    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....

I need to invest in...

... a decent snake hook and a bigger pair of feeding tongs. I got a 4ish foot cbb female garden phase atb a couple weeks ago and I hate feeding her with my puny little 10" tongs. The guy who I got her from said she was tame as any ball python and indeed she was... Until I got her home and let her settle in for a few days. Now the amazon attitude comes out. She has nailed me a few times as well a guy a work with. Doesn't really hurt yet, but yikes! I can't change her water without her snapping at me. Gotta love that attitude! Makes for a little extra fun.

She was a little skinny when I first got her as you can tell, but she has never refused a meal in my care and has already put on a little weight. Look at those eyes! Can't tell in the pic but they are an absolutely striking yellow/green.

Terrarium I built for her. It is 21"w x 21"d x 35"h inside and approximately 5ft tall with stand. Nothing fancy, just 1x2 framing, plexiglas on all sides and a screen top for ventilation. Haven't had any problems with keeping the humidity up and the thermal gradient is darn near perfect.

Lol. Gotta love em! She does look a bit thin tho. Glad you're feedin her up :)
 
She is slowly gaining weight, but she is still has that downright nasty atb attitude. She is a little more handleable outside of her cage, but I will never trust her.
