• 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....

Is he a Shink?

I live in Lake Havasu, Arizona. I found him almost drowning in the pool. So I saved him and gave him a home.

Definitely not a skink. Looks like a Western Whiptail to me. You might consider releasing it back to the wild where it belongs :)
 
I agree with Laura. It should be returned to the wild. My reasoning is mainly because you didn't even know what it was. Therefore may not provide correct housing, etc.
 
Thanks again for your concern :) But, just because you don't know the answer to a question doesn't mean you can't learn. I'm no dum ass. Maybe you should give your lizards up?
I have two pet stores and one place that sells lizards period they have helped me greatly. I've spent over $130 already and have accumulated a wealth of knowledge since I first posted this post. He has great living conditions and is doing very well.
