    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 did a short video of the egg incubating containers on my racks the other day. When you view it, notice all the shoe boxes with orange dots on them. Those are clutches that have hatched within the past 10 days and will need to be set up over the next several days. I have found it takes around 10 days after the first one to pip, before all of them have had their post hatching shed and be ready to set up and offer food.

BTW, since I took this video, I put orange dots on about 30 more containers..... :( Yup, getting REAL deep into my busy season now... And my back starts hurting a whole lot sooner than it did last year. This is going to be a LONG several months ahead of me....

 
Dang that's a LOT of clutches Rich!!!

Looks like you're going to be swamped! I'm envious.

Nice video too.


Best of luck with all of the babies.
