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.

Share your anacondas
With the ban over the last year I know many have strayed from working with the yellow anacondas or anacondas in general but I enjoy these snakes the most so far. Here are some pictures of my adults enjoying the sun.
Miny- She is gravid currently and has not eaten since the end of October.
Jumbo- My proven male, has a strong breeding response.
Tiny- Sexed as a female 3-4 times but shows all the signs of a confused male. Beautiful snake either way.
Please share your anacondas be it green, yellow or even a cross. I always look forward to seeing other people’s anacondas.
Thank you and hope you enjoy.

Few pics of 'condas I used to have.
The guy in the pic was a neighbor. It was his first interaction with a "big" snake. Even in shed, she was incredibly calm. He liked it so much that he went out and bought his first BP shortly after that.
Doing her cobra impersonation.
Young male yellow I had.
A YxG cross.
Her dinner time.

That cross is such a great looking snake, one day I will also own one. How’s the green-yellow cross when it comes to handling?

I no longer have it anymore (or any snakes at the moment). I could just never bring myself to trust her very far. The previous owner said she was aggressive, and supplied a few pics that supported it. I didn't go out of my way to get too hands-on, when I could avoid it.
It's a lot easier to move a snake around when you can pretty much count on finding it soaking in its water tub at any given time. When I decided to take her out, I'd just put the lid on the tub and take her out that way. She rarely showed much active aggression, but I made it a point to keep out of harm's way as much as I could. I got the impression that she wasn't nearly as bad as the last guy had thought, but since she was big enough to do some damage, I wasn't eager to push my luck. When I had to actually pick her up, I made it a point to stay well away from her head and set her back down if she started to seem especially interested in me. It seemed to work out well for the both of us.

I see and it’s to bad you don’t still have her but it sucks that she was as aggressive as you say. I had plans on getting a pair of them as babies but the seller backed out then the ban passed before I could find any more. I was bummed but am hoping to get a pair of greens this year some time. I have 4 yellows currently and all of them are easy to handle and don’t try to bite thankfully. I have actually used my oldest (Tiny) in an educational “vet academy” at the vet hospital I use.
