    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....

I, sadly, think it is time I part with my Candoia carinata carinata. I am located in Boston and really don't want to ship. These are longish term, presumably wild caught animals, that I've had from 18 months to about 4 years. They come from Jerry C, Ben Siegel, and Ray Pittzer. I just don't have the skill or facilities to attempt breeding, and I think they should go to someone that might have some luck with that. Four of the five feed fine on rodents (I generally use live pinkies/fuzzies), the one image (small striped one) only has fed on lizards/frogs, but I've not tried hard to switch... this one is also the sluggish one of the group, it always was, except when an anole was introduced. The two bigger striped animals are robust and presumably female, I believe the smaller (in girth) animals are male, but I'll be damned if I can see spurs. I just don't. Still, these were sold to me a 2 females and 3 males. No guarantees on that.

I can meet at a reasonable mid point. I would like $350 for the group, which is less than I paid. I can try to take more (cell phone) pics if you'd like. No splitting the group.

I hate to let these go. I love this genus, I just love it, it is just beyond my beginner status.

(I can only post pics of four. The fifth is a pale cream with herringbone type hatches... for lack of a better term)

Are these still available?

They are still available, but they're in winter mode now (they all seem to shut down feeding for 3-4 mos each winter). I had interest, but everyone wanted me to ship or trade. I don't want to ship and am only open to trades for Western Fox Snakes.
