    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....

My name is Jonathan and I've been lurking around here for months now. I originally registered to post on the BOI about a positive experience I had, but have been browsing through the forums pretty much every day since.

Our current collection of herps consist of:

.4 Normal Balls
1.1 Spider Balls
1.0 Mojave Ball
2.0 Pastel Balls
1.1 Brazilian Rainbow Boas
1.0 Western Hognose
1.1 Yellow Nigerian Uromastyx
.1 Crested Gecko

I'll be posting some pics later today, I know how you all love pictures :yesnod: LoL. I look forward to talking to you all.
 
Welcome to Fauna Jon! Very nice collection you have started :)...and you are right, we do LOVE pictures around here ;)
 
I see that you're from Campbellsville, KY? I'm originally from Louisville and my dad was born and raised in Campbellsville. Spent tons of time down there when I was younger. We used to take camping trips to Green River. Small world.

I'll be posting some pics shortly.

Wow! No joke:eek:. That is odd huh? Green River is nice.....and green:ack2::rofl:!! We do love taking our girls out there for a day on the water though!!

My husband and I were originally from Ohio/Michigan and have only lived here in Campbellsville for a few years.

The other odd thing here.....my brother just moved to SC about a year ago.
Very true when you say "small world" :yesnod:

I was happy to see you say something about the BOI. Please MAKE SURE you use that before you make a purchase. While the good guy threads are great to have and informative in their own ways.....the bad guy threads are the one's we are very thankful for!:thumbsup:

True story. I've bought animals from 4 different people now and each time I've looked them up on the BOI before buying. It is a very useful tool.

You ever get your feeder situation worked out? If not I would suggest going to an expo and just buying in bulk. We're lucky enough to have Repticon come here to Columbia 3 times a year with a few other shows down at Myrtle Beach and Charleston. I've always just bought 4-6 months worth of feeders at the shows to get me through.
