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.

RosyLess NO MORE!
I can't last a year or 3 without them...
I think I've been without for 2.5 years as of tonight.
They have a spot in my heart for sure! Without further ado...
She's gonna fix that void for me.

I think I would like to add one to my collection. They seem to be pretty easy to care for. Any opinions?

Easy to care for and generally very docile. Desert and mountain Rosys are very small, males are smaller than females. The Coastal ones are the biggest. They are slow moving and usually a very good beginner species.
Some can be perpetually hungry, which can make them not fun to deal with, feeding bites from a Rosy are pretty painful. Though usually that can be cured by adjusting your feeding schedule.
Babies can take awhile to get feeding and as a species, they tend to prefer live. They can be difficult to impossible to get switched to F/T, so if that's a requirement, make sure to get one that is already solidly eating it.
Males especially and sometimes females, typically fast off and on a few months out of the year, once they are adults. I find my Rosy boas do best, starting their second winter, if they are brumated for a couple months in the winter. I typically go from Nov to the beginning of Jan.
Need higher temps and a bit less humidity than corns do. But I keep small water bowls in with mine all the time, some care sheets tell you not to but I'm in a low humidity area and have never had a problem with that. Though I've heard some Rosys drink excessively after eating and that can cause them to regurge. So you'd want to keep an eye on that and if it's a problem, remove the water bowl for a day or two after feeding.

Thank you for all the info. I'm definitely a FT type of snake owner. If I saw a feeder do something cute, then I'd associate a name with it, and it would be a no go. Before you knew it, I'd be overrun with former feeders that I rescued. Then I'd need an intervention. Lol.
