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.

you may not be able to
" get into hots " in the next 5-7 years with the way things are going. I'm not a " dooms slayer " but with my state of being very lenient of past and now proposed a ban of venomous that passed with out ban but a permit restriction and Florida proposing and looking more seriously into tagging hots in captivity...........see my wave ?

Lots of great info in the book and gave me some new plans on how to set up my non-hot herp room as I upgrade too....
Oh, and the second time I saw that it made me laugh too.  |

That may be, but just because it may get more restrictive in the future is no reason to keep them NOW, when we live in a rented apartment, inadequate for keeping venomous in a safe manner, without the money or type of insurance necessary to guarantee treatment in case of envenomation. We do fine with our non-venomous GTP, milks, and geckos for now. In 5-7 years we should have a house, the cash to build an appropriate space and caging, and my husband should have been able to find a mentor and practice with some cranky nonvenomous species. I'll take what the future brings when I get there, but now's not the time for us to keep hots.

I don't really think Mike was suggesting rushing into it. More an example of how "The Man" or, legislation is making things increasingly more dificult when it comes to venomous issues.
At least, that's how it came across to me. ??
