    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....

Whats up everyone? My name is Rob, I live in Boston for 9 months out of the year for school. I'm 23 and have been keeping herps/exotic animals for most of my life. I've had checkered garters, red eared sliders, box turtles, spiney soft shells, green anoles, beardies, corn snakes, and hedge hogs (haha). Since moving out East I've found life without my animals is dull, so I've been slowly getting my collection back up.

I currently own/house an '08 female normal bp, an '08 male florida 'brooksi' kingsnake, a '09 male anery corn, and two rat pups (not pups anymore) that I couldn't bring myself to killing. Call me soft, but these rats are the most personable little shits I've ever owned.:shrug01:

I study music production, and am absolutely obsessed with Volkswagens.
 
Welcome Rob. I agree, life here on the east coast (especially northeast) can be especially boring (and cold), so we need herps by the truck load to cheer us up. It's going to be cold one today, I think it's safe to say summer is officially over, get ready for some snow up in Boston :(
 
You know, I'm fine with the prospect of snow. I'm from Michigan originally, so I'm quite used to rough winters.
 
Hi Rob!

Noobie here & noobie to snake ownership, also in the Boston area. Nice to here from someone local.
