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

    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.

Above is adult male NOT for sale - (at least not even within the ballpark of reasonable offers considered)



This is a pic of one of the hatchlings for sale


Available right now: one female CB 2018 White Calico Ratsnake.

Yes whoever buys this is guaranteed to be offered next male or heterozygous male available. I'm holding back majority of the clutch this year after seeing just how impressive this project has turned out.

This is a bloodline that has only been offered a few times in the past and visual morphs I've sold maybe about a half dozen. A simple recessive trait just like amel, anery, hypo etc;

Many people have inquired as to the species since this "designer morph" coloration throws some folks off, including well versed colubrid snake people! This is a North American Black Rat Snake: Pantherophis obsoleta. Great genetics, adults get fairly large - Daddy is 6.5 feet mommy 5.5 and I never power fed. No nose rubbing behavior seen here in my breeding stock. The babies can be a bit nippy with the typical light, more bluff than chomp ratsnake bite but as a whole they tend to be more tame, docile and definitely less nervous than most North American ratsnakes (obsoleta complex). We selectively bred for these traits, lighter coloration and behavior more fitting for captive animals. Some of these guys show faint striping as adults, others do not. Some are more white and others show more pink/yellow but always the signature dalmation/calico markings/patterns show up. The babies all look nearly exactly the same and change as they grow, each exhibiting and individual look and becoming more attractive as they blossom into adulthood.
$225 plus shipping which usually $45 for overnight W LAG anywhere in the continental USA besides Florida. READ FULL AD BEFORE INQUIRING. I WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT ARE ALREADY ANSWERED IN THIS AD!

Terms of Service, Please Read before placing order:

Live Arrival Guarantee (LAG): LAG is valid on overnight shipments only. Overnight shipments are sent with a tracking number and on a ship date the customer agrees on and a signature is required on delivery. Live arrival is guaranteed on all overnight shipments provided somebody signs for the package on the FIRST delivery attempt.

The LAG is VOID when : a signature on delivery is waived, a 2 day shipping method is chosen, or if nobody signs for the package and it needs to be re-delivered. All claims must be made the same day that the animals arrive and photographic evidence needs to be provided with the claim. Replacements, credit (usually generous), or refund will be given once the photo evidence has been provided. NO REFUNDS ON SHIPPING COST, NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR CARRIER DELAYS (I suggest giving a day or 2 leeway when picking a ship date).
 
Thank you! ......and a WANTED AD

My clutch was unexpectedly female heavy this year. I only originally planned to sell one girl and after so much demand from good folks and once all were sexed (I waited until they all ate and shed first) I sold three girls quite quickly and there is still one more girl that I am willing to let go. I'm looking to find a young adult female hypo/albino Everglades for my male. Also wanted is a very dark black, black ratsnake young female adult. I am willing to be more than fair in trade offers plus cash if you have the right animals.

Calico Ratsnakes

You had inquired about my line of Dalmation Calico Ratsnakes back in November after I was sold out. I am selling off one holdback and a couple of the 100 percent hets right now if you are still interested.
I emailed a few people back on it and I think you were one but the email did not match the name so I'm sending you a pm too. Contact me via email: [email protected] for a list pics and details if still interested.
 
No. Not expecting any again until summer of 2020, if we are lucky. Price will be a little higher too since the next generation the genes are refined.
SOLD definitely SOLD

Accidentally bumped ad! AD is outdated. Sorry for all the confusion.
