• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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....

Work in progress

I'm building a new cage and figured I would share what I got so far.

you'll find out quickly that the internal framework becomes a pain at cleaning time. Reptiles like to poop in corners and water dishes.
 
What did this cost you start to finish?

Honestly, I have no idea. 2x4's downt cost much. the plywood was a little pricier. but I think it was 30 for the sliding glass tracks, an almost 80 for the glass itself. 20 or so for the wire used for the vents on the side and to seperate the lights on top. Then miscelanous for screws, paint, caulk, the handles and the glue to go on the glass, and I insulated the bottom and the sides to help with heating. I would say I proably spend 200 to maybe 250. I still need to finish the stand, and put the trim on it.
