    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....

Hi,

He's got some Star tortoises that I'm interested in. I can't find any info on him, and a good word or two would help me feel better about sending him money.

Hi, Mike. I just had dinner with Arthur and some mutual friends. He is a solid guy and I would have zero issues dealing with him. He is a newer member, but the animals are legitimate and I think you will be happy if you make a selection. As usual, I recommend getting photos and details to the point of satisfaction prior to purchase, but Arthur is a trustworthy guy to me.

To anyone who's interested,

I wound up buying two Indian Star tortoises from Arthur.

I could not be happier about the purchase. He kept in touch about shipping, since the weather was so bad up here in NJ. The animals were packaged beautifully, and the Stars were even better than I'd hoped. They are little eating machines, heavy as can be, and not shy at all. They're doing very well, and if he offers any animals that I'm interested in, I'd do business with him in a minute.

Two thumbs up for Arthur Frayler.
