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.

What's that old PETA slogan?
"PetCo. Where pets go. To DIE!"

Garret, please do not derail the thread again. It was hard enough to get it back on track the first time.

Went to her website and read this:
"Our breeding projects are temporarily on hold for this season. We are currently undergoing testing on our animals to rule out the possibility of IBD exposure to our collection. We will update once we start getting tests back! Thank you!"
While it didn't seem she did most (or much) of her selling through that site, it is still at least one tiny good step that she's actually got IBD testing mentioned on the front page. Sucks that she had to be pushed this far to get it there, but I do appreciate the fact that it is there now.

It's a farce she is using just to make it look like she cares.
You cannot rule out IBD via testing if there was a confirmed case already in the collection. I do not know how many times I have to say that.
The tests available can currently confirm IBD, but not rule it out. The test cannot pinpoint the virus when it is inactive.

Once it was brought here her website ads were still active, she posted "Temporarily on hold, more information to come, please check back later!" on her website.
Only after AddictedToBoa's post above did she actually change the site.
She's NOT being responsible on her own accord, believe me.

THANK YOU!!!
This is another reason why being exposed to her animals is such a crippling thing. Even if my animals test negative, they are not safe. They may be asymptomatic and not showing inclusions in tests. I will have to keep testing for years.
And so should Ashley. If ALL snakes in her house and who have been exposed to hers actually test negative which I highly doubt.

Every snake at her place must be assumed positive for IBD regardless of the outcomes of the path reports. Those assays only test for the presence of inclusions (in other words, the extent of the disease) and not for the presence of the etiological agent itself.
That is, until we develop a method to test for IBD-specific antigens...
