    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....

Finally, the perfect enclosure from jmexotics on ebay

Ever since I bought a pair of veileds a few weeks ago who were housed together in a tank that was too small and totally lacking in ventilation, I have been experimenting expensively with an enclosure that made him happy. We separated them so that the male was alone in the glass tank and increased ventilation somewhat, still stayed too dark. We put him in an open hibiscus tree and for some reason he got down and wandered around the room, which of course turned him absolutely black. Then for only $90 shipped I got a huge bird cage from a guy on ebay. I would recommend this route to anyone. The bars are half an inch apart, so lots of ventilation but an adult couldn't escape through them. There are doors on all sides for easy access to plants, food cups, etc, and the tray at the bottom slides out without having to open or dig into the cage to clean it. The cage is 55 in high by 30 in wide by 18 in deep. I personally have some live pothos plus several artificial plants and vines for climbing, plus the cage itself is good for gripping and climbing. I keep him in his own room and there is a humidifier if necessary but so far the measurements have stayed between 50 and 65. Because of the bars, there are built in places to hang drippers and clamp his uvb/heat lamp. It's perfect! With all the space for climbing plus the added doors and removable trays so that I don't have to disturb him for basic care he is ecstatic and his colors have been great!! I got this cage from jmexotics on ebay who has an ebay store with similar items. He's got lots of great stuff at pretty reasonable prices. If you have adult chameleons that need an ideal situation affordably, you should definitely check it out. :yesnod:
