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

    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.

All geckos are feeding well on one part CGD daily with a variety of properly fed and supplemented insects offered once per week.

It is still a bit too cold to ship but I would be happy to hold any gecko below until it is safe.


Shipping is not included in price.


Please pm me here or send me an email at [email protected] for a shipping quote or more information/ photos.



Special: Give a good home to either of the girls and Trouble and I will send Neva or one of his younger siblings along for free.
( photos available upon request )






Nero 40 gram RTB Virgin Female.

Nero is not fired fully in the below pic.
She does fire as dark as I have yet to see any crested with a beautiful light cream.
I had plans to breed her this season and will be sad to see her go. $180

Lyrica 11 gram Probable female $170

It is with much regret that I post this girl and she will only be available for a limited time.
I can not guarantee sex at this size but I have louped her with a 30x lighted loup and have not seen any pores.

Lyrica ranges from a lavender base to more of a pink base when fired.

Trouble 20 gram male $65

Trouble is growing fast now! He is very calm and sweet and will make a fantastic pet regardless of whether you choose to breed him in the future or not.
His pattern is getting more creamy all the time.
Very nice crest/structure and bright pin dashing to boot!
I was really hoping this one would be female.

These are the first of my 2010 babies being offered.
Avery and Neva were both produced by Tophee and Ozai.
Photos of them available upon request.


Avery 5 gram unsexed $50

Avery fires with a nice creamy orange that reminds me very much of sweet potato pie.

"He" does not get darker than this so far.

Neva 4 gram unsexed $45

Neva is the clutchmate to Avery. Though quite his opposite.
Neva is almost always fired.
This one was the brightest among all of my babies.
I don't know if the bright glow will come back or not, but if it does I'll be sorry to have let him go.

Neva unfired, as light as I have ever seen him.
