    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....

Baby Nile Monitor Chunk Missing From Tail

So I recently picked up a baby Niloticus. THOUGHT we looked him over pretty good but now I've noticed he's missing a bit of the ridge on his tail. I have a grown Savannah female, an almost grown Savannah male, and a juvenile Argus but none of them have any battle scars so I have no experience in this area of Monitor Lizards. It's cosmetic and he's doing great but anyone know if it will grow back? Experience in raising a tiny baby with a wound up to a large animal would be greatly appreciated. I can guess just like anyone. My guess is it won't but may form a little smoother as he grows? No idea though for sure. He was taken out of his enclosure for these pics.
