    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....

Just completed a trade with Josh the other day for a leopard tortoise. I cant saw anything bad about Josh or how the trade went. Ive never owned a tortoise before and Josh happily supplied me with all information I was asking about and everything I had questions on. His packing was perfect.
Right out of being unpacked the little guy was cruising around being very active. I gave him a small salad for the night and he almost ran to the plate and started chowing down.

I must say if you are in the market to pick up a leopard tortoise then Josh is someone you should consider. His animals are healthy and he is happy to answer any of your questions. I know I would buy/trade with him again and I know the boa I sent him on trade went to a awesome home

I vouch for Josh as well.

He and I have not yet completed any transactions between each other, but we have enabled several deals to match up buyers with specific needs in mind with sellers who are offering high quality options to satisfy those criteria.

Also, he has a caring streak a mile wide when it comes to animals which he has made efforts to rescue and rehabilitate and I consider that noteworthy.
 
I just received an adult female spider het pied ball python today from Josh and she was even nicer than I had anticipated. This female may help me out a lot this season if I am suitably fortunate.
