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.

It's awesome that you are trying to do right by your snake but as others have mentioned it's most likely illegal to return to the wild but more importantly it's simply unethical because this snake could potentially introduce something to other animals.

Thanks for the link Rich.
FWC have CB species that are being reintroduced in Florida.
If you go to the website they have several species they are working with.
The one "bad" thing with snakes is that wild colonies have pheromone trails that are used by the collective to navigate, particularly terrestrial forms. If a species is reintroduced into an area that has little or no population this can make it difficult for them to find safe shelter, adequate food and other animals for procreation.
If the Corn snake is released back where it was collected and this "infrastructure" is still in place there is a good chance it will readjust. Instinct is a powerful thing and reintroduced snakes have survived even when released back into an extrepated colony local. As far as the introduction of desease, seems he has done due diligence to assure there is low risk. Truth be told, the snake is more at risk from wild pathogens since it has been free of them in captivity and it may have a lowered tolerance to them.

If you really care for him, you will keep him or rehome him, not release him into the wild, which will 100% be a death sentence.
