• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

theres a few things you can do to get it to eat. try taking a mouse and dipping it in tune juice or get a fresh kill and cut it open and swing in front of his face let him smell the blood, this always works for me get something alot smaller and swing in front of him. also make sure its not to cold other wise he wont eat becuase he wont beable to digest but with the GTP cant have it to hot either. getting something alot smaller to eat has worked on a number of snakes for me from ball pythons to gopher snakes to burmese pythons the burmese i had to through pinkies in there with him and he eat right away and then starting eating large mice he was a baby burm so large mice was the biggest i could go but he has eatin everyday sence then. it works with ball pythons wich is unusall becuase balls are notorius for not eating i think the record is 18 months or something close. but anywasy i hope i can be to some sort of assitance to you. hope this works. if you get it to work i would love to know about it. nothing like a healthy snake. email me at [email protected]. update me if you wouldnt mind, good luck
