    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....

Field collector in Texas wanted!

Hello all,
I am wanting to start a captive breeding stock of some Texas snake species. I need some wild caught individuals first though. I would like to get atleast 1.1 of each species listed:

Arizona elegans (Eastern Glossy Snake)
Bogertophis subocularis (Trans-Pecos Rat Snake)
Cemophora coccinea (Scarlet Snake)
Drymobius margaritiferus (Speckled Racer)
Elaphe bairdi (Baird's Rat Snake)
Gyalopion canum (Western Hooknose Snake)
Liochlorophis vernalis (Smooth Green Snake)
Opheodrys aestivus (Rough Green Snake)
Pituophis catenifer (Gopher Snake)
Pituophis ruthveni (Louisiana Pine Snake)
Rhinocheilus lecontei (Longnose Snake) (MY MAIN FOCUS!!!)

If you are interested in collecting any of these species for me email me a [email protected]. I WILL NOT be buying these for 1-2 months. But email me the what you would charge for each of these species when you inquire please, and remember, they will be WC, so prices should be fitting.

Thanks
Jon Ginter

Not to mention...

Half of those will be difficult feeders in regards to voluntarily feeding and the food item. Some of those are available a lot closer to you also.
