    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....

Come To Daytona NRBE!!!
If you are interested in the Herp Industry and Hobby you simply must come to the National Reptile Breeders Expo in Daytona this year! All the tables are SOLD OUT! The Who's Who of the Industry will be vending or walking around the floor and hanging out.
Wayne Hill and USARK representatives and attorneys met with Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) to get the ground rules straight on how to do business with NO PROBLEMS. We all agreed on a format and a limited presence from FWC on the show floor. All laws must be obeyed and USARK is working hard to smooth out the bumps for the industry in Florida. We play by the rules and FWC does their job in an even handed way. So come one, come all... to the place where it all started NRBE! YOU HAVE TO BE THERE!!!
This year the National Reptile Breeders Expo will benefit USARK with it's fundraising auction on Saturday night August 20th.
Wayne Hill has never agreed to have his auction benefit the same organization twice. He realizes the dire place our young industry is in facing the Rule Change at US Fish & Wildlife Service. He knows that the money that goes to USARK will go directly towards fighting this biggest threat we have ever faced to our hobby and businesses. Please donate generously to fund this Big Fight! You don't have to be vending or in attendance to donate.... and you can donate anything you like that has value; collectables, electronics, books, art, curios, antiques, animals, caging, dry goods... anything of value. If you are a big name in this business please donate something special.... This is our last and best chance to defeat this federal rule-making that threatens the entire industry. The precedent set he re could impact Ball pythons, Leopard Geckos and anything non-native to the US. Money raised will go directly to fund this fight. If you ever wanted to do something this is the time!!! Zoo Med will match all funds raised up to $100,000 for the year.
REPTILES Magazine is hosting an auction party from 7-9pm on Saturday night proceeding the Auction... Come Party with the Reptile Nation!!
