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.

Rat Breeders, I Would Really Appreciate Some Help
I've come to the conclusion that pretty much no one breeds rats in Terre Haute, Indiana. I cannot breed my own rats right now because I have nowhere to keep them. Pet stores usually don't have what I need, and when they do they charge way more than I can afford. And I have the same problem with ordering frozen rats from big companies online. The rats themselves have decent prices, but I can't afford the shipping costs.
I was hoping that maybe someone on here could help me. Does anyone know rat breeders in Terre Haute or close by? I normally feed live rat pups to my babies and live medium rats to my adults, but I would be willing to feed them frozen if I can't find anyone close enough to buy live from and prices are affordable.
To contact me, my email is alysamorley@gmail.com, or you can call or text me at 812-264-2380.
Please help me keep my snakes' stomachs full!
Thanks so much for reading,
Alysa.

Just a suggestion, but if you are already having troubles finding rats, and your snakes will accept frozen, then you are probably much better off staying with frozen. Because even if you are able to find one breeder, your going to lay it all down on that one breeder for how long? How long are they going to breed etc? Where as, you will always be able to purchase frozen. Shipping may be high, but order in bulk, that way it cuts some shipping cost out (less frequent orders) and you have a supply for a long time.
Just my 2 cents though...

My whole point is I would really like to find someone local until I can get back to having reliable sources. If not, then so be it, I'll have to buy frozen or not locally. But that is not high on my list of options at this time.
Thanks for your suggestion though.

You should look to see if there are any local reptile shows in your area. You can often make friends with local breeders there or you can stock up on frozen without paying the shipping.

Great suggestion. I do go to a few shows that aren't too far away and I have met a lot of people in the past. Unfortunately I haven't been to any local shows in about a year. I am hoping to start going again soon and that is always a great option.
Thanks,
Alysa.
