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

    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.

Hi everyone, my wife and I are intrested in selling or trading (for snakes or a rack) a very large reptile cage. The cage is 72 inches tall, 29 inches deep, and 36 inches wide. It's currently white although I'd be willing to paint it depending on how intrested the buyer was. about half way up there's a shelf inside that would work for a basking area. There are 3 light fixtures on the roof of the cage that will hold regular size light bulbs or ceramic heaters, as well as a light fixture along the back for a long uva/uvb bulb. We had the cage for our chinese water dragon but due to us recently parting with him we no longer have need for such a large cage. Also on the front of the cage there are two sliding glass doors to access the animal. The cage is used as an upright cage but I also have a friend who purchased the same cage about two month's after I did due to him liking mine and he uses his laying down, for his pet burmese. The only thing he had to do for that is replace the sliding glass door tracks and the sliding glass doors which he said cost him a little over 20 dollars (buying tracks and the glass from a local glass cutter)

Also included in the cage is about half a jar of the calcium bone powder for lizards, 2 zoo-med 48in reptisun 5.0 uvb bulbs, and one exoterra 30inch 30%uva 5% uvb bulb. I also have a chinese water dragon/iguana leash.

Due to the size of the cage it would have to be pick up only, I would consider delivering depending on distance and compensation!

So, make us and offer, the worst we can say is no!

Here are some pictures

Nobody is intrested? This would make a great Gecko cage or another tree dwelling herp!

Also, turn it on the side and you've got a perfect cage for a large snake!

Come on, make me an offer, I need this big cage outta my house!
 
still up for sale, besides cash I'd also accept a snake rack, a snake or a couple snakes (depending on morph, size, extra) any snake supplies, thermostat, rehostat, also any rodent cages since I've started breeding mice

This cage would be GREAT for a large snake, aboreal snake, a large leopard gecko enclosure, or could fit a large lizard.

There has to be someone out there who's intrested! Just toss me a or reply!
 
It wont let me view the pictures, I am getting a black throat monitor lizard friday so I will be needing a large cage.
 
please i really need the cage for my male iguana it would be really helpful to me and to my family because he is out growing his other tank
i will trade you a 2ft garder snake and a 6inch copper head and $25
or i could give you just $50-$60 for the cage
i am also trying to sell my mali uromastix and my albino leapord gecko and i could give you 1 or both if needed they are very healthy and my mali is full grown
