    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....

1.1 2024 Hatch Peruvian Calico Snakes, Oxyrhopus fitzingeri. These are very interesting snakes, rare in U.S. collections. These snakes average three feet in length as adults and are extremely easy to handle. Though they are rear-fanged, I have never seen one offer to bite except as a feeding response. The hatchlings start off with a tan to beige ground color with a mottled pattern of black splattered mostly on the dorsum indeterminately. Some animals have more dark than light scales. As they grow, many individuals undergo an ontogenetic color change in which the tan becomes any color from buckskin to salmon to pumpkin orange. On some individuals the black lightens to a Gun Metal Blue. They have a white belly, which is highly iridescent. In the wild these snakes feed on a variety of prey including snakes, lizards, and rodents. Our adults eat thawed small mice and fuzzy rats. These are feeding on thawed, pink mice. (Adults pictured are not for sale.) $2,250/pair shipped.

For more information, please contact Stan, (972) 515-5789, text, call, or message.

They are very interesting and great animals to work with. We have been working with them for a number of years and it took a while to get them to the point we were able to list any. We have now had a few to sell off each year for the past few years. Thank you for the note and let me know if you have any questions.
