    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....

Somehow ended up with three male western massasaugas (Sistrurus catenatus tergeminus) for an intended breeding project. Looking to trade one for a female. All three are healthy and tested negative for SFD, crypto, and nidoviruses. All are microchipped.

I'm also willing to sell, but I am selective about who I sell venomous snakes. Shipping via Delta or local pickup. If you're interested, please let me know and be prepared to provide the following information:

-A copy of your ID proving your residence and age. I will not sell venomous to anyone who cannot legally possess them or anyone under 25.
-A photo of the actual enclosure where the animal will be kept. Enclosures must be locking, escape-proof, and in an escape-proof room.
-A 500-word minimum paragraph that includes your venomous experience, the reason you want this animal, care procedures, first aid/bite protocols, and what you will do with this animal if you can no longer care for it.

I've had many past experiences of people trying to illegally sell me venomous snakes or buy venomous snakes from me. Be warned, I am a conservation biologist - not a hobbyist - and I will absolutely report you to law enforcement if you are attempting to sell or buy illegally. Know your laws before inquiring because I will definitely check. Thanks!
