    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 have some questions regarding importing herps into the US. I am looking into importing some stuff and want to know if I am missing anything important here. So far, I have found I will need/need to pay:
An import license
CITES permit for Appendix II & III species
User fees
Need to use a designated port

Is there anything else I need? How long in advance would I need to notify USfWS of an impending shipment so I can go through customs as fast as possible?

You need a number of things. F&W needs 48 hours.You need a customs broker.You do NOT need a cites permit for an import in the U.S.,only needed when you export out of the U.S.the exporting party is responsible for that. I am very experienced in this matter please do not pm me i prefer emails.I will help you with everything you need at no charge.please email me at [email protected]
