    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 all!

Yesterday, I had an idea. I was considering compiling a basic care sheet compendium of most captive kept reptiles, everything from your common bearded dragon to Rhacodactylus leachianus. This could take possibly years and perhaps, depending on how it went it could perhaps be published as a "at a glance" book. Note, I don't mean just care sheet, the layout I had in mind would be a at a glance for the more than novice keeper - I would like to spend the beginning speaking about common husbandry ideas and such like (how to maintain humidity, substrates, night cycles, rain water systems and their effects.. methods and such), then move onto the bulk which would consist of common name and scientific names and, once again, not a detailed sheet with alot of text, rather, the information that matters (ex)

((This would be a layout for part of one on Python regius)

Temp: 90/75-80
Humidity:Moderate(50%)
Terrarium: 30"x12"x16" neonate: 20"10"12"
etc.

The goal is to be an at a glance guide, with solid info.

Would there be a market in your opinions? Would you purchase a book like this, provided the information was solid?
 
I think this could be useful for those who are browsing for what pet reptile would best suit them. However, I think it would be extraordinarily important to incorporate that lacking knowledge of a reptile will lead to illness, aggression, and death, and that it is important to purchase books solely about that specific type of reptile before purchasing it.
