• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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....

Hey its me again,I redone everything.I got rid of the old and brought in the new.I went to the local lowe's and bought 4 sheets of millemean and redone it all and now all my balls are in fine shape.The RI is gone,thank god' I battled it for a solid year and finally won.Though I lost 3 beautiful animals that I have pics of I never will forget them.After you take care of an animal for so long they become part of you and when they go unexspectidly it makes you or who ever become stronger and causes you to fight harder to keep the others alive.I found away to do so and thanks to the good lord for standing by me they are all back to normal.Heres how I done it.I started by taking 1 hole sheet and put shelves all the way down,cut a foot of to allow for space in my living room.I got rid of all the heat cables and reostats and went to incondesent lighting therefor stabilizing all the different cages I made out of one.Then I put the lighting pointing down from the top to heat the bottom of the cage,I bet your wondering how I did it.think about this' take the piece of wood with shelves all the way down and go from left to right with your lighting.Say you have 49in by 97in you zigzag the system.What I done was started at the bottom and made a 47inW by 12in tall by 18.5 deep,the next one was 38inL by 12in tall a little to the right and the next was the same but to the left and walked them up to the top.Its so easy to clean its neet and then for the good patr I to the other cage and turned my 12 year old and my 4 year old loose on it with a 3 pound sledge and said destroy it.Needless to say its gone for good.I think allot of the problem was the 10 year old cage.It started with water dragons and went to basilisk then brown basilisk and then webbers dragons and so on.I bred allot of lizards in it for a long time.I mean by the hundreds and then one of the balls we had looked funny one day and that's when it started and here I am never gonna quit.dont you just love all the colors,I know I do.I could care less if I sold the first one.Oh yea'I forgot to say this I had a male pastel het pied get loose on me and still have'nt seen him,its been 5 weeks now and no sign.But now since the redo my temps are were the should be 90 to 91 on the warm and 82 to 83 on the cool hopefully now I might have a good season because I missed this one.so thanks to all of you that helped me on this page and thanks to fauna for being here for that reason.I'll post some pics as soon as I can of the system and some balls.
