    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....

Hello,

My name is Rene I also go by the nickname Texoticas or Fauna User ID Texoticas Reptiles. I just have a short story to tell about my great interaction with Michael Powell over at Shnglow Serpents. At exactly 1 year ago I had put down a deposit on a pair of SD Golden Child Retics, but due to a series of unfortunate events happening at the time I was unable to complete payment to payoff my Retics with Mr.Powell. I reached out to him and he understood 100% and let me know I had a credit that was good towards any reptile he had posted either on Fauna or KS. Well long story short, one year had gone by and win my busy schedule at work, having a little girl and getting married a few months ago. I had completely forgot about my credit. I reached out to Mr.Powell and apologized for the long wait but wanted to see if I could still use my credit that was never used and explained my situation. Now, after one year I think anyone would have immediately voided my deposit but Mr.Powell was very understanding and didn't hesitate to even honor my 150.00 Credit! Even after 1 year! The only problem I had now was not being able to pick up a Retic due to the Retic Ban in Texas but I did end up picking up a very nice Lesser Banana Ball Python that I am very happy with! He came in yesterday, professionally boxed with heat packs and healthy as can be!

I just wanted to let everyone on here know Michael Powell at Sunglow Sepents is a great guy to work with and do business with, not to mention the quality animals he produces and his level of professionalism! Don't be afraid to ask for a payment arrangement also, he goes above and beyond to make it happen and get you the reptile you've had your eyes set on!

Thanks,
Rene Moreno
