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

    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.

A lot of the scam photos I have seen look just like this one. And usually they are trying to sell an albino or pied nothing else.

Hello and thanks for the interest you have in my 2 Piebald pythons,and an albino python.I am sorry for my late respond. I have been breeding pythons for 3 years now, I have two Piebald pythons available including an albino python, they are all 10 months old but the albino is 11 weeks and 2 days old, they are great eaters, they feed on frozen food, they are well trained, vaccinated, easy to handle and very friendly, they have all papers and will be coming along with a huge stainless steel cage, I know you have been wondering why am giving them out, This is actually due to that fact that, I was transferred and relocated to the United states, Carlifornia. I work as a nurse here. And the apartment I live in, my landlady does not permit me keeping my pythons so i was given some time to find a new home for my pythons, so i am looking for a very loving and caring home for them. And it will take just about 7 to 8 hours on flight to get to you if you are located in the united states and the will be well handled and taken care of at the shipping agency. What am scared of is if i will be able to trust in you as a very loving and caring home for my pythons because what the need now the most is much attention and love.
All we want is a good and caring home or breeder where this pythons can be loved and well taken care of o.k. Each of the pythons will cost you $300 for each and $900 for all three including transportation and delivery. it includes everything okay so you don't have to worry yourself. i will have to use a pet courier to ship the pythons over to you so you will have to send the $400 for each Pythons flight fee to me so i can use to pay for their flight. And i will love to know have some info on your environment and on you so i know the kind of home my pythons will be going to.
We have attached the pictures of the pythons available so look at the pictures and make your choice so that we can proceed with the delivery of the python of your choice to your home address okay.

Thanks and waiting to hear from you
regards
