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.

Albino Scarlet Kingsnakes- they do exist.
There's some dispute whether or not albino scarlet kingsnakes exist. Here is a picture I found online. I don't own the snake, the pictures not mine, its just evidence they exist. I once had contact with the owner of a female albino scarlet king. Hoping to find him again as he may be interested in the "tangerine phase" I have for sale.

More on Scarlet Kings
Here are 2 SK I found (and released) this past Spring in Central FL.
Never heard the term "tangerine phase" used to describe them. Tangerine phase started way back with Honduran Milksnakes to distinguish the darker specimens from the really nice light bright ones. To me, in my opinion, all SK are tangerine phase. But just as all snakes, there are regional variance and as seen in the darker specimen I found, even local variations with the immediate populations.
Also, many, many moons ago I collected the coolest aberrant pattern SK ever!
I'll see if I can dig up that old photo and somehow post it.
Sure would like to know the story behind the albino SK, super nice!

we have white banded ones in sc. Yellow bands are in fl. some of the florida yellow bands have a orange hue, Those are the ones coined tangerine phase. just like in hondos some locales had more orange instead of yellow bands making them bi-color. The point here is if someone refined these orange phase scarlets they would no doubt make astounding albinos. Beautiful snakes and thanks for the photos.

since we have the yellow type posted I will post pics of the white phase and another pic of the orange phase. The pic I took is poor quality but shows the orange a little better than the one from yesterday which didn't show the orange hue very well.

It would be way more obvious if we had all three snakes together in daylight but we can all see the differences now. It reminds me of the subtle differences in western hogs that make a huge difference when used in morphs.
