    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....

4th of July eggs, Woohoo

Got this pic last night from my partner Rob who has the snakes for now as I just moved over into Oregon recently.

Good luck with those! And yeah, I see at least 1 queenbee in there...maybe 2! ;) But that's really bizarre that momma didn't wrap ANY of them.
 
I definately can't wait to see the results of this clutch queen bees are awesome and I'm curious as to what the female could smell or if thats even the reason she didn't wrap them up. Wierd. I hope they all hatch and are fertile.
 
I've had plenty that look weak when they are first laid like only half or less has veins but all have hatched so time will tell but I'm betting they will be fine :thumbsup:
 
I agree, I've had a few eggs where the veins were weak and now they're strong and doing great. I wouldn't worry!!
 
good luck on your odds. hopefully you'll get at least half queenbees. :D unfortunately, i don't think my bee is going to go this year...
