    =====================

    I am still waiting on my developer to finish up on the Classifieds Control Panel so I can use it to encourage members into becoming paying members. Google Adsense has become a real burden on the viewing of this site, but honestly it is the ONLY source of income now that keeps it afloat. I tried offering disabling the ads being viewed by paying members, but apparently that is not enough incentive. Quite frankly, Google Adsense has dropped down to where it barely brings in enough daily to match even a single paid member per day. But it still gets the bills paid. But at what cost?

    So even without the classifieds control panel being complete, I believe I am going to have to disable those Google ads completely and likely disable some options here that have been free since going to the new platform. Like classified ad bumping, member name changes, and anything else I can use to encourage this site to be supported by the members instead of the Google Adsense ads.

    But there is risk involved. I will not pay out of pocket for very long during this last ditch experimental effort. If I find that the membership does not want to support this site with memberships, then I cannot support your being able to post your classified ads here for free. No, I am not intending to start charging for your posting ads here. I will just shut the site down and that will be it. I will be done with FaunaClassifieds. I certainly don't need this, and can live the rest of my life just fine without it. If I see that no one else really wants it to survive neither, then so be it. It goes away and you all can just go elsewhere to advertise your animals and merchandise.

    Not sure when this will take place, and I don't intend to give any further warning concerning the disabling of the Google Adsense. Just as there probably won't be any warning if I decide to close down this site. You will just come here and there will be some sort of message that the site is gone, and you have a nice day.

    I have been trying to make a go of this site for a very long time. And quite frankly, I am just tired of trying. I had hoped that enough people would be willing to help me help you all have a free outlet to offer your stuff for sale. But every year I see less and less people coming to this site, much less supporting it financially. That is fine. I tried. I retired the SerpenCo business about 14 years ago, so retiring out of this business completely is not that big if a step for me, nor will it be especially painful to do. When I was in Thailand, I did not check in here for three weeks. I didn't miss it even a little bit. So if you all want it to remain, it will be in your hands. I really don't care either way.

    =====================
    Some people have indicated that finding the method to contribute is rather difficult. And I have to admit, that it is not all that obvious. So to help, here is a thread to help as a quide. How to become a contributing member of FaunaClassifieds.

    And for the record, I will be shutting down the Google Adsense ads on January 1, 2025.

I have a male and female 100% het for albino.They are both kahl strain, and from comletely different breeders.I have the paper work that was given to me by the people i recieved them from.Im hoping for a local sale but may ship.Also have the cages they are being housed in...fairly new from ConstrictorsSW 48X24X14.Pics up hopefully tomorrow.Best offer [email protected]
 
Im actually getting out of reptiles for the moment.I may be seperating from my girlfriend and i cant afford to keep them.My home phone is 1-616-987-9325 pick up would be fine.You can leave your name and number and ill try to get back to you by the weekend.Thanks for your interest Josh McDermott
 
Well, i was hoping on selling them as a pair.If i could do it locally or meet someone halfway that would be better yet.Ive shipped snakes and geckos before...not ones this big but neonates.Just seems everytime i go down to u.p.s they question me like im dealing drugs over the mail or something.Dont get me wrong they arent huge boas i fed them every week for the first two years i had them and i started laying off and feeding one large rat every 10 to 14 days.I didnt want to powerfeed them and i wasnt in a rush to breed them...just a fun hobby for me.Originally i paid 250 for the male 350 for the female.Id like to at least make my money back on the PAIR.If your nearby ill sell the cages too.
 
but like i said best offer.Ill make a hell of a deal on the cages and the pair for anyone that wants to pick them up.Ill let the cages go with the ultratherm and thermostat.I left my phone number...if your serious and in the area ill make a good deal but ill ship if it comes down too it.I really dont want to sell but you gotta do what you gotta do.Thanks Josh McDermott
 
Well I won't have the money for them till the end of oct. I have to go to the taylor show and sell some stuff and once it sells than i will have the money. I just didn't know if you wanted smaller snakes or w/e. But if you still have them and still looking to get rid of them then pm me on here
