    =====================

    I am still waiting on my developer to finish up on the Classifieds Control Panel so I can use it to encourage members into becoming paying members. Google Adsense has become a real burden on the viewing of this site, but honestly it is the ONLY source of income now that keeps it afloat. I tried offering disabling the ads being viewed by paying members, but apparently that is not enough incentive. Quite frankly, Google Adsense has dropped down to where it barely brings in enough daily to match even a single paid member per day. But it still gets the bills paid. But at what cost?

    So even without the classifieds control panel being complete, I believe I am going to have to disable those Google ads completely and likely disable some options here that have been free since going to the new platform. Like classified ad bumping, member name changes, and anything else I can use to encourage this site to be supported by the members instead of the Google Adsense ads.

    But there is risk involved. I will not pay out of pocket for very long during this last ditch experimental effort. If I find that the membership does not want to support this site with memberships, then I cannot support your being able to post your classified ads here for free. No, I am not intending to start charging for your posting ads here. I will just shut the site down and that will be it. I will be done with FaunaClassifieds. I certainly don't need this, and can live the rest of my life just fine without it. If I see that no one else really wants it to survive neither, then so be it. It goes away and you all can just go elsewhere to advertise your animals and merchandise.

    Not sure when this will take place, and I don't intend to give any further warning concerning the disabling of the Google Adsense. Just as there probably won't be any warning if I decide to close down this site. You will just come here and there will be some sort of message that the site is gone, and you have a nice day.

    I have been trying to make a go of this site for a very long time. And quite frankly, I am just tired of trying. I had hoped that enough people would be willing to help me help you all have a free outlet to offer your stuff for sale. But every year I see less and less people coming to this site, much less supporting it financially. That is fine. I tried. I retired the SerpenCo business about 14 years ago, so retiring out of this business completely is not that big if a step for me, nor will it be especially painful to do. When I was in Thailand, I did not check in here for three weeks. I didn't miss it even a little bit. So if you all want it to remain, it will be in your hands. I really don't care either way.

    =====================
    Some people have indicated that finding the method to contribute is rather difficult. And I have to admit, that it is not all that obvious. So to help, here is a thread to help as a quide. How to become a contributing member of FaunaClassifieds.

    And for the record, I will be shutting down the Google Adsense ads on January 1, 2025.

    First bearded dragon!

    I just got my first bearded. Hes just a normal I think, but very pretty. Got him at a local reptile show. When I brought him home he looked very grey. I read that it was due to stress and lack of heat. So right now I've got a 100watt clamp lamp above the tank, a 10watt UVB until I get to the...

    Boa drinking profusely/Red shaded belly?

    I've got a female, 6ft Columbia red tail. Tonight I noticed that when I filled her water, she went straight for it and started drinking, and hasn't stopped for close to 20 minutes. She also seems to run the front of her nose along the bottom of the dish. When I took her out to look at her, her...

    Just bought a male albino and female sunglow boa from Anthony. These are my first morphs ever bought and it was a very pleasant experience.

    Building Reptile Cages

    I know that most of you will say, its better to just buy them already made from somewhere else. I'm one of those people though who have the means, opportunity, and enjoys the satisfaction of a job well done, to do it cheaper and probably faster. So if your still here after that, here's my...

    Pinkie Feeders

    How do I know when a Pinkie feeder has gone bad? Some of mine have many black areas on them. I don't know if this is because of them being pinkies still or what. I just want to find out so I don't feed my snake something bad. Thanks.

    New Corn Snake (Morph?)

    So, because of a screw up with a "motley sulfur" that the pet store gave me, they gave me another one of my choice free. This one was labeled "motley ghost", but of course, I'm skeptical. I'll post pics and let you all decide what you think it is, but even if its not what it was labeled as, I...

    Skink Species Identification

    I caught this skink on my porch and was wondering if anyone could identify the species for me so I could learn more about him. I've looked in a species book and it looks like a broad headed skink IN the book, but not everywhere I look online. I'm thinking it might be a Southeastern 5 lined...

    Indonesian Tree Boa

    Today at my favorite pet store down town, I saw for the first time a little Indonesian Tree Boa that they had at the counter. I was able to hold him and he was just amazing, completely took my breath away. So I'm wondering if anyone here has ever worked with them before? I know I want my next...

    Gagging sounds and attitude change?

    So, last night I woke up to a horrid sound that was similar to that of an animal forcefully regurgitating. I got up and turned on the light and the sound stopped and I wasn't sure who it was as I have more than one snake. A couple hours later, it happened again. I think I've figured out who it...

    My ball python won't eat from the head! o.O

    My female ball python (about 3ft and we think 3 years old or so) seems to always have trouble eating. Well tonight shes starting to freak me out a little bit. We give her the mouse like we do our other ball pythons but she doesn't reposition to eat from the head or even the tail end. She is...

    How to Clean Heat Tape?

    When we got our boas they came with a cage that the heat tape had just been laying inside of. Well we just spent 3 hours disassembling the cage because it was such a mess. We cleaned it up and now have a very nice frame to use for rebuilding their cage to be nicer. But since the heat tape was...

    Wanted Boa Constrictor

    I am looking for a Boa within the price range of 200$. I would prefer it be fed F/T, but if not then live will be fine. I would also prefer it be a younger snake, and handled daily to work with its temperament. My xbox is still up for offer for snakes but if no one messages me about that, then I...

    Alright, I have narrowed down my choices of my next snake to 4. So at this points I am going to ask for yalls input on which one would be the best. First one, Hognose snake. I love the way they look. I have read much about them and I like the idea that they stay kind of small. I've also read...
