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.

Guys! This could be the next Donald Trump here! I admire your enthusiasm, but take this as a wee lesson as you enter our mad and crazy world of herpetology.
1)Never try to kid a kidder.. unless you are playing the pyramid system, we will always catch you out (esp when trying to sell enclosures.. they are a bit of a sore point)
2)No matter how much you think you know.. there is ALWAYS someone who knows more.. ffs half of these guys can get your postcode and primary school English teachers name if they want.
3)This combines two actually, but is important.. ENJOY your hobby and be HONEST in all your dealings.. not just with others, but with yourself. It will make life easier, and get you some more of those people I mentioned above (the ones who know more) as friends.. and they can be valuable assets in your life as a Herp hobbiest.
Good luck wee man.. and remember, get your Ma or Da to conclude any deals you want to proceed with.

I can remember when I was around his age trading football cards.I'm sure I'm not the only one who traded a crappy player for a good one. If someone takes him up on it,thats on them.Andre,my daughter is your age(12)and there have been times that she wants to sell one of her snakes at our local shows.I let her come up with what she wants for it. One thing that I taught her was that you have to stay at a fair market price.If not,you wont be able to sell it therefor you wont be able to get what you wanted with the money.Nothing comes easy.If you can only make a $100 profit,then mow some lawns or rake some leaves and you will have your money before you know it. What I would strongly suggest is in the future,have a parent post for you that way your age wont be a problem. Good luck.
Rick
