    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 just completed a deal with Tom Barnhart of Hagerstown, MD. I purchased a normal female Ball Python from Tom. She's a beautiful animal (yes Virginia, normals can be beautiful), arrived on schedule, nicely package, accurately sexed and the picture of health. She ate, her first night here. From our first email to our last phone conversation, Tom was very professional. I look forward to our next transaction. Take care of those het hypos. I'll be back.
 
I thought I'd add some more about Tom to this thread. I bought a yearling female pastel from Tom late last year (2006). She has turned out to be a great beautiful little girl. She was sold to me only eating live rats and was very easily switched to dead.

When I received her she had an injury to her nose presumably from live prey which Tom neglected to inform me about. After three shedding cycles the injury in almost indistinguishable.

I am overall pleased with sale despite the surprise injury and cannot wait to see how she fills out by the end of this year. She is a high quality female pastel.

Brad,

I'm happy to hear she is doing well and switched over to fozen/thawed for you. She was a very pretty pastel. Just got my first clutch of the year on the ground yesterday and am counting down the days!

Take care,
Tom
