• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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 everyone, I have been keeping turtles and tortoises for about - let's just say a long time, and just completed a purchase with Chris Bell. Chris is a stand up guy, who shipped on time, and packaged the turtle perfectly. His communication was perfect, he sent a couple of extra pictures at my request, and answered the questions that I had on the turtle. In speaking to Chris, you realize that he has a very good knowledge base, and takes pride in the hobby.

In this day and age of scammers, liars, and cheats, you can count on Chris to handle the transaction honestly.

Thank you Chris.
