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.

General Herp Talk Can't figure out where to post down in the other discussion forums? Too many options and too complicated? Well post your herp related messages here and to heck with it.

JohnCA	My snake stopped eating. Any suggestions about "scenting" the pinkies? I have several African house snakes. Infrequently, one or two will stop eating for 2 or 3 months. I have already tried braining pinkies and fuzzies with only very limited success. I currently have a female that is only eating every 4 or 6 weeks. She used to eat voraciously. She slowed to eating only every 4 or 6 weeks, starting about 3 months ago. I really want to fatten her up for eventual pairing with one of my male house snakes. I saw several scenting juices for sale that are made from anoles and frogs and geckos. Any ideas about which of the three scents an African house snake might be interested in? I would guess perhaps anole scent and gecko scent might be some options that are worth trying (thinking that house snakes might eat a variety of lizards in their natural habitat). Thanks for your time and suggestions.
