    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....

First Pip!!

Absolutely will be taking LOTS of pics.

Just got home from work and the little one is still playing shy, still in the egg. But, two other eggs have pretty much collapsed and I can feel the snakes inside so they should be piping soon. :D
 
Very cool! My second clutch of the season should be pipping in a week or so. Can't wait to see some Pastels in that one! Congrats!
 
You guys are making me so excited!!! This is my first year and the first clutch is due to hatch in 3 weeks -- the waiting is starting to kill me. I can't wait to see little noses! But your baby pics will have to suffice for now. :yesnod:
 
2nd egg has piped in the last hour. Both had their heads out but of course, as soon as I took the lid off for a pic, poof, back into the eggs. More pics coming as soon as they cooperate..lol
 
They decided to let me take their picture tonight. The 2nd looks to be a normal.
