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.

Info on selling hots in Pa..
Hi I am new on the forums..I live in PA and a friend of mine has some baby western diamondbacks he is trying to find homes for. They were captive born from 2 that he owns..He has been around snakes all his life. check out his you tube video..demoutlaw16601/youtube.com. Anyway he said he needs a license to sell them In PA is that true. Also I was wondering if there are any wholesale dealers who could help out. or give info on the best way to find them homes thank you .

You do not need a licence to sell or buy them in PA, as far as i know. My friend buys and sells Hots all the time in/at the Hamburg show. Some states have laws on how many you can own, have, treat, milk, etc. I would make sure he gives/sells the snake to someone who lives in a venemous and boid friendly state. If not he could face some charges within the other state and lose all his snakes.
check local laws too. Some states may allow it but some towns or cities may not. Like NYC doesn't allow a few pythons and boas that the rest of teh state does. Calling the local wildlife department is always the best option, or go to a taxidermy/shooting store. They are pretty knowlegable on the laws.

Technically, anyone selling herps in PA are required to have a permit issued by the Dept. of Agriculture. Last I checked, the permits were $150 and good for 5 years. There is a separate permit for those who breed and sell, and those who resell. One good thing is if you pay the fee for one permit, the other is free. When I spoke to someone in the DOA office, they told me that they do not see a line between a business or hobbyist - if you sell herps, you need to have a permit(s). With that said, I doubt everyone selling a herp in PA, especially a pet they no longer want, get a permit before doing so. However, if you plan to sell them regularly, I suggest you get them.

Here is the link to the thread that discusses the permits:

If this was a one time deal, I wouldn't worry about it. The permits are more for those who are more of a business and/or vend shows in PA; however, if they wanted to enforce it to the letter of the law, then it would apply to anyone selling a herp in PA. Glad to hear he was able to rehome them.
