    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....

My second mottled female D. m rubidus began oviposition yesterday and produced 16 eggs. This is my most anticipated clutch, as the sire is the WC mottled male from the Gladys Porter Zoo. With a little luck and blessings from above, we'll see what comes of these pairings in 100-120 days...

Best regards,

Jeff
 
Congratulations, Jeff! I realize how important your work is due to the extreme rarity of this species. Hopefully, over time, you will be able to acquire other specimens and further propagate this splendid Dry, diversifying the genetic pool. Keep up the good work. What are your future plans for this species?
