Hello!

Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.

Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....

Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.

Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.

Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.

Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

The other option is to just send them to me. With my boa breeding track record, that's the best way to know they aren't going to reproduce

LOL

At this point they are pets only. IMO, they should have been culled. Contracts,IMO, are worthless in this "hobby" or "business", there are plenty of examples of this on the BOI. You cant trust that someone isn't going to breed that snake later down the road.

Now i have a question and maybe I missed the answer above. I have read about the eye defect manifesting it's self in different ways. I have read about missing eyes and I've heard of bad eyes to where there is something (skin?) covering the eye that comes off later and the eye seams fine. All of these I have read about is in albinos(never hets from what i have read). So to my question, is it only a genetic defect when there is a missing eye or is the "bad eye" also genetic??
