    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....

Welcome. Yes he is and I'm sure he appreciates the comment. Just a FYI, Chuck passed away. I guess it would be, Wow, in a couple of months 4 years.

Yeah, Chuck would appreciate the comment. He was hilarious, brutally honest and completely committed to outing/exposing thieves, scammers and abusers.

He's still sorely missed even now. Just the mention of his name brings a smile.

And yeah, all Fauna women are hot ... and very cool :)
 
Fairly new to fauna but why not! Here's 2 from a reptile convention a few months back

My Green Tree Python thinks I look like a good place to hang out on.

And here are a couple of pics of me getting nose to nose with Na'vi, a large timber wolf, at the Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center, which is a few miles west of Colorado Springs. I had a blast.

Heck why not? A recent one of me.

No reptiles at the moment. I moved everything out in preparation for the extended stay in Mass for Shawn's death. Looking to get back in, but nowhere near the scale I had before. Wanting a different species too. I'm thinking maybe A. melanocephalus. I hear they have a sense of humor and can be downright sarcastic at times. Perfect.

I was in Centerville and Hyannis. That's where he grew up, and where his family is. I forgot how crazy big city Boston traffic is. My first thought was, 'I'm gonna die'. :rofl:

I'm happy to be back to Montana, where folks are sane, and there's a whole lot less people.
 
I think it's rather funny also that someone would have a stereotype of what a reptile keeper should look like. I've seen all kinds of people at reptile shows. I don't think there's any one look that a reptile keeper has. I will say that usually, in my experience, reptile breeders are men or tom boyish/ tough looking women. I think people are surprised to know that I breed snakes. Breeders at reptile shows often ignore me because they don't think I'm there to buy. It's rather annoying. I even had one guy ask me if I could afford a snake when I asked to see it. :angry: Needless to say I was very offended and went to buy the same morph at a different booth. I'm a girly girl so I guess I see why people might think I'm not there to buy. Most of the girly girls I see at shows are scared of every snake. I started buying snakes when I was 16 (I'm 21 now). That might also be a reason. People really need to broaden their minds though lol. There are several breeders that would've gotten my money if they treated me like they treat a "stereotypical" looking breeder.
