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 lurk and post
i do both i post when i have had a good transaction or if i feel it is something that concerns me enough that i feel i can deal with the mass bashings from the regulars that ban together to give a tounge lashing to anyone who does not believe the same way they do it gets real crazy sometimes you get 3-4 groups of members that stick together slam each other back and forth and then you have to read through 20 pages of stupid stuff to even find out what happend with someone's dealings.i just try not get sucked into the b.s.
i think this site could really be awesome without all the b.s. i think it is informative if you did not read all the crazy stuff. so like i said i lurk and i post.

I lurk a lot.
I'm also new to reptiles. I had never heard the word herp before I started coming on here regularly (this week), I had to google it
I would like to own some, at some point, but I have to start small and get my husband used to the idea (he hates herps of any species)
Sometimes I don't post as I don't have the experience to help, occasionally its because I don't know whats being talked about and don't want to appear 'stupid'
From lurking I learn, I have learnt that 1.0 means 1 male 0 females (I hope thats what it means) I think I have learnt that het is something to do with genetics and whether a snake carries a gene for a particular colour etc (still not sure and considering starting a thread to confirm it).
I have definitely started posting more now and will continue to do so

Hey T newb ,
Its the decimal point....as in 1.2.03
The number before the decimal point means the number of males ONE, 1.
The number after the decimal point means females, TWO .2
The number in tenths means that the sex is unknown,usually referring to baby's that are too young to sex. .03
Hope that helps.

Thanks I have a lot to learn but I'm slowly picking things up. By the time I actually get to own a herp I will be an expert

I just feel it's kind of useless for me to post here. I can't really help people yet. And my questions either go unanswered and ignored or I get a canned response that I've read in tons of care sheets/other websites that doesn't really help. And if I just try to make conversation, I get treated kind of rudely.

I really think it is what you make it. I always wonder when someone states they have been mistreated or ignored what may be the problem. So, I took the liberty to look at all your previous posts.
You asked a couple of questions here and received pleasant answers. Nobody was rude.
http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...d.php?p=482623
You asked about roaches and received a friendly response.
http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...ad.php?t=93362
Again, questions and/or statements responded to by other members.
http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...ad.php?t=96560
You posted a thread on the BOI. A member of this site asked you a question. That was on 2/22. You still haven’t responded.
http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...d.php?p=489686
You asked if the show was good. The person responded that it was great. No question unanswered.
http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...d.php?p=492073
When Bobby tried to help you with your tegu you posted.

It's still really hard to catch him. He gets out of his cage every time and then I have to catch him running around in my room. Now I have to use a butterfly net to catch him in his cage. It's pretty much the only way to get him into his feeding cage now.
BTW, I'm not really asking for advice. I know this will take a while. I'm just updating and maybe someone will have some technique that they know of. Thanks for reading.

You told him his information didn’t answer your question but you would take his last suggestion. You then posted your not asking for advice.
I can’t find anyone being rude.
I can only find you ignoring others who tied to help you on the BOI.
Actually I found many took the time to respond to you.
You haven’t been very gracious about it either.

I guess u can call me a lurker. I just like to read the discussions to better educate myself on different problems. Or if i run into a problem with my one reptiles i might have a solution from reading the forums. Or just get ideas and keep up with whats going on with breeding and things like that.

Adding one more "oh, lovely snake" or "oh how sad" or "yay, babies" to a thread already full of 'em is pointless, in my opinion. I post when I have something to say that's not been said a bazillion times already.
