    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....

Cresteds are about to hatch?

I have had these two eggs for exactly 80 days and I've kept them originally at 72-73 for around half of those days. The other half i kept them around at 75-76 degrees. One of the eggs (left one) Oozed a crazy amount of goo and had made a small hole in it yesterday morning. (I could have sworn it moved too) (It also oozed around 4 days ago with no visible holes.) It is considerably smaller now too. There is no stench that i can smell, and it doesnt seem rotted either. The one on the right seems pretty healthy and about to hatch. Its pretty bloated so I'm guessing its going to be okay?

The one on the right can hatch anytime, you never know when exactly. Sometimes you just look in the incubator and poof there's a baby sitting there.

I don't know what's up with the egg on the left, it's entirely possible that it tried to hatch and drowned in the egg.
 
Thanks a ton bad-one, I really mean it lol. You've helped me so much with the info on here. I actually just found that the one on the right just hatched. It looks like its parents with its brown yellow colorings. :D (Its a flame too) I'm guessing the other one is dead. I'm itching to open it up, but it didn't decompose yet so i guess ill have to wait still. Thanks again!
 
Pics :D

So yeah, There is the baby. (Don't have a name for it yet) : o (And the parents Roofa and Surge)
