    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

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


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Does anyone know about this person? I emailed her about her albino red tail. about a week ago. Her email came threw as Nikki Thompson not Kelly Nicole Harper. She lives a few hours away from me and has hog nose snakes for sale. When told her she can't sell them in our state she basically ignores me. After checking her threads she has multiple different reptiles on here for sale. She mostly wants to trade rather then sell. Then after talking to local rescues in her in that area yesterday they all state she's a reptile flipper and will bug you constantly if it's something she really wants to flip. I thought I'd get on here and ask around to see if anyone knew her personally or did business with her? :shrug01:

Here's her email from her to me.

I'm extremely sorry but I have no idea who you're talking to or what you're talking about.
I don't bug anybody about animals and yes, I have been trying to trade before but now selling.
I loose a lot of emails and get stood-up by a lot of people through CG and I apologize if you got offended.
And I have done research and cannot find anywhere that it is illegal to sell Western Hognoses out of Missouri. If someone can show me proof, then I won't.
And I don't appreciate being called a "game thief" or "reptile-flipper" because I am neither!
I love reptiles and the only place I can find friends with the same passion is this website, why would I scam and jeopardize that?
And "hear-say" is not anything close to facts.
AS FOR MY NAME. My name is KELLEY NICOLE THOMPSON, I go by NIKKI. I have not figured out how to change my last name on here. When I joined, I was in an engagement and thought I might as well use his last name, but hey, it didn't work out. I'm sorry this is causing an issue.
And WHO THE HECK are these "Local Rescues"!? I have no idea what you're talking about!! Please don't accuse me until you get your facts straight.
 
BY THE WAY IT HAS BEEN CONFIRMED THAT WESTERNS ARE NOT ILLEGAL TO SELL OUT OF MISSOURI. I was told even if they were Easterns, if I had paperwork stating I bought them from a breeder in MO, I could sell them. It IS illegal to capture and sell wild-caught Easterns out of MO. But, you cannot FIND Western Hognoses in MO. I'm doing nothing wrong. Just thought you should know that since it seems to be bothering you so much.
 
Ok, this will be my last post to this board.
The information I was given was wrong.
I spoke to a Conservationist and they are making the Western Hognose an indigenous species to Missouri because there have been pockets of the species showing up close to the state. I will delete the ad(s), and now understand they cannot be sold here w/o a permit. I have contacted the owner of these snakes and informed him of the issue.
THIS IS VERY NEW and I APOLOGIZE.
If anyone reading this has any further questions, please PM or email me.
Thank you.
 
Nikki seems very legit, and an honest person, i think you should of pm'd on here instead of emailing, as emails can get tossed around pms on here won't go away unless unread or it will say Unread notification. Especially since you had no idea if she was married, divorced or what. I know this was an inquiry, but still should of asked before accusing. Some laws change without anyone knowing about it.
