    **************************************************
    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....

If you could?

Hmmmmm, for me owning is not so much the joy as working with the animals. whether that's at home or work, it's the regular interaction and learning that really turns me on. With that in mind;

I love working with Reticulated Pythons. They're a royal handful smart, inquisitive and wholly unforgiving of keeper error. Which of course means the snake I would really love to work with would be the King Cobra. Everything you can say about the retic is true for them just in a different way.

For home I would love to have a group of Shinisaurs, the Chinese Crocodile Lizards, and the South American Caiman Lizards. They're fascinating creatures attractive, lively, and a real challenge to keep properly. All traits that guarantee I'd want them.
