• 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.....

    =====================


    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'm Maggie. I'm new to everything herp-related so I hope I don't end up making a fool of myself here. I never really had a chance as a kid to get into snakes, but now that I'm on my own, I'm super excited to get my first one. I've been reading up a lot on western hognoses and I'm set on getting one in the near future. Can't wait till all the little hatchlings start popping up.

Anyway, fingers crossed. Hope to be welcoming a little hoggy to my life and talking to people on here more!
 
Welcome to Fauna Maggie! :D
I love hoggies myself, they're one of my favs. You just can't beat that "so ugly, it's cute" snout of theirs. :p

I hope that you find a wonderful one and that it does very well for you! :thumbsup:
