    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....

Michael,

You probably have not received a reply yet because you did not supply enough info. First, how long has she been off feed? Has she been exposed to a male anytime in the past, say 2 years? Any sign of a lump forming in her middle area? Any change in behaviour such as becoming more lethargic? Has she ever been examined for internal parasites? Any exposure direct or indirect to another sick reptile? If you answer these questions, I am sure you will get plenty of help from forum members.
