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.

Mentor
I really want to get into keeping venomous. I have read 2 book pertaining to the care and maintenance of venomous snakes but I feel a mentor would help me even further understanding some of the techniques. So what's the best way to find a mentor or even better does anyone know someone who keeps venomous snakes in Houston TX?
Thanks in advance,
Koshy George

Try finding a person with a venomous collection and assist that person with cleaning cages and pick his or her brain for info. Even a zoo or a snake park would do just nicely.

That's the plan. I already tried the zoo they aren't aren't accepting volunteers at this moment and most zoos do not allow volunteers to work with venomous snakes. It's a liability issue.

I will have a table at the ETHS Expo in two weeks.
Introduce yourself and I'll intro you to some local hot keepers that may be able to assist you. Friday night icebreaker is the best time for this. Just ask for me, most people there know me. I usually have a frozen margarita in my hand that night! LOL

Quick question, I am not a member yet, can I become a member on Friday? Or do I have to mail the application in with my check? And what time is the ice breaker on Friday?
Thanks again Mr. Cole

I believe the ice breaker begins at 7pm and you can become a member at that time.
