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.

Allergic to feeders?
SO I'm allergic to rats and mice, which sucks because I have to end up getting all my feeders from someone else. Allegra helps a little, but not enough. I gave up breeding rats a while back because it was just too bad on my allergies. Now that I'm starting up snakes again I wanted to know if anyone else has this problem? Any ideas how to make it manageable? Or have you found a different kind of feeder to work with? I mainly keep ball pythons.

How are you with birds? Have you considered trying day old chicks, or quail as feeders?
Another option is to try nude mice or rats - hairless therefore less allergenic (maybe...)

I'm even worse with birds, allegra doesnt help me at all and it continues to effect me for a day or more if i'm around them. Hairless doesnt make a difference

Man that sucks. Not too much you can do unless there is a good medicine that will stop it. We breed rats but my wife takes care of them and i take care of snakes. The pine bedding that we use mess with my allergies pretty ruff but doesnt carry onto the next day. Im fine just going in there just cant be in there on cleaning day. Buy bulk its cheaper in the long run if you cant stomp this allergy you have. Goodluck.
