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.

western blackneck help
In the last few months, now that my garter is a little bigger, I'm realizing that my checkered is actually a western blackneck . Converting it to pinkies is an uphill struggle. Scenting with my pacific treefrog does not illicit any interest. I thought I was over the hump when I got it to take a pinky that I placed in its bowl with a goldfish, but now it seems resolved to take the fish and leave the pinky or drop the pinky after it grabs it. Does anyone know of anything I could use to scent the pinky with that a western blackneck would find irresistible? If anyone has worked with eastern blacknecks, I'd also be interested in hearing about your experiences.

Success! I took an appropriately sized frozen thawed pinkie, and made it a little hat out of a goldfish head, put it in with him, and when I checked back five minutes later there was no pinkie and a little lump in the snake. Hopefully, I'll be able to gradually cut down on the amount of goldfish associated with the pinkie.

Well that is good news, usually after they get tricked into taking a pinkie a time or three they don't need much if any scenting. Keep us posted..Randy
