    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....

Thanks for checking my pics out! I'll be expecting my next couple of clutches in 3-4 weeks. Some really cool stuff Starting out with the simple stuff and getting crazy to close the year. Hope everyone is having an awesome season.

Nice snakes, congratulations!

My favorite out of that whole bunch is the reduced patterned female pastel. She might be "only" a one gene animal but she's holding her own in some good competition. She looks like a holdback.

1st picture = attack of the blood veins! (big picture):D

Great looking group of BPs, especially for first two clutches ever. The Hypos are great!
 
Yep, gotta agree Brian. Those babies are looking good! Congrats man.

Thanks a lot Brendan :)

She is the second holdback so far. I'll be keeping her and the Butter Hypo. Thanks Deb :)
