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.

That could be why you haven't! They prefer cooler temps.

This one definitely seems to. It's very active too. I've got him in a 20 gallon tall aquarium for now, with a uth and some driftwood. Put a hide box on each end, one on the warm and one on the cool. It barely uses the hide box, and definitely doesn't hang out on the warm end. Spends most of it's time doing what appears to be looking for a way out. lol
The guy who caught does a/c repair work, and says he comes across them once in awhile along with other non-venomous snakes, usually around or under the a/c units. Definitely a need find, but we live too far out in the woods, and no medical insurance, so I'm not gonna take chances with keeping hots. But, I'm overly careful with this little guy (i.e. leaving him in his tank, welding gloves to move anything in there, and only when he's hiding out).

Beautiful snake. I remember how excited I was when I caught an Eastern Coral in Florida a couple of years ago.

he's definitely a cute little bugger. and still active as heck. i'm half tempted to keep him, but i don't have anything to feed the darn thing, and prolly too cold to find any kind of colubrids around here. rats!
