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.

Strange Boa or Just Me
I did my usual cricket run today and walked past all the snake cages in the local pet store as I usually do. I never pay too much attention to what they have because for the most part its hypo hondurans, albino corns, veiled chameleons, normal ball pythons blah blah. Today however I walked past a tank with some boas in it, and one actually made me stop and do a double take. I am assuming they were all central american, typically coloration, head pattern, and tail pattern but these guy looked very different. Here are some pics, let me know what you guys think, Im kind of baffled by it. He is on hold for a week for me so any of you MDers tough luck. Anyway let me know if I am excited for nothing. The thing that caught my eye were those orange stripes

Looks sorta Motley-ish to me too. Hard to say. I've had a few Nics, and although some similarities are present, I never seen one with that reddish dorsal lateral stripe before.

It appears to be something left over from a Sonoran litter.
Probably cheap enough to warrant the purchase,
Go For IT !

Looks like a very nice red Central American. You usually see the nice circle back patterns with most central american babies. Possibly an import. But nice snag for sure. Especially out of a pet store.
