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

    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 sent the pics to all (I think). I now have all the pics. I believe I've sent all requested. If I've missed any, please email me at [email protected]. sorry to update this way but since I was the last person to post, I can't update anyone without editing my own listing. As far as babies, go, only

I've been on fauna a lot over the last year and have been building my collection for educational and breeding purposes. Do to my medical conditions I have to downsize and sell upcoming babies as they hatch.
I have 16 large snakes, here's what I'd like to move:
* Pair of yellow head retics het for amel and clark strain albino. Male is about 7 feet and the female is about 8. (500 for the pair)
* Proven pair of double het Burms (albino and green) male is 14+ and female is around 10 feet, getting ready to lay first clutch. (450 for the pair)
* 10 foot female tiger het albino. (just purchased for 300 plus shipping) 300 shipped
* 10/11 foot male albino tiger. (purchased from monster for 800) 800 shipped
* In the incubator - greens, albino's and jungle burms. (make offers on lots)
* Still to come is the double het breeding, which of course will produce normals, hets, double hets, greens, albinos and albino greens.
I can't get around yet for pics but call or pm to discuss prices for individuals or wholesales on the babies. 859 609 9969.
thanks Keith
Also willing to part with my pride - 20 foot female tiger het albino (2500)

PM's sent back.
I just bought both. Paid 300 plus shipping for the 10 foot female het albino tiger and paid 800 for the albino tiger male - came from monster. I'm willing to lose some. $1000 shipped for both.
 
Chester and all, I put the prices on the original. Thanks for the responses. I've already had 9 pm messages.
Chris Lee. You are correct. The male is a bateater (50% burm and 50% retic) the female is an albino burm.
 
Interested in the jungle brumes let me know what you want for the lot. if you looking to sell everything in the incubator then also let me know what you woud want out of that
 
Hello all, just so you know, I have responded to everyone in some form. Ronald, I'm looking through the camera because I have request for pics, as I should, I just need to find them. I'm struggling to get those only because I'm stuck on my back. However, those two are small enough that I should be able to get some today. I'll do my best, but when I move around I am on crutches and no one helps me. (Except my boys but they are only here every other weekend :( ), thanks Keith
Just an update on the eggs. I have sold just a few groups of 3 of each. Expected still are greens, albino's and jungles. The female double het still has not layed hers. Those will be normals (hets too) and greens, and albino greens. For the 3 waiting pics of the 20' tiger, they will be coming as soon as I have my son help me. The best pic is my screen saver, I just need to figure out how to sent that pic.
 
I understand. I can and will be pacient. I've always wanted a pair of yellow heads. And being double het amel/albino to boot as well. I am producing alot of boa morphs and some green granite stuff but it sounds like your looking to sell mainly not trade? Would you happen to know the breeder that produced them. I think I saw these on fauna awhile back. Thanks.
 
I just sent them. I had to have my sons help to retrieve them. Anyone else need them, I have the big tiger, and the ten foot tiger pics from fall. As soon as I get a little help, I'll have pics of the male albino tiger (10/11 feet) and the yellow head pair het clark albino and amel.
Thanks Keith
