    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

    Yard-herping in northeast AZ

    I moved out to Az about a month ago. I guess I'll use this thread to periodically chronicle whatever reptiles I find wandering across the property. Aside from the countless little fence lizards and skinks that seem to be everywhere, I've only come across a couple of things worth mentioning...

    Odd new error message when opening the site.

    I tried to get on the site a little while ago, and was greeted with an error message stating my IP address had been banned. It lasted a good 15 minutes or so before finally letting me in. Anyone else seen this?

    SFD (Snake Fungal Disease) General Discussion.

    This thread is for the specific discussion of SFD, carried over from an off-topic discussion on the BOI. Again, this is meant to discuss all things related to Snake Fungal Disease - diagnosis, treatment, cause, possible preventative measures, ramifications for the herp community, etc -...

    Suggestion: Delete all ads from banned members.

    Some recent classifieds ads have shown that some members aren't very adept at interpreting even the most blatantly obvious context clues. Apparently, having a Mod point out that a seller is banned and has used stolen pictures just isn't enough to dissuade some people from pursuing a...

    "Waiting for www.faunaads.com..."

    I've been having this intermittent issue for a few months, and Fauna is the only site I frequent that seems to be giving me this problem. Sometimes, when trying to load or refresh a page, I'll get the green background and the Fauna logo in the upper-left corner of the page; but that's all that...

    Info Brocthecroc - Justin Wood (aka Jason Williams?) Sellers Beware.

    I woke up today to find a nifty little nasty-gram in my profile Visitor Messages. Once I refreshed my memory on exactly who the guy is, I'd intended to bump whatever Bad Guy thread that he surely had by now. To my chagrin, he's somehow managed to avoid having his very own thread. Well, I...

    Reminder: Fauna DOES have a chat room..

    We don't see a whole lot of new faces in chat, so I thought I'd make it known that there actually is a chat room on this site. Wanna talk to fellow reptile enthusiasts in real-time? Come on in and say "hello". You'll want to make sure you have Java installed, otherwise you won't be able to...

    Change BOI default search parameter?

    Apparently, when one does a BOI search, it's default setting is to search the entire post for whatever name you enter in the search field. If someone has been very active on the BOI, it's entirely possible that threads bearing their own name in the title may get buried and not show up in the...

    Culling normal offspring because they're "ugly". Ethical?

    This is a debate that's been raging in the chat room for the past couple of days. A couple of individuals have advocated culling their normal offspring because they're not attractive, and, as such, wouldn't possibly be properly cared for, if they were to be sold as pets. Their justification...

    Has anyone shipped to Alaska?

    Unless yet another deal falls through, I'll likely be shipping a reasonably large (7'+) snake to Alaska. I'll be buying a large snake shipping kit from SYR and will also be using their shipping service as well. I picture the shipping itself to be a logistical nightmare considering the length...

    Would you consider this healthy and well started..?

    I picked up a baby sav monitor last night. I could tell right off the bat that it was skinny and lethargic, but it was also somewhat chilly so I decided to take it home and see if it would rally after being heated up. Today it's still just as lethargic as last night. It seems too weak to even...
