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.

Great looking snake! Porphs are a real challenge to photograph. I usually put a bowl or a hide box over them and lift it off really quickly when I'm ready. They usually freeze and it takes them about 10 seconds to realize they can take off again.

Yeah, that often works for me too but not so far with this guy. Most of these pictures are from when he arrived and he is actually in shed in them, he attempted to shed while being shipped, I think, but got none of it off at all, which I didn't realize for a few days. Then I got to mess around for him for several days, trying to help him get it off. Finally we found the right combination of humidity and something he could use to rub against enough to get it started and shed in almost one piece. The last two pics are freshly shed.
I was just so happy that this guy arrived alive! The first one I was sent arrived DOA, the first time that's ever happened to me, was quite devastated. Was a heat pack fatality, I think. But the seller straight up replaced him, so I'm for the most part satisfied with how that turned out.

That's too bad about the DOA. I've never had a problem with that seller. I'm glad he took care of you and sent a replacement.

Beautiful! Those bands have definitely lightened.
Mine have been locking up like crazy and my female looks like she is definitely gravid. (She faked me out last year though). I cooled them this year and I'm hopeful that she'll give me something to incubate.

Fingers crossed! If she does give you some nice eggs, we'd definitely be interested in getting a female from you!
