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.

Hello from Iowa
New snake owner here. I'm looking for a water snake. Nerodia, any variety.
What are the chances of finding a water snake at a reptile convention? Upcoming conventions in Des Moines and Omaha.
Or will I have to order from a website and pay for shipping?
Thanks

Many Nerodia offered for sale are WC, which would not be a good choice especially for a first snake. As for expos, the chances of finding the snake you're looking for, healthy and CB, and from a seller that a person might reasonably do business with (vet them first, before the expo!) all add up to very low odds.
There's a recent ad for CB and locale-specific (the latter of which might not matter to you, but hopefully someday it will) Nerodia direct from the guy who bred them (just hit 'search' up above and enter 'Nerodia'). That's a good choice, and paying for shipping is a small price to pay for a healthy animal from someone who knows how to keep them.
