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.

Question Regarding My Possible Wishlist
Would planning on owning 16 snakes, 20 geckos, 33 tarantulas, and 10 amphibians be unrealistic? If so, where should I reduce each of the numbers at?

If you have none now, yes, that's unrealistic.
Start with one or a pair of each group, at the most, and see how it goes. You cannot know if you'll "mesh" with a certain taxon until you've kept them for a while (months, years).
Buying a dozen or two of a type of animal and then discovering a year later that you really don't like that kind of animal is a tough thing to reverse, selling animals and selling or converting enclosures and altering feeder production. Yes, I've been there.
Only you can know how many and which animals you want to care for; only over much time can you come to know this.

Do you own any reptiles/arachnids at all now? If not (and seeing your previous 11 posts/questions), I would suggest you start with the bare minimum. No offense intended, but ownership of any animal/pet requires suitable housing, food, vet care, etc. Said suitable housing, food, etc requires a suitable income and time. I believe you have already been given that same information.
You've been around here long enough to have learned that. You've been around here long enough to do your own research.

Do you have someone who can help you care for the critters if you are sick or injured?
After purchasing these animals and the equipment required to maintain proper husbandry, will you have enough left over for vet bills?
Do you own or rent your home?
