    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....

Our rescue has room for him at the moment. Or if you are in Central PA there is another rescue in your area that may be able to take him.

Mike, I'd caution you against that sale, as I noticed Nauticawear2 is in AZ, where private possession of crocodilians is restricted.

Yaeh, it would be a quick $100, but an illegal sale can end up costing both the buyer and seller a lot more than that.
 
Thanks Everyone,
I will sell the alligator to you for $100 if you can show me proof of a valid Arizona wildlife permit. I now have a list of the states where you need a permit and I will use it. Thanks, Steve

Mike, this is another one that I'd caution you about, as this person is also asking you to be party to a crime. Alligators are listed as Class I wildlife in TN, and their possession has been severely restricted since 1991.

I don't know what it is as of late with people asking sellers to ship them animals that they (the would-be buyer) should know they cannot legally possess. It puts the seller in a bad situation should something happen.

With the attention that the herp industry has received from state wildlife agencies as well as USFWS as of late, I wouldn't be surprised if we're seeing yet another "covert" operation from one or more of the agencies.
 
alligator

If you still have that alligator I breed reptiles and have an outdoor pond. I can only keep him outside for about 6-7 months of the year but I have an indoor pool to keep him in so if you still have him email me at [email protected] THanx
