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.

SOUND OFF!!! Ever have something REALLY bugging you and nowhere to vent about it? Well, this is the place. It does not have to be fauna oriented at all! Get it off your chest right here. |

Somebody tell me again why I live in the NorthEast?
Dec 11, 2008
It's 05:25.
We're having an ice storm & they say it is going to snow later.
The power has been out for hours (I'm at work, & we're on auxilary/generator)
Estimated time for restoration of power - to be determined.
All I wanted to do when I get home is go to bed - now, I have to make sure the critters are warm.
Crap.
Did I mention that I hate winter?
btw - the phones are out too, not that I care, since I leave mine off anyway.

I spent some childhood years in New York. I agree that winter storms are miserable and disheartening. I hope that you and the critters get warm soon.

I'm in PA, I hated that storm, I was suppose to have a snake shipped out that day! Screwed up my whole start of the breeding season :/
And what about the snow we got in Novemeber?!
I have lived here 18 years and I can't ever remember having snow in Novemeber!
It usually doesn't snow until late January!
I want to be warm

Maybe I'm misreading this, but are you planning to breed an animal that you are just getting shipped? I noticed you buying a lot of animals, do you practice quarantine? You might want to do some research on quarantine and the dangers involved in failing to do so.

I really wonder sometimes why I live in Iowa. I'm really starting to hate winter, it was fun as a kid. Most people around here are expecting one of the worst winters we've had in a long time. It doesn't help with the fact I'm stuck with a cast on my foot and crutches, little slippery for me to try to go out.

That's what I meant.. In getting her shipped out later, It is taking me longer to quarentine. Thus backing me up, not long, but backing up none the less.

Harald,
I sympathize with you even though our winter so far is nowhere near as bad as what you are going through.
I'll send warm, iceless, snowless thoughts your way.

Looks like the snow part of the storm crapped out, but things are a mess.
Power will be out til who knows when (a coworker talked to a guy on one of the repair crews, and was told his would probably be out til at least Monday)
My house is sitting at 65, so that isn't horrible. I could care less about lights & stuff as long as it doesn't get too cold for the critters to tolerate.
It is kind of creepy out there, though, lol
