    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 live on a 10 acre farm in rural Tennessee with my wife and son. We have the usual farm animals - horses, goats, "mini" pigs, chickens, geese, dogs and cats, and probably a few things I'm forgetting.

In addition to all that, I also have a dart frog collection, a sulcata tortoise, and a motley corn snake. I'm hoping to add a couple more corn snakes, and possibly a rat snake or two.

Glad to be here! :)
 
Hi Rob and welcome to Fauna. You have quite the "zoo". I love pigs, mini or not. Of course, I love reptiles and amphibians too. Some of my favorite species of frogs, are from the genus Dendrobates. What species do you keep? We would all love to see pictures of your critters.
 
Thanks for the welcome!

As far as the dart frogs, I have
Phyllobates bicolor and vittatus, bumble bee (leucomelas), and variabilis highland.

I'm at work, so don't have many animal pics here, but I was able to find a few. Not all are considered "exotic" :)

Two of our four dogs:

And my Sulcata "Henry" when he was much younger:

Thanks, Robert. The one in the front is "Shiloh". He is half German Shepherd and half Belgian Malinois. The other is "Molly". She's full-blooded German Shepherd. Both are just incredible dogs.

Here's another pic of Shiloh :)

I am NOT a dog person, but, your dogs look amazing. I love a GSD and Mal. A combination of both breeds sounds amazing. How big is Henry now? Thanks for sharing pictures of your critters. Whenever you have time, I would love to see the pigs and the Dendrobates.
