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.

Is it just supposition that Rance is behind the release of the ball pythons or is there proof that he is involved?

We did the educational event in response to the article "Pythons Plague Valdosta Neighborhood" which understandably had the residents worried. Residents were spreading poisons such as mothballs out to deter snakes, being taken advantage of by local pest control companies, were killing harmless native species, were terrified to go outside, just a bad situation for everyone. This was following a sting operation where a resident was keeping illegal snakes. The name hasn't formally been released so I am not at liberty to say who it was. But yes, at least 20 hatchling ball pythons were captured throughout the neighborhood. As I have been saying on other websites, do not come to this neighborhood trying to find snakes! Doing so would undermine the relationship myself and other responsible reptile enthusiasts have cultivated with the neighborhood and impede the investigation, as each captured animal may be used as an individual animal cruelty charge.

That would put it more on deductive reasoning than supposition.

I want to personally thank you for your efforts. I used to live in that area and know all too well the fear and superstition the people can be.

It's very nerve wrecking when you reside in the same city with a guy like him. It's even more frustrating when you as a snake owner get asked if I know him or had anything to do with the Valdosta snake incident. I go to VSU.

Does anyone have a connection with Repticon folks to confirm if Ashtyn is still allowed to vend? I’m definitely cancelling my show reservations if this is the case.
