    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....

I acquired this snake from someone with the intention of donating to one of our local environmental centers as a display animal. I was initially told it was a Texas ratsnake, but after getting it, it is my opinion (and others) that it is probably an intergrade with a grey ratsnake and/or something else.

According to the previous owner, it was purchased by their son 7 yrs ago from a pet shop in Houston, TX. I do not know whether it is wildcaught or captive bred.

It is a male, over 5 ft long and eats f/t mice and rats. He is a little jumpy and highstrung, as most ratsnake are, but is not aggressive and has yet to actually strike at me.

The nature center I was planning to give him to doesn't want him because A.) he's an intergrade, and B.) they already have enough ratsnakes already.

So I need the space and I just want him to go to a good home. I'm not asking for any adoption fee, just that you pay shipping costs.

Contact me via email, PM, or call/text 251-604-5225 if interested. I may be attending the Repticon Pensacola in August as well as the NRBE in Daytona.
