• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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....

I met John at a KC show last spring and was surprised by his honesty. He actually told me not to buy an animal if I didn't have access to live pinky mice. Hows that for honesty? Recently I purchased a very nice pair of Solmon Island boas from him. They ate FT pinkies just as he had told me they would. He was also very willing to give advice and share his knowledge of boas. I will definitely do business with him again.
 
He is the best of the best . . .

. . . too bad he doesn't have a website so he get's some recognition A lot of people don't realize this, but he was on the cutting edge of the captive breeding of many species of herps.

He is truly a herper's herper. He will never do you wrong.

I'm glad you got to meet him!!
