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.

Has anyone come across any Crotalus so far this year? If so, please list which species and where you observed the reptile, ie-- what county, or state? Thank You.

Dusky Pigmy Rattler
I found what looks like a baby (5-6 inches long) Dusky Pigmy in Glynn county, Georgia a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks gentlemen, I am trying to find out as much as I can about Crotalus sightings this year for a paper I am composing. If anyone else observes any Crotalus, I would be greatly apprecitative. I enjoy seeing the neonates at this time of year. They are so interesting, being exact miniatures of their parents.
Sounds like you, Tim, are going to have a great time out there. Happy Herping, please let me know if you see many Crotalus?

The 2 species of crotalus and
sistrurus plus the non-native crotalus has been seen in Kansas for about a month now. We have had a very strange last month and a half of climatic weather conditions. hot to very hot, cool to downright cold, drought, rain in some parts and tons of it but seeped in ground immediately. One day in the middle 90ties then next day in the 70ties. Nights in the upper 60ties low 70ties then nights in the upper 40ties. The non-native species I talk of is the atrox let go/re-introduced for what reason of a state park in central mid Kansas ( yeh! Some of you know about this ). They had that blame rattlesnake hunt/derby/event out west last weekend or the weekend before in Kansas. I have no idea how it went or how freaking successful it was but will find out soon ! The good ONLY good thing was C. viridis was allowed to be collected/brought in only and there was a how many numbers restriction put on. But this had changed from other years as to being higher as I had reported earlier and in my opinion a step backward.

Come on people. A little more input would be nice. I know a lot of you have encounters with Crotalus in the wild. Give me some details.

Hope it's not too late...
I've only observed atrox this year so far; it's been a crappy year for snake hunting for me:
Waurika, OK 1 adult
Loma Alta, TX 1 adult
Lake Arrowhead, TX 1 juvenile
Iraan, TX 1 yearling (maybe younger)
I've also seen 2 DOR's...
Hope that helps...
