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.

Pine and the effect
Does anyone know where I can find documented proof about the effects of using pine shavings . I know most ppl don't get a toxicology reports done on there snakes if they pass. Just having a friendly debate . There response is always the same well I know people that use it for years and never had a problem. Also I know it neurological so many might not noticed if there snake/reptile is effected.
Also if you know there's nothing at all wrong with using it. Would also like to know the pros of using. Plus if its ok on smaller snakes like milks and kings ...
Me personally wouldn't use.... Would just like to know pros/ cons
Thanks in advance,
Craig

Never had any problems with pine, are you referring to cedar? Cedar is known for not being good for reptiles.

Pine I have read Pine is believed by many veterinarians and veterinary pathologists to contain many of the toxic qualities as its cousin, cedar. Just wondering if any keeps ever had any ill effects from using pine shavings.
