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.

Inquiry on gold reptilians?
So I noticed this site advertised on the internet and decided to check them out. I am not going planning on, or ever going to do business with these people. I found it funny more than anything. I am dumbfounded by the care requirements for these animals and potential sizes. Anyone else know these guys?
here is a link to the animal section.

WOW, I just checked their site out and just shook my head. I love how everything eats feeder mice the size of their head or smaller. Why the Granite gets bigger (by allot) than the normal burm gets me. Everything is kept at 78 degrees.lol

everything should be kept in a 55 gallon screen cage and apparently sand boas need branches to climb on.

Wow! Check out there customer comments page. It looks like GR was the buyer not the seller and it looks like ebay feedback more than animal sales. They also have a D.O.A. shipment notice on their homepage. Thats crazy. It must be common.

That's just sad. Now we know where Chuckie Schuck opened his facility. When you have more misspelled words on your website than words spelled correctly it's time to hang it up.

If they've been in "business" since 1999, (if you count business as selling feeder mice to a guy after selling him one snake) then at least one of their many employees should be able to proofread the website. I've never seen so many spelling errors on what is supposed to be a professional site. You can't expect to be taken seriously with writing like that. Sorry, it's just one of my pet peeves...
Also, with regards to the caresheet info, this has shown up on their page.

That wasnt originaly there. A friend of mine e-mailed them and told them the care info was grossly inacurate.

I just started with the frogs and geckos but if you do a google image search every picture was taken from another site. Most came up on the first page of the search.
