    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....

Just a Normal????

Hatched this guy out and was wondering if he is just a normal. He Has a white patternless stomach and seems like a reduced pattern with just dots on his back. Is he just a normal or maybe something else in him. He was bred from a harlequin a pastel.

What a black back that one has - jet black with striking contrast to his sides! To me it looks like a normal, but a very nice one that I would keep and breed back to mom, see if you get more of him or other strange ones. It has that melty look that I've seen mainly on captive hatched balls. I don't recall hearing that it has been proven genetic, but you can try for it.
Since I haven't gotten a very good feel for harlequin my statement may be off base. I wanted to say something because it's such a great looking snake!

I had a baby normal hatch out that is very dark as well, I will be keeping her to breed back to dad.

Nice snake.
