    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 am offering my male Hog Island Boa. I bought this guy from Vincent Russo in 2013, so he's the real deal. He's been a great snake with a good temperament. I am downsizing my collection. I am asking $375 plus shipping.

No offense John, but you've offered to purchase a few animals on FC recently. You've cited your wife's anger, diabetes, and hospital bills as reasons why you can't follow through. I care about this animal and I wouldn't offer him to an uncertain future.

I recommend that you head over to Scott Smith's All Animal Expo in Wheaton, IL. It is an event that happens twice each month. Spend time there getting to know people and animals. You will find a great snake there.

I'm sure that's not what you wanted to hear, but I am confident you'll be happier with your decision in the long run. Best of luck, John.
 
You've either invented a new way to troll people, you're a brilliant comedian, or you really are bad with computers.
 
I am Extrmemely bad with sir. old school dont even text!It was late early in the morning She got up saw my purpose AND WAS MADDD! How ever we have patched things up, and
I can buy the snake! please call me I want it! for my breeding proceject.For real!!!y Thanks.John Carlson 630 564 7739 PLEASE dont text
 
Janine is proving to be quite a husbandry challenge! I can definitely understand why you'd want to upgrade to a lower maintenance serpent, like this Boa.
I'd recommend you wait until Janine goes into shed to resume your quest for her replacement. When her eyes are opaque message me and I'll help you find the snake of your dreams. Also, if you keep her enclosure extra dry she'll have a hard time getting her outer layer off and you'll have even more leeway.

Best wishesss.
