    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....

You my friend are amazing ! I must say you are very creative and what a smart way to let his neighbors and friends of his family know exactly who they live next to. Whether he stole snakes or robbed a bank it doesn't matter a thief is a thief no matter how you look at it. Very very smart Mr. Stuart. I'm very impressed. Thank you for taking a stand and not allowing this to go unpunished. Connor this looks like your problems are going to get much much bigger. Now your school is involved your neighbors friends of your family. Wow dude just give the guy his Damn snakes back. Why would you even want to drag this out ? If someone posted online my school my principles, as well as my neighbors i would be passed out from pure fear alone. Just make it right. This doesn't need to go even further, but make no mistake none of this will stop until the animals are returned. I live in New Jersey. I have off all next week. If you can't pay to return the animals I can meet you in Connecticut somewhere and collect them. I have no problem paying to ship them back to there rightful owner.

Thank you Samantha, but I can't take credit for the card idea. Someone else mentioned it on here, but I can't remember who. I just want Kyle to get his animals back or equal value in cash.
Kudos to you! That is a very generous offer to drive, pick up, and then ship Kyle his geckos all on your dime. If Connor doesn't see this as an opportunity to straighten things out, he is more ignorant than we all think.

Or the animals are all already dead...

He claims they are dead. But has yet to prove it! I offered to pick up the geckos from him and return them to kile but he never bothered to take me up on that offer! If they are alive this could all be very easily ended.. if they aren't he needs to find a way to prove it!
 
I just want to help the O.P. if the shoe were on the other foot... I would be completely and utterly devastated. I love my animals. I couldn't imagine. The money is nothing to me. I would be worried sick about my animals. Especially if they were stolen from me. I just want to do right by the O.P. if the shoe was on the other foot. I would pray to god someone else would be kind enough to do right by me and return the favor.
 
Oh I hope they aren't dead. That would be terrible news ;-(
Connor you need to face what you have done. Are the animals alive or not ? Photos please.
 
He did not steal any snakes, however he would have made off with several bearded dragons had I let him. He will continue to hide and lurk in the shadows

All of this info has already been forwarded to the Stratford police and to his mother. I also have made numerous attempts offline to help him end this. He knows he has done wrong, I believe he is truly sorry for getting caught. His actions speak volumes to me, he is definitely not trustworthy. Sorry Connor, I feel that I give you more than enough opportunities.

Exactly! He is sorry that he has gotten caught, but not sorry that he scammed someone out of their animals.

As young as he has started, I believe he will become a career criminal, moving on to bigger things as soon as he is able. So many names come to mind ... It is also quite probable that he didn't start with reptiles/animals, started with something smaller and got away with it, which raised his confidence. What Connor doesn't realize, that the majority of the reptile community sticks together and will help another member as much as they possibly can.

Connor, will not on his own, acquiesce and return the geckos or send money. His ego will prevent that from happening, along with his justification as to why he did it.
 
I don't know the applicable law where Conner lives, but in some states his parents are can be legally obligated to pay for his actions. I wonder if he has even thought about this?
 
The only person that could make that happen would be Kile. He doesn't seem to be bothered enough by the situation at hand to do anything about it.
 
Too bad, because if the parents got hit financially, then maybe they could nip his behavior before he lands up incarcerated at a state facility.
 
I sure hope the parents don't know about it !!! can you imagine if they were like that Owen dude and his girlfriend :(
where they would be proud and even give him tips on how to scam others ???
I prefer to think they don't know and when they do, they will have a talk with him..

love the mail plan.... hell I would even chip in $$ if the costs run you up..:)
 
Connor is still signing in to his fauna account.. I hope he doesn't think this has gone away and we all forgot.. we didn't forget connor! This won't go away!

He is here quiet a bit. He has contacted others about trades as well. Hopefully he will not be able to scam anyone else.
 
Connor... we still haven't forgotten! Still waiting for you to do the right thing! You keep checking you fauna.. this won't go away!!!
 
So Kile, have you been paid by Connor yet?

Several people have been sitting on additional information waiting for him to do the right thing, perhaps their patience will run out if he has not taken care of you already.
