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.

Is there something that states "you must" put live harmless reptile on the outside of the box. I have recieved packages from large companies and the only thing on the box was red arrows pointing up along with parishables in red stamped on the box between the arrows.

Yes Thats the lacey act. They say you must name the Latin and common name of the species.

Yup, it's called the Federal Lacey Act.
Their is some argument about what is specifically legally required to put on the package; but consensus says to be safe and cover your butt, include the quantity, common name and scientific name of each species in the shipment. I put an e-mail into the USFW on the 17th to get it spelled out (and written proof that's what I was told to cover myself), but I have yet to get a response.

The Lacey Act states that live animal shipments must be accurately labeled...the IATA Live Animal Regulations state the specifics, including that the package must be labeled as containing a LIVE ANIMAL, list the common & scientific name of each species contained, and the number of each.
