    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....

Hi, I am hoping that someone somewhere will have any ideas. I am living in Northern Illinois going to school and we are living in apts. We cannot find one that will let us keep our large collection of reptiles and getting rid of them is NOT an option for us. For now we have a temporary apt that is ok with caged pets and we hide the reptiles well. If anyone knows of any places 1 or 2 bedrooms in Northern Illinois that are ok with reptiles. We are not punk kids that show off big snakes to be cool, we just are reptile lovers who quietly keep and breed some of our faves and I am going to school for wildlife biology.
So if you live in a reptile friendly place or if you own a house or building that you are renting out let me know please.
Bye, Sarah

sarah,
i used to rent a townhouse in Algonquin its in the northwest burbs. i do not know where in the northern illinois you live. i also do not know if the guy has rented it out yet. we moved out about 4 months ago. i had about 12 tanks with a variety of reptiles. the landlord had no problems with it. the amount might be alot different than what your used to. im sure it will be over 1000 a month but it has two bedrooms with two bathrooms living dining, single garage, and a pretty big kitchen. let me know if thats something you woudl be interested in it. i will dig out his name.
good luck
Andy
