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.

Looking for feeding tubes - sources/suggestions?
Well my soucre for purchasing the red rubber catheter feeding tubes is no longer in business. So I'm trying to find a new source. Also would be curious what everybody here uses when it comes to tube feeding. Thanks in advance.

I have purchased puppy feeding tubes from Valley Vet supply. I would imagine it would be what you're looking for, though I'm not sure if it would be the correct size....I'd think they would have other sizes available.

Finding feeding tubes
My local major hospital has a pharmacy in it, and they can get me anything I need in pretty much any size. They have HUGE catalogs of stuff. They found me a catheter that was wide enough and long enough to tube feed a 9' boa. Try calling information at your local hospital.

I ended up getting some from my local hospital. I looked at the bean farm awhile back, and found their prices for those catheter tubes to be a high.

Hello
Hello,
Great that you found some feeding tubes at the hospital, that will work. How is it going with the feeding anyway?
The tubes we got from beanfarm were a little expensive, but they were good quality though.
Glad you were able to find what you needed.

No problems with feeding. I was just looking for a new source, so I could restock the medicine cabinet for future use if need be. I had used my last one a few weeks ago on a snake. After one force feed, the snake began to understand the concept of feeding on his own. lol
