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.

People showing up with sickly animals is exactly why I pretty much quit going to shows. Scared to death I'll bring something home one day.

It's like going to the hospital or doctor's office. If you weren't sick before you got there, you will be after!

I don't think she'll show up with any animals to sell. I do think it's a possibility that she'll go to acquire more though.
Who knows? I hope I'm wrong.

But who would sell to her?
Let's not forget that this hobby is in so much trouble because of the vendors who have, do and will sell to anyone to make a buck. People who have no business with large boids or less than savory husbandry practices.
I mean, really, who NEEDS 70 boids? Who NEEDS 70 cats? No one can adequately care of those numbers of animals without a workforce of skilled employees. And no one can QT in a private facility (read: a house) with 70+ snakes.
A la the IBD's etiology maybe?

This is getting sort of off topic, but I DO think it is entirely possible for someone who SOLELY relies on their reptile keeping and breeding, and doesn't have another job, to properly care for that many snakes. It's POSSIBLE. It isn't EASY, but possible.

but she shouldn't be breeding them anyway. It should be a literal crime if she sells any of her snakes at this point...

Obviously not in this case.

It would take someone exceptional. But she's exceptional for all the wrong reasons...And the very reason this thread exists is testimony to that.

Now, watch those pictures disappear! I wonder why the Jampea wasn't there? Probably because he was visibly ill! She had him for sale just 13 days after the dates on those pictures.
