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

    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 can't afford everything right away and most I could use pay plans, but here is my list and when I am looking to afford them. I am searching now because I want to find the right breeder and exact right snakes for me, even though finances are tight right now.

This is basically my birthday wish list, lol, which is Jul 1 hint hint. Sure would be nice to find the rest of my dream but know I can't have it all so ill settle for what I can find and afford at the time. Keep my email if you have any upcoming hatchlings. [email protected]

For the ivory blood, I was thinking around October but it depends a lot on price and flexibility of payment plan. If you have a male young'un to sell sooner, I can afford a small deposit (maybe $100) on the first of June and depending on the full cost possibly have one paid off in 90 days. Just drop me a line and we can talk!

I am looking for an adult (pref female, but this is not essential) Savu python. Doesn't have to be huge, but I don't want a tiny wormy little baby. For a Savu I was thinking by August... Or just whenever one shows up.

Finally I have an adult male southern black white lip. I am looking for an adult or sub adult female, may settle for a baby. The soonest I can do this would be July and even that is only if your payment plan is extremely flexible. Ideally, October.
Alternately if I find no females I may make my 9' black phase southern white lip available as trade. $1200 value as that's roughly what I paid.

Other interests, not as important to me but if you're not having luck finding buyers come look for me and see what we can work out...
Blue tegu(sub/adult)
A nice retic like ivory or plat calico stripe
Blue beauty snake
Male silver streak BP, any age, above average looks
Blood boa, above average
Adult Dominican red mtn boa
Het sterling (has to be after October, LT pay plan)
Female ghi combo
Female ghost boa cons, het Moonglow must look above average
Leucistic rainbow boa with heterochromia, blue/black eye pref with size but will take a baby can start a payment plan probably in late August or sept

Yup I think that's basically my exhaustive list! Why so many snake plans, one might wonder? Rather simple. I love snakes and reptiles. I volunteered in rescue and tried for two years to get a college degree in herpetology but I kept getting more sick as the years passed and I gave up on the dream of becoming a herpetologist, rescue worker, and a breeder.
Well, not anymore. I'm following my heart and trying to do as much as I can with all the time left, as I am terminally ill within the next 10 years or so. I am literally living like I am dying, with no regrets. Once I am home, my husband, sisters, brother, mother, cousins and closest friends already know what animals they prefer to take and keep and which ones they would foster and find good homes for.
