    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....

I have had my tegu for about a week (Arg. B and W). It is appr. 4 weeks old. To begin with we were able to handle it and it was very tame. For the last 3 days, it has been hiding a lot(I went back to work..teacher...so I am not sure if it hides all day) and when we try to get it out to feed it in the afternoon, it gets upset and tries to get away from us. It has been shedding so I have been misting it with water. Is this the reason that it is so testy? Will it get over this and go back to the way it was after it is finished shedding? It still has an appetite.

That could be the reason. It will calm back down.
