    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....

*Sigh*... I just got done pulling a thermo/hydrometer thats sticks to the tank with a sticker and velcro of my poor little Cinnamon's belly! Except she tore the whole thing down:ack2:, and luckily for some reason i had the urge to hold her. And noticed it right away. I kept thinking it was gonna rip her scales off but luckily nothing came off except the meter. She does have a tiny red dot on her where it first "grabbed" her but hopefully that'll go away. I think i broke the meter running it under water trying to unsticky it, but o well she was the important thing :yesnod:. Anyone else had something like this happen? Jeez snakes are mischievous even in their own home.
 
Maybe that was a hint!

But yeah, my "terrestrial" pythons love climb around and tear crap down. Remodeling or something.
 
I had a hatchling corn stick to a piece of aluminum tape once. Poor thing. I got it off and it was fine but it let me know it wasn't happy. Bit me the whole time. It's funny how you had this meter stuck to your snake, I had the snake stuck to the tape. Couldn't even move. :(
 
Poor corn, well Cinny's bad luck didnt stop there, her heta lamp burnt out and then the light fixture burnt out the replacement bulb! Had to put her with another ball till i can get a new light tonight.
 
I had a cinny girl go out of her way to get stuck to some tape, perhaps they have an affinity for sticky things. I dont know how she did it, she somehow ripped the tape off the probe and got it stuck to her.
