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.

Regurgitation Help-Trying to throw-up, nothing coming out??
Hi, i caught my boa with his mouth open, trying to vomit this morning..but nothing but some juices and what looked like salavic-blood came out..I've never seen these behavior before..Is he ill? He's been eating, pooping, drinking, shedding, acting fine..but this worried me. :shrug: He finished soon after I caught him doing it, and went back to being his normal self..
Just looking for someone to help shed some light on the issue.
Thanks for reading.

If he was only yawning, that would be one thing, but if any fluids were coming out of his mouth, especially blood, I would call the vet. Over the Internet any of us can "guess" at what happened, but a vet can tell you for sure.
I hope everything turns out ok for you!! I've just never heard of such an occurrence and I've had LOTS of snakes of the past couple of decades.

Were you able to see inside his mouth when it was open?? If so, was there a decent amount of fluid in there? I don't want to scare you over nothing, but I've never see a good scenario where any fluid came out of the mouth, UNLESS he had just taken a drink.
