    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 guys, my name is Matthew Skrabak. Just joined the forum a couple days ago. Have known about it for years though and this was always my go-to place for when I wanted to research a particular seller I was planning on buying from. Decided it was finally time I joined here.

I'm on dendroboards as well under the same username and I'm also on youtube under the same username as well. I've had an interest in reptiles, amphibians, and insects since I was very young. I currently own 1 male Bearded Dragon, 1.1 Leopard Geckos, 1 male Crested Gecko, 2.2 Dendrobates tinctorius "Patricia", 1.1 Ranitomeya imitator "Nominal", 1 male Teratoscincus roborowksi, and I also have a female Syrian Short Tailed Hamster.

I've been keeping reptiles for about a decade now, with my first reptile being a Leopard Gecko I got when I was 10. I've made many mistakes along the way but I've learned a lot as well. I'm a strong believer of only keeping CB animals, and refuse to buy WC animals. Even if its the only way to obtain an animal I really want I'd rather wait for breeders to produce CB animals than purchase an animal that's be stolen from the wild. I do my best to provide my animals with the best quality homes and am a strong believer in bioactive setups for ALL animals within reason. I hope to learn more from this forum on care for many new species of reptiles and amphibians as well as learn who I should avoid in the community.

Thanks for having me!
