    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

Real problems on shows now or soon if

it goes this way. This thread was removed from you know where web-site and for what reason i don't know, but anyway some of you know or don't know that the herpetologist and wildlife folks has been semi-busy working on re-classifying family and genus of reptiles. If done as to grouping species and sub-species to the original native species of certain states, it will be un-lawful to sell any morph as well. It has happened to Missouri already and California > ? This has been done to the rat snake family. The pit group is being consider as all tri-colors not to mention the kingsnake family. Here is the deal of Missouri already : you cannot legally sale to a non-class 11 permit holder a native species of bull snake. In turn you cannot legally sell a morph say an albino because it is still a pituophis sayi. If the regrouping or change of named family goes to just recognize scientific name under pituophis and all is grouped as such > genus, species, subspecies, the bull snake, gopher snake and pine snake could possibly be against the Missouri law to sell. At least the way I understand it ! Because they are all pituophis by classification and by genus a native species. So if I am right, could this even effect hybrids down the road and how about the Missouri emoryi being the base species for many hybrids on the market................ ?
