    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....

Okay guys. Tell me what I am doing wrong.! All my baby beardies are getting multiple tail bites. They are 5 to a tub, and are fed 3 times a day. I dump crickets until they stop eating and I just leave the 10 or so that they dont eat so they can have something to munch on between meals. Usually they are still there when I go to feed again. Please tell me what I am doing wrong so they can ONE quite hurting each other and TWO make some profit for me. Mostly I just feed bad for the little guys.
 
You just never know when you'll get a bunch like that....I've had it happen several times over the years, and last year was one of my worst. Your'e definitely feeding enough, it's just one of those things....has nothing to do with real aggression, either in most cases. They just see what looks like something different to have a taste of, and even one in each bin can devastate the little group.
 
Thanks for commenting Angie. Coming from you, I feel better that I am not doing something wrong.. Just wish there was some secret trick to stopping them from reducing each others tails to stubs.
 
They are Citrus Pastel x Lemon Burst hypo's. 3 weeks old. They were doing fine. I went to an show this weekend and noticed a few bites when I came back Sunday night, but Monday night I noticed at least one or two in each tub had pretty good stubs.
