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.

Yes they CAN break the skin...
My male patty, Thorgrim, the one I spoke about yesterday that was a little agressive with one of the girls, decided to make a break for freedom last night while I was topping up mealies and water in the tub, he managed to get out of the tub, and scooted under one of the baseboard heaters in the herp room. Managed to get him out of there and back into his home but man was he TICKED, he tagged my hand twice and broke the skin both times.... didn't hurt, but was ummm... interesting. I was surprised cause I have been tagged by my corns when they were younger and it just seems to me that the leo's bite was actually harder, granted, Thorgrim is an adult male.
But boy was he ever IRRATE! lol.... guess the ladies were driving him crazy and he just wanted outta there! We all know what that can be like don't we guys...
( runs and hides from onslaught of objects thrown by all the ladies on the site, and my fiance!! lol )

Ha, ha. That's weird, my males are no the ones I have to worry about, it's my females. I am scared for my males safety, a few of my girls are just plain nuts. I've only been bitten once, by my female Spaz. She didn't break the skin though.

I was helping my friend sex a large group of juvie leos several years back and there was one that just was not happy being flipped over and looked at. She bit both of us several times, and eventually I had to get a thick leather glove that I normally used to move the pythons around in order to keep her from breaking the skin. Little brat bit down hard...

I got tagged by an albino male at a pet store I used to go to (I hadn't seen the light yet.) He was mean but almost $100 so I couldn't react without "breaking and buying", teehee! I know how you feel!

I have been bitten several times, by a variety of my leos, and as of yet I have not bled. Granted I work with my hands, I am a flooring guy, so my skin is pretty tough, but I am almost jealous I am not in the "drawn blood" club.
On the other hand maybe I don't taste good enough to really bite down on.

I used to be a masonary laboror, and have continued to work with my hands so they are pretty tough too... this little bugger just had a strong bite. I think it wasn't so much the bite, as when he bite he stayed attached and twisted his head, like he was trying to get a chunk...lol...
