    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....

Here's the story, before investing in Boaphile caging and racks, I built my own rack that I was able to hold most of my boa collection in. The rack themselves are no longer available as they have been used for other purposes. However, the sterilite containers are. These containers are roughly (it's been a while since measuring them) 40 inches long by 20 inches wide and 7 inches tall. These are certainly not ideal for an adult boa however they will work great for juvenile as well as bp's. I have roughly 25-30 of these, with locking lids available free for the taking.

We are renting a dumpster to do some spring cleaning starting on August 3rd and if they are still here when the dumpster arrives then out they go. They already have holes drilled and are in good shape overall. With a little bit of cleaning (they are out in my barn right now) they will last you for years.

Again, they are free for the taking. I spent over $500 for these if memory serves me right and here you can get them for free! Must be able to pick up in the 61953 zip code. I can certainly assist in the loading.

Mike, I will make you a deal. I'll hold them until then but if you don't show up I'll start charging you a storage fee! :)

I really did not want to throw them away. While some may need a little bit here and there, they are simply too nice to see get thrown away. They are yours for the taking. I'll go count them this weekend and let you know as I don't know if they would all fit in a standard van.

Mike, I went to the barn to get an accurate count of these and it appears as though my children have used them at some point to build a small clubhouse. Evidently, clubhouse use, as well as playing WAR, was not an intended design of these as quite a few of them now have chips/holes. The majority are no longer suitable for their intended uses. I will be putting them in the dumpster this weekend.
