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.

Milksnake hatchling feeding
Hey guys!
So people keep telling me to do research about feeding, and I have! Trust me! But I'm hearing different things from others and it's quite confusing!
My Lou is a hatching albino Nelson milksnake. The Clerk at the reptile shop said she had been feeding her noisemaker crickets since the pinkies were still to large. Make sense right?? (To me, at least) but! I have not seen any videos about feeding them crickets. They keep feeding them the pinkies. Lou is probably no thicker than a pencil, should I try to feed her a pinki still? Even though it's easily at least twice as thick as her?
Thanks guys, it means a lot!

Nelson's milksnakes can eat pinkies for their first meal. There is no reason to attempt to feed it crickets. It may not even eat them. It sounds like the pet store clerk had no idea what she was talking about. Give it a pinky.

If you're worried about the pinkie being too large, you can try day old pinkies, or a frozen pinkie cut in half.

That snake is plenty big enough to eat a pink.
Also, find a new pet shop.
