    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....

Hello,

A couple of years ago I had purchased two of these from a gentleman at a reptile show in Pennsylvania [ I think the Hamburg show]. Regardless, I am trying to get in touch with the gentleman I had purchased them from. He had a breeding operation in New Jersey [I think]. He was middle aged, incredibly knowledgeable and was working on a project to try to discern between the species from the mainland and those from Taiwan. Anyway, these were surplus babies that he was selling.

I know this is vague, but if anyone can provide assistance, it would be great appreciated.

Cheers,

Huck

Ray Farrell produces a lot of babies up that way and he is tuned in to the locale differences.
