    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

the good guys note

Good Guy

Rich Zuchowsli, aka webslave, aka Serpenco, etc.....although I've not puchased Rich's corns, he keeps this board alive and that has saved me countless money. So he definately belongs on the good guy list.
Thanks, Rich
 
I have purchased corns from Rich, and I can say he is definately a good guy. He stands behind his animals, even if it's most likely the buyer who screwed up!

Thanks again Rich!
 
How about Jerry Dorgan?
I picked up an animal from him at NARBC.
Nice animal and nice easy deal.
