    **************************************************
    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....

Wednesday is my birthday so for my birthday mom bought me the geko guide. I was flipping through it and got to see what the pores are supposed to look like for a make. I took my baby out and looked closely and realized that hektor isnt a he................its a her. My mom and I renamed her Chikita because she looks like a ripe bananna.
 
hehe, how cute :) Happy birthday!

How old is your baby? Leos pretty much all look female for a while, usually about 3-4 months until you can tell for sure.
 
Well i have had her for 3 months and i think she was about a month old when i got her and that was back in novemeber after my bf left me for my best friend. I needed something to get my mind off of crying so when i went to buy my new tarantula. i saw her in the tank with the other leo's and decided to get her. I am not sorry for the spur of the momemt puchase. In the beginning she only ate about 2-3 crickets a day. she is now up to 5-6 of not more crickets a day. my next puchase for her will be a gram scale so i can weigh her.
