    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....

where's your $ come from?

Where's the largest % of your reptile related sales done locally or out of state?

please no retail stores answer just hobbyist breeders collectors fly by nighters whatever. I personally only sell about 20% locally everything else is done over the Internet and air transport.
 
Well it used to be Fauna,Kingsnake,Craigslist,local shows
Now its as follows>
Fauna,Craigslist,local shows oh and did I mention>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Fauna>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
 
I havent had much luck selling animals here on fauna either. Most of my sales are via shows, website, and a long list of great customers that have been loyal for many years.
 
I'm pretty new to the business. I've spent the last 5 years building up my collection for future breeding purposes and have only sold a few animals due to my plans going in different directions as time went on. I hope to begin producing offspring in the next two years and hope I can build up a good reputation.
 
I sell the highest percentage of normals locally, to individuals and pet stores.

I sell most morphs through Kingsnake and Fauna. Occasionally other sites, but primarily those two.
 
Fauna and KS. Never advertised locally but have found local buyers thru those 2 sites.
