    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....

Hey everyone. I am new to this forum, and new to Reptiles, etc. Im 15 years old, and I am just a crazy kid who loves animals and wants one of his own.

Im hoping to get a Leopard Gecko from Marcia at a convention in Sacramento on September 9th & 10th.

Until then, I hope to purcahse all the items I need, and get ready for the little booger. :)

I have a list of all the items I am going to purchase right here.

If you have any suggestions on what I should purchase or trash, just let me know.

Thanks,
Welsh
 
Welcome to Fauna, Brendan! :)

It's great to see a new young man getting into herps, and making sure they are doing it the right way!! There's a wealth of information here on Fauna, and some awesome Leo people as well.
 
Welcome Brendan!! We look forward to seeing a pic of your new gecko when you get it!!
 
I'll make sure to take a few pictures, along with one of my Tank. :)

Thanks for the warm welcome.
