    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....

Good Guy eldiablokid John Romeo !!!

I'd like to take a minute to talk about my dealings with an amazing snake breeder and overall good guy here on fauna. I've only bought a reptile from reputable online breeders a handful of times, both here on fauna and from companies like LLLreptile. But, of all the times I ordered a snake online and have it shipped to me here in Alaska John Romeo of New Jersey is the most amazing person I've ever dealt with. I saw his ad for a big adult female Suriname boa and when I first saw the picture it was love at first sight. I had to have her!! So I began talking to John. I didn't have enough to pay for her and the shipping which was as much as the snake herself. John told me that there were twelve people interested in her. He waited for me to come up with the money. He could tell how badly I wanted her. He waited for me when there were TWELVE OTHER PEOPLE waiting before me. I finally paid for her, and then he waited another week for me to come up with the shipping money. To cut this short she arrived insulated and warm, and other than being a little pissy she is and was perfectly healthy. I've been in constant contact with John. He went above and beyond to make sure the boa was healthy and safe and that I was happy, which I very much am!!! When I first got her in my arms I almost cried. She's soooooo beautiful, and I love her! She fits right in with my family of boas. All of John's advice was above and beyond, and I've talked to him almost every day in the past couple weeks. He's an example of what customer service SHOULD BE in the reptile community. Now on my daily visits to fauna I am keeping a close eye for ads by John Romeo. The next addition to my family is very likely to come from him. Thank you for everything John!!!!!
