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.

Male turtles are such horny buggers! 3 out of the 4 of my box turtles came out of hibernation yesterday.

I have questions about the law. I'm in pa have a hard time understand what laws mean what. If I had some could I not sell them also, I don't understand as long as they were not wild caught. Sorry for my ignorance, I'm more of a snake guy & know little besides how to care for little turtles.

I agree the laws are sometimes not very clear. I found this out on the web:
There is actually a NC "Turtle Law" and it is SB 825 from 2003. It states that you cannot have more than 4 turtles from the families of Emydidae and Trionychidae. It also states that it is prohibited for "commercial taking" however it defines commercial taking as: "the taking, possession, collection, transportation, purchase or sale of five or more individual turtles or terrapins from either of the two families of reptiles described in this section." So basically you can only have 4 turtles (by my interpritation its 4 per person) from the two families and so as long as you are not over that then you are good. The SB 825 "Turtle Law" can be found by googling it or on the NC Wildlife site. Now the EBT is a part of that list however it is no longer on the protected species of NC list as of the November 08 list.

I'm going to have to read up more on my locations laws. I personally like the snakes but have 2 small small box turtles I help my son with. Shane keep me posted on how yours are doing & if you have any advise or suggestions I'm always up to learn something new. I checked out your snakes on your website, beautiful collection you have.

Thank you. I hope your laws are easier to find. But with a few searches, you should find something. I too am a snake guy, but I really dig my box turtles. How long have you had the two you have?
