    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....

Please Help with FedEx!!!

I'm going to be shipping a snake soon using shipyourreptiles.com and I called my nearest FedEx hub to get the times that the truck leaves. They told me that they do not ship animals! What do I do? Please Please Help!
 
Use FedEx.com to find the hours of the nearest hub (Find Locations).
Set up your shipments per SYR policy, and drop your package off like there isn't a problem (there is really no need to interact with the staff with a prepaid label on the box). In all likelihood, the people at the counter won't bat an eye. If they do make an issue of it, contact SYR and let them field the problem.
 
If this is going to be a continuous thing for you, I would go to all the available hubs and talk to all of them and feel them out. I found a really great place that knows and accepts the fact that I ship snakes. They know to personally call me if there is a problem with the pick up because there is a live animal inside. They will stay late if needed for me to come back and pick up the box. There are good, open minded people out there, lol, jus have to find them.
 
Thanks guys. I live out in the middle of nowhere so I don't have other options unless I drive a few hours away. But after calling all over the place we finally got the info. I just wanted to call them to make sure there wouldn't be a problem. Geeze I didn't think they would be so nasty about it.
