    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....

so hognoses are puff adders, eh?

I guess I am the moron then.

The link I had was the first time I had seen a colubrid refered to as an adder.

Well I feel good knowing I entertained you hee hee
 
Don't feel bad

I didn't know that either. I just thought it may be true after I viewed your link, so I googled "Hog nose snake puff adder"
 
Even though I didn't read

the links, my father from Alabama grew up knowing that the hognose snake of the southeast was in fact called the " spreading adder . And the common skink while a juvenile which had the blue tail was poisonous while it had the blue. So, if one was to capture the skink and break off the blue part of the tail, the skink lizard was not poisonous anymore ! :rofl:
