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

    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.

Prices are marked without shipping. Will not go any lower on price, and will not ship. It is too cold right now.

Here is my whole collection up for sale.

1.1 Giant Mack Snow (3 mos old) - $400 for both OR $250 for the male who is also eclipse and $200 for the female (you know what you can make with these two - great deal for both of them).
0.1 Super Giant Normal het tremper albino (1 year old) - $300 - just weighed her, she is in at a hefty 99 grams
0.1 Giant Tremper Albino (1 year old) - $ 75
1.0 Snow Enigma (3 years old) - $50
1.0 Bell Albino (age unknown) - $50 - this guy is a mean little guy, will attack your hand if you put it in his cage. He's been like this ever since I picked him up from the pet shop, and I can't break him of it. lol


4 Repti Racks - 4 feet wide, 2 feet deep, 1 foot tall, split up into 4 one foot sections. - $100 each
Helix DBS-1000 Thermostat - spoken for at this moment but if buyer backs out $100 shipped

All hardware is under a year old, and in great shape. I am in Navarre, Florida which is by Pensacola.

I was wanting to buy some of these geckos but do not want all the equipment. I am located Pensacola so nothing will be shipped. I am new to this website and don't fully know how to work it so please call or text me at (850)-255-7157 thankyou for your time.
 
Ok, willing to do this. Willing to separate but will not ship any GECKOS at the moment, it is too cold and I just don't want to run the gamble of having one of them pass away on the trip. I care about these guys too much to let something like that happen to them. I will however, ship hardware. Updated original post with individual prices. I do have pics and weights also, so PM me for details.
