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.

Pine Snake Humidity Question
So, I have a new pine snake baby, and I'm worried that the humidity in his enclosure is too high. It's around 55%-57%, which is the ambient humidity in my apartment (yay Miami humidity lol). I can't seem to find a straight answer about what the humidity levels need to be from the caresheets I've read - one said between 40% and 60%, another said below 50%, and most just say 'low' - so I wanted to ask here to see if anyone had a definite answer for me.
If it is too high, I'll invest in a heat lamp + stand or something instead of an UTH to dry out the air, but I'm tight on funds and I don't want to do that if it's not necessary.

A screen lid with ambient humidity is usually fine. Pine snakes range from New Jersey to Guatemala - if you have a little more info on the lineage of your animal we can probably make a better suggestion.

cool, thanks! I'm actually not sure what his lineage is; I think he's a Northern, but I'm not entirely sure.
Here's a picture of him, if that helps.

That is a baby northern. Ambient humidity is fine. No heat lamp. This species like it on the cooler size. I have a group of 8; they are very simple snakes to keep. They have voracious appetites.
