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.

I've lived in Florida all my life and I've never seen a wild monitor before. Good luck with your new monitor!

That is crazy. Wild nile(s) in Florida. Looks like you have a cool little boy/girl on your hands. Perhaps a name like asphalt is in order

WOW, there are a lot of exotic reptiles that have established themselves in Florida.
Check out this link:

You have to wonder when they'll outlaw non-native herp ownership in Florida if this becomes too big of a problem.

He is drinking and soaking in a large water dish, He has pooped and you can clearly see roaches and some beatle remains, common bugs I recognized right away, He is very healthy now moving around climbing the cage. and has a very thick tail, looks a lot better then most pet store imports. He hasn't feed yet, but all I have tried feeding him were mealworms, I will pick up some pinkies or a small mouse when I can find a good place to get one locally. I have to dig up my book. I have heard storys of tame niles, but never seen one. I might have to start looking for a nice new home for this guy. any info on niles would be great.
