    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....

Hey everyone, I just decided (a bit late, I suppose) that I should post this intro. I have been "lurking" the forums off and on since like June of '11, but more intensively since August this year. I have owned quite a few herps - pythons(balls, retics, a burm, and a white-lipped), rat snakes(never again), corn snakes, milk snakes, beardies, Asian vines, iguanas, chameleons, and I'm sure that I forgot something. I currently only have ball pythons. When I moved about a year ago, I had to sell everything in a very short period of time. It ended up with me practically giving away everything.

Now I am back on the scene again(yay!) and this time my parents own a 23 acre parcel of land that I am putting a large building on to contain all my interests. No more insane collection reductions for me!

I am working on getting a breeding set up running with my ball pythons.

Uhhh... I have spent in the thousands of hours researching various herps as well as a fair bit(no where near as much as many of the people here!) of experience dealing with several different species.

Eventually, my goals are to have a very large breeding system built for balls and retics. After which I am totally going to get a few hots!

Errr... I'm originally from FL, moved here about 8 years ago. I'm 22 years old. Meh, good enough?
