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

    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’ve gotten out of boas & need to focus on myself.

Just a note…these pics kinda suck & only took them quick to show a friend. If you want more pics, shoot me an email at: [email protected]
(the 2 females & imported male are also pictured in my fauna album)

Local quick sale for all 4….$850!!!!!!!!! Individual/ Pair prices available. I just need these gone so I could empty out my snake room. =/ Will only trade for something High End like a moonglow, nice blood, leopard, older snow female...etc Something visual unless you have a pair of 100% hets ready to breed


1st is a 2010 pair.....the female is a 4ft stripe possible het snow produced by Brandon Worely. For her baby pic from the breeder…google image search “aneryish freak” & she is the 2nd pic. She lacks red/pink pigment but has hypo saddles which almost had me second guessing whether or not she was a ghost. Very cool, always draws attention. Brandon showed interested in getting her back, but if anything changes, it’s good to have a back up plan. Looking to get $400 obro

The male is a 3ft 100% Triple Het for Orangasm Moonglow bred by Erik Spisak…with a little beefing up, he could be ready soon. Gorgeous peaches, purples & black marks like a paradox….. pics will not do him justice. His sides are gorgeous. Looking to get $500 obro

Locally. I’ll take $650 for the pair as a quick sale!!

As for the 2nd pair, the female is a 2009 Nic Laddertail (don’t see many of these) 66% Possible Het T+…very cool looking & almost looks anery. She’s a 5ft heavy bodied girl & can be overzealous during feeding time. She has some marks on her head from trying to escape recently. (Shedding in the recent pics but has shed since) $300 obro

This male is the epitome of different…he’s an imported dwarf (so his age is unknown, but definitely over 5yrs old) maxing out at about 3ft. I’ve brought him to shows & I haven’t seen anything that really looks like him & breeders couldn’t even tell me what he was for sure…other that he is CA. His eyes look solid black at times, (almost like the black eyed anerys), he has great striping, no lip markings & the craziest tail. Also, he’s pretty smart for a snake which kinda scares me. $225 obro

Will take $425 for the pair! Which for the last 3.5yrs I’ve been psyched to see what they produce. This was a project I really was excited about. =( Who ever gets these 2….PLEASE BREED THEM!! lol
