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.

Chironius carinata
Machete whipsnake, flawless adult specimen, perfect in every way. Sold to me as a female. Treated (internally and externally) and established in captivity for almost 2 years on the dot. Needs a large enclosure as she is very active and would make a great display animal. Readily eats rodents but really will do best on a rodent-free diet. Currently eats tilapia, frog legs, and chicks. Experienced keepers only. $185; shipping to your zip code via SRY is additional.

I'm curious as to how large she is currently and how often she is handled?

Some of us who keep them know them as "eye-ball biters". They strike directly and repeatedly at your eyeballs. They are wonderfully aggressive and will actually move swiftly toward you as they strike. They are also lightening fast and basically impossible to hold. Their bites bleed profusely. Extremely intelligent and attentive snakes for folks who can deal with them. Very large enclosures are needed. One of my favorite species.

She’s between 3-4 feet and is never handled. I am able to pick her up to move her into a tub during cage cleaning. This one is not obsessed with eyeballs.

New imports, yes.
But most do calm over time to be more reasonable animals. They are smart and quickly learn their keeper is not an enemy.
If you could actually keep any alive more than a few months you’d know that.
