    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....

Hello again Gentlemen and Ladies,
I'm writing because I'm considering getting a couple ackies and trying to breed them. I'd love to breed pharoah, but obviously that would take quite alot of space to house two nile monitors...it's expensive enough to house and feed one!
I've been looking over the ackie information on this site, and looking around on the internet, and I do believe that they are something I want to try. My question is: I know ackies aren't sexually dimorphic, but is their DNA sexing services available like the bird industry has? I've been breeding lovebirds for a while, and if a customer wants a true pair I can send a toenail clipping into a lab and they will send me the sex of the bird. Has anyone heard of this for reptiles? If not, how do you seasoned ackie breeders acquire true pairs? Also, I might not be looking in the right places, and forgive me if I'm being redundant, but what humidity do ackies prefer?
Thank you everyone for your time and advice.
Jon
