    =====================

    I am still waiting on my developer to finish up on the Classifieds Control Panel so I can use it to encourage members into becoming paying members. Google Adsense has become a real burden on the viewing of this site, but honestly it is the ONLY source of income now that keeps it afloat. I tried offering disabling the ads being viewed by paying members, but apparently that is not enough incentive. Quite frankly, Google Adsense has dropped down to where it barely brings in enough daily to match even a single paid member per day. But it still gets the bills paid. But at what cost?

    So even without the classifieds control panel being complete, I believe I am going to have to disable those Google ads completely and likely disable some options here that have been free since going to the new platform. Like classified ad bumping, member name changes, and anything else I can use to encourage this site to be supported by the members instead of the Google Adsense ads.

    But there is risk involved. I will not pay out of pocket for very long during this last ditch experimental effort. If I find that the membership does not want to support this site with memberships, then I cannot support your being able to post your classified ads here for free. No, I am not intending to start charging for your posting ads here. I will just shut the site down and that will be it. I will be done with FaunaClassifieds. I certainly don't need this, and can live the rest of my life just fine without it. If I see that no one else really wants it to survive neither, then so be it. It goes away and you all can just go elsewhere to advertise your animals and merchandise.

    Not sure when this will take place, and I don't intend to give any further warning concerning the disabling of the Google Adsense. Just as there probably won't be any warning if I decide to close down this site. You will just come here and there will be some sort of message that the site is gone, and you have a nice day.

    I have been trying to make a go of this site for a very long time. And quite frankly, I am just tired of trying. I had hoped that enough people would be willing to help me help you all have a free outlet to offer your stuff for sale. But every year I see less and less people coming to this site, much less supporting it financially. That is fine. I tried. I retired the SerpenCo business about 14 years ago, so retiring out of this business completely is not that big if a step for me, nor will it be especially painful to do. When I was in Thailand, I did not check in here for three weeks. I didn't miss it even a little bit. So if you all want it to remain, it will be in your hands. I really don't care either way.

    =====================
    Some people have indicated that finding the method to contribute is rather difficult. And I have to admit, that it is not all that obvious. So to help, here is a thread to help as a quide. How to become a contributing member of FaunaClassifieds.

    And for the record, I will be shutting down the Google Adsense ads on January 1, 2025.

Y'all are making me drool again. Gorgeous!!!! That Super Nova(?) is new to me, what a beautifully different carpet!!
 
Kevin, I'm not much of a Jungle fan but I'm a fan of those guys !!! really really nice animals.

Thanks Michael, the name Super Nova came from another forum where someone took Nova Guinea (Old name still used for new Guinea) and tagged my super reduced pattern jag clutch with it. Seeing as I had referred to them as the B.S.H.L. clutch that name seems much nicer lol. Here's a couple others from that clutch, mom was a Nova Guinea or as I have called them PNG's like the first animal in my post above, dad was a coastal jag.

These two seem to be coloring up with a lavender ground color, some have a yellow gound color others white and then these two. The whole clutch was really weird ..

about 8 feet of Bredli, right before she shed, was hoping I'd feed her as she'll eat anytime ..

Since I am new to Carpets, Im not sure how these two will turn out.. I was into ball pythons, and They just got darker and darker. But I'v been told these guys lighten up a bit? I'm curious to see how it all works out!

Zori - 7ft+ Female Coastal Carpet

Well... heres some updated shots of Zori... shes now 7ft+ and filling out beautifully... puppy dog tame to the point where I pet her head all the time and shes not skittish at all... her feeding response is just INSANE... so I snapped some shots of her feeding today... and she shed bout 4-5 days ago... I think she may be a mixed breed... cause her pattern over the last 4 months has REALLY changed... as has her color... and btw... if you're curious... that IS a 55gal aquarium on its side long ways for her enclosure... she LOVES her tree branches and perches daily sometimes for days at a time... Enjoy the pics...

Michelle, that first girl is really nice looking. You said she's a cross what do you know about her breeding? The stripy one does look feisty good looking kid.

Aeryk, that is a good sized girl, looks all Coastal to me and a nice classic looking one at that. here's a head shot of one of my big girls she's around 8 feet or so, looks rather like yours a classic Coastal.

Well here is my project. I had been keeping them pretty quiet to the public but since I saw this post I figured I would show them off. Not that it is anywhere near as nice as what I see above but there is hope of something very nice here. I have produced eggs with her the last 3 years with 1.2 hopeful hets being held back. She and her brother were purchased immediately after hatching in hopes of producing the 1st pied carpets. Only the female had these white marks. They were sent out on breeder loan by the previous owner which I am now a partner with and we did not get her brother back so we had to start over. If we don’t sell them it’s going to be 2 more years and we will breed the son back to the mother and see if it happens. Sorry for the bad pics but i just can't take good pics.

Not sure if that's genetic. To me, it just looks like there's something wrong with that snake. If you want, you can send them my way for "observation", and I'll let you know how it turns out...LOL!

Seriously, good luck!
 
That was actually directed towards Jim and his possible pied carpet.

Your guy is quite pretty as well...maybe I could "borrow" him as well, LOL
