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.

Kenyan Sand Boa activity level?
I'm hearing a lot of "oh you'll just about never see him", but also "usually under the substrate", and even "out in the open a lot". There doesn't seem to be a solid answer so I guess I'll ask here.
How often does one see their KSB out in the tank? Is like you'll only see them at a certain time of day? Will I see it out and exploring every few days? Or will I catch a glimpse of him once a week?
I know the boards aren't very active in these parts so any answers are appreciated! Thank you!

My girl was shy when I first got her, but with a little handling she equates me with feeding and has turned into a monster always peeking or roaming in hopes I'll give her a fuzzy(or move in on tank mates fuzzy)... tank mate is also starting to follow suit as she's getting acclimated. Both are chill being handled. Male in separate tank is still skittish but new and is eating better so will start to handle and hopefully he'll follow suit. Just my experience but hope that helps. Females in 20l male 10...2 inches of walnut shell, cave hide, fake suction cup plants along wall... water dish other side by plants. Have fun!

I like the description you gave of your snakes' behavior, Mark, but please don't ever, ever feed snakes in the same enclosure. Not ever, not for any reason. The snakes will attempt to consume each other, and maybe not while you're watching. Snakes, and boas in particular, are very food driven, and are not at all intelligent, and will take a cage mate that smells a bit like a rodent to be a rodent.
Separate snakes for feeding, and keep them separate for at least 24 hours after.
