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.

Again, if my rodents were the source of the problem, wouldn't all my snakes be suffering as a result and not just the ones that came from Ed? Is it really that likely that a feeder rat from a private breeding colony would cause this level of infestation and 3 different parasites? I'm all for having a few of my rats tested, I'm just wondering what kind of likelihood we're talking about here and why everyone's snakes aren't crawling in parasites if it's really that easy.

What if the only infected snakes in her entire collection turned out to be the ones that she got from Ed?

I can't speak for everyone else but that would be 100% proof positive for me where the parasites came from. We'll see how the results turn out on Thursday...

Well, Emily I don't think that posting dishonesty and bad business practices is a bad thing.
You have made a post which hurts a guy's business. You have only lame evidence, at best.
If that's how you feel, then la di frickin da.
I feel you are someone I would never trust.

Slim odds indeed Rick. However, at this point, Emily has had NONE of her collection tested other than the one snake in question. So saying that any of the other snakes have parasites is, at this point, completely unfounded.
That may change, we'll have to wait and see what ALL of the test results are.

Rick, with all due respect, you missed the boat on the life cycle and transmission vectors of the tapeworm.
Hope we can still be friends, because I like all your other posts.

I did have a few of my other snakes tested earlier this year and all were clean. No, I do not have the vet reports at this second, however seeing as how I am getting my entire collection tested (or in some cases re-tested) I will just post all of the most current results when I get them.
