• 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....

Sad to say I would NOT involve the department of Agriculture, just look at what they're already doing to us exotic owners in ohio. Involving them would just make everything much worse. If it's really that bad something needs done, maybe what someone else said, record your own video and threaten to turn them in if it doesn't improve and stay that way.

The Ohio department of Agriculture does NOT know what they're doing with exotics and I have no clue why they would give those people power over these animals..

His place has been like that for a long long time. When I first moved to Columbus 15 years ago I was pretty to have a reptile specific shop so close. That lasted about 30 seconds after walking in the door. All of the accounts of the conditions there are exactly as described, and honestly somewhat understated. I couldnt possibly write down all of the issues I've seen in one post but if you can imagine any horrible scenario it more than likely would be fitting. And nothing has changed for at least the last 15 years that I can speak of. There's been multiple complaints about it to no avail.
