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

    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.

These two garg boys are all feeding well on a rotation of all flavors of Pangea Fruit Mix Complete (PFMC). I really hate listing them, but I cannot keep expanding my groups and have additional male holdbacks who will be ready to breed for the 2017 season. Tough decisions are needing to be made.

My paypal email is [email protected]. Please email me (fastest response; I rarely/inconsistently check messages on fauna) with any questions, shipping quote inquiry, etc. For more photos of these geckos and to see many other available animals, please visit my available auric page here.

Osiris - Traded

Big PROVEN male! I love this guys subtle coloration and his nice gray base color, which I feel is super unique. He's been a good boy and a good breeder, but I'm forced to sell some of my breeders to keep my collection size manageable. Really hate to do it since he isn't related to most of my breeders and holdbacks, but I'm limited on appropriate geckos to pair him with. He does have his full original tail, with no nips. He has a minor lip curl on both sides of his mouth, which is healing up and will go away.

You can handle this guy, and some days are better than others. He sits well and is goofy, but some of his off days he can be a little flighty. Really depends on his mood and situation.

Produced by: Gecko Holic Reptiles
Hatch Date: 2008

Fructose (Gatma130063) - Traded

Ok, maybe not technically proven yet... But this guy has his first fertile eggs in the incubator now! This awesome looking guy has partial orange side and lateral bars, which is an interesting contrast to his red background. He does have his full original tail with some minor scaring and a minor bite spot healing up on his head from breeding. I paired him a bit small, but he will continue to put weight on.

Parents: Atum x Ma'at
Weight: 36.7 grams (8.29.16)
Hatch Date: 8.21.2013
Sex: Male

I may be interested in trades for the animals listed here only. I have very limited space for incoming animals, therefore I have to be very picky and selective. Please don't be offended if a trade offer is refused.

If you would like to make a purchase, please be sure to read through my terms for more information regarding payment, shipping and guarantees which is available for viewing here. My BOI is available for viewing here.
