    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....

I have been thinking hard about shipping lately. I am just starting on my ball python projects but am very concerned. From the posts I have read many many people ship their snakes in boxes labled "fragel" or such and throu companies that do not take snakes. I read the tread on getting approved and it dosent sound hard. However how long can you keep your certification if you dont used it? I wont ship for at least a year or so. I dont want my snakes to end up in a bad way but however I dont want to spend a lot of money and time to get approved then have to turn around and do it again. Is it really worth it to only mail one or two snakes a year? Like I said I have a year or so to think it over ;) (even I can get my courage up in a year LOL). I have one small boy that I am thinking about selling but dont want to worry about the shipping so he is staying put untill my other project gets off the ground. If this is a repeat post sorry.
