    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....

Hey guys!

Glad to finally take the time to immerse myself into the herp world and to come on here and introduce myself. Although my main focus is ball pythons at this point, I'm a lover of all herps and am looking to branch out my collection very soon here. I'm also starting up a small breeding operation so you might see me in the classifieds in a year or two. :D

So yeah, how’s everyone's day going?
 
Sweet! Glad to know I have some company in my endeavors! I'm still working out the kinks of what I want but so far, I want to produce a Super Black Pastel and a LUCY (also, Pewters seem pretty awesome) so I’m trying to get my hands on some Black Pastels and some Mojaves and maybe a Cinnamon or two. What kind of breeding projects are you thinking about?
 
Wowsers what a welcome committee!! Thanks for the warm welcomes everyone! :D

On a side note to you crazy SoCal people: are there any gatherings happening anytime soon?

Thanks for the info about the shows! I'll definitely be going to the San D show but I'll cross my fingers for the Vegas show (planning on going to New Orleans for Halloween and need to save up some money).

San Jose is a bit far for me. The only way I could justify going up there is if I was spending a week in San Fran or something (which maybe isn't too crazy of an idea). Thanks for all the useful info guys! I hope to see some of you at these shows. :)
 
hi welcome to cali im am also working with ball pythons but i love all repitles and amphibians as for the shows if you cant make it to san diego then from august to january there are many shows around the LA area
