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.

A no breeding contract, not a bad idea

Yes signed contracts between two people are legal binding at least where I am from. You can also go as far as having it notarized. That way if you ever do catch the person attempting to breed it down the line to can legally persue it if you so choose to.
I herd it was common in Albino boas though?

A signed contract would be nothing more than a glorified honor system. You have TSE that bilked customers out of 1000 of dollars and he probably won't be held accountable. How do you think you would enforce a no-breed contract? Besides the fact that snakes change hands often in the course of 15 years.
Once that animal leaves your facility it is out of your hands what happens to it.

I think getting them fixed would be a really good idea. It's insuring the bad genetics do not get passed along at all. The "adoption fee" for them could be a little over the vet costs so that your aren't losing out.

Also very true indeed. It would just basically act as a back up. A lot of people are also weary of signing legal binding contracts though but yes you do stand very correct. Shanell.

pet for sure! No need to kill the animal when its fully capable of eating and growing perfectly on its own!

Interesting - it wasn't so long ago that at least one of the forums here was filled with comments on how one eyed albinos should be culled. Don't get me wrong - I am all for finding PET ONLY homes, but that is not as easy as it sounds. The possibility that the animal will be bred at some point is certainly there, unless you keep it yourself.
Were you trying to sell this animal? Is that how you initially came to be contacted by that person? From several of your posts, I got the impression it was from a litter you (well not YOU) had, but then you commented on why the snake came home with you, so it seems you purchased it (hopefully not for anything near market price).

I picked up 3 the male albino, female DH, and a female Het, Im not to worried about a breeder male at this point, that can wait a year or two, maybe a male sunglow will be a little more afordibal at a later date.
I must admit at the time I new very little about this one eyed thing
