    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....

I was recently contacted by a lady who was up until recently was Bobby Varnyards neighbor. She told me that Bobby had left the place he kept his Tegu collection. She then told me that as of last count there are 27 Tegus that he left behind with some dead from malnutrition. I could only figure that they were in hibernation until recently. She also observed Tegus eating the remains of other Tegus. She is concerned for the future well being of the animals left. She said that she was able to contact Bobby and stated that he does not plan to return to the area. Animal control is going to collect a portion of them at the beginning of the week and then destroy after 5 days if a licensed animal rehabber does not turn up in the area. Then take care of the rest soon after. I will not post her phone number but if someone in the area knows of someone who can help let me know and I'll forward the information to her. I breed snakes and do not have the facilities to assist.

Thank You, Scott Sweeney
