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.

Just curious, what does the snake weigh now and how did the pups get in her belly? Did she eat or was she force fed?

Since it's been a year I honestly cannot remember. Her weight when I got her was more than likely full or had something in her because she pooped a week or so later. I cannot explain her weight loss but through it all she never looked deathly skinny. She was slender, as any picky eater will look.
Sarah, I really try with my snakes. To the point where I'm failing school because I'm more focused on them. Which is why we are temporarily getting out. I cannot explain her weight loss. I really can't. But she gained it all back. I would not sell a snake that lost that weight and never fully regained it. She came to me at about 1500-1600 grams and I sold her at close to 2000.

For future reference I suggest you weigh all snakes on a weekly basis, if not weekly... definitely bi-weekly. I weigh my snakes often to insure proper growth and health. It also gives me knowledge to pass to potential other owners of any I choose to sell down the road.
In this day and age, there is a camera on everything....

I do weigh them weekly. I weighed her as well. But since it's been so long and I don't have her card, I'm not going to throw numbers out there.

Maybe this has been addressed and I just haven't seen it.
But if the snake is still ill/not eating then the OP should really take it to the vet, regardless of whether Samantha foots the bill.

You should also keep a PDF or electronic style spreadsheet. Hard-copied papers are not always the best source to store information.
Just a word of advice.
Agree, the snake should be taken to the vet for a well-check. Should be 65.00 or cheaper.

A few pages back I stated that we make paper copies as well as copy them into excel. The original copy goes to the buyer. I even ship them with snakes. I already learned from all of this.

Hated to have to do this, but, I felt it was necessary for future reference for those considering 'anything' with Mrs. Walters.
*The blur in the text is a word, omitted for obvious reasons by me .
These two were good friends. Hmm!

Funny how you know nothing of the situation brandy, but please continue oh and I actually have a screen shot of kaitlins friend saying she will beat me with a bat. What a nice crowd. I've never threatened anybody. I was never friends with kaitlin. I simply helped her out. She's literally just upset because someone locally asked who breeders were in flagstaff, so I answered truthfully.

I find it even more hilarious that kaitlin has this exact status blocked from me. She has my phone number, tell her to grow up and actually talk to me instead of hide behind facebook.
