    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....

Hello everyone. I have a Leopard Tortoise I bought at Daytona in August of 2008 as a hatchling. I have gotten way too busy with my ball pythons and need the space, etc, etc, So I have decided to sell my leopard tortoise. So two questions... First, can you tell if it is a boy or girl? Second, what kind of value would he/she have? I know that would be dependent on its sex.
Thanks for you help!
Troy

I know this is an old post but figured would share what I have been told, as far as I know from prior purchases, they are incubated at certain temps for either male or female for the entire clutch.
