The same reason next year's car models always come out in the last quarter of the previous year? :confuzd:

Re: Reptile Magazine
I am surprised with over 4 million reptile owning households (US) that "Reptiles" is the only option. It isn't bad but seems driven towards a young (and beginner) audience.

Re: Reptile Magazine
I use too....Ive got boxes full of them.
...but honestly, the internet has basically replaced the magazine for me. Anything in the magazine can basically be found online.
...I remember sending SASE's out all the time when I was younger. But now everyone has websites, so there is no need. :salute:

I just subscribed a month ago, haven't got my December issue yet but I'll have to check my mail. Jerhart - I know you can find the info online but I don't get a lot of mail, it's always nice to find pics of reptiles in your mailbox :)

Re: Reptile Magazine
I've been subscribing for a little over two years now. It's been like that the entire time. Every other magazine I've ever subscribed to (quite a few in the last 25 years or so!) has always come out a month ahead (November's issue in October, for instance)....but Reptiles has always been two months ahead...almost three, because it comes out at the beginning of the month. It's weird and I have no idea why they do that.

waltah!
Re: Reptile Magazine
I get em because I won a subscription to it for a year. That year will be up soon and I probably won't pay for another year. I kinda like it, but i'm not as into turtles and frogs as many others are and they focus heavily on them. I like Kevin's article on retics this month though!

Re: Reptile Magazine
Yeah , I just got it, this is the best one in awhile. Retics are the special, including alot of morph pictures, plus an article on Rufous Beaked Snakes (which I love). There is so little info on beaked snakes, I was very pleased to see they were featured in Reptiles. At the same time, I wish there were a couple other ones out there, maybe even one dedicated to just snakes.

Re: Reptile Magazine
I used to subscribe when I was a kid, but after a while I realized I could get the milk for free without buying the cow (i.e. go to BooksaMillion or elsewhere once a month and read it).
I was on the magazine's online forum (ReptileChannel.com) for a few years, but the site is predominantly run by children under 18 and one moderator who knows nothing of reptiles. They often ban you for no reason, so I am definitely not giving them any support now.
