    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....

Bad Guy Bad Trade deal with Jason Reed

Mike Powell posted on business FB page this morning that his house was struck by lightning and is a total loss. Fortunately the snake he got from Jason is the only one that died as he was keeping it there, away from the rest of his collection which is housed a mile away.

He has minimal internet access and has a lot going on so don't expect immediate updates.
 
The snake pictured is supposedly the "healthy" snake. The one that had a broken tooth and mouth swelling hasn't been shipped yet to my understanding.

From what I have read, you are correct.

Well, if that happened, I can see where it could have the potential of bringing forth more complications in this deal.

You guys and gals don't really think that snake is eggbound do you?

That snake is (was) in need of a good enema.
On a serious note, a swim/soak, in warm/tepid water, is what I would have tried before moving on to another step.
Could have been a hardened urate, that was not allowing passage of feces, or another such problem.
'Course, doing anything, for the snake, is a moot point, now, since it seems that it has passed away from lightning hitting the house that the snake was in.:(
