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.

The Endangered Species
Just some thoughts of our future.....
It seems increasingly unavoidable that we as a whole will become an extinct group.Its like the prohibiton of the early 1900's is slowly affecting us all in this hobby / trade / buisness alike.Slowly the federal & state goverments are making us a rightwing faction all of our own. no one wants to deal with shipping for what to some is there buisness ( snakes,reptiles in general) and the other hand wants to stamp out what we do for enjoyment as part of our personell lifes REPTILES. I think its really pathetic that just because companies /organazations such as the HSUS,PETA get there ways due to speacial legislations ,Lobbiest & the fact that they can line politicians pockets and fund there campaign trail with cash in order to create state & federal puppets for the own needs.They say that what we do is of taking wild populations out of there enviroment and creating endangered species ... they dont realize that 90% of us are keeping these animals in way better condtions then in the wild they would ever be able to survive due to the decling rate of rainforrest in the world due to oil . natural gas greedy mongers for the sole turn ofthe american dollars. do they think that these animals would actually thrive in a land cluutered with bull dozers and vast burn offs of undergrowth? do they think thes animals could survive the ever increasing rate of growth how the hell does a reptile get a chance to live when being over run by industrial parks , oil explorations N heavy equipment If for once these people would look at the fact of actually caring for something they might see what we as a whole already know.. It sickened me when i saw the florida post , states and counties alike use the fact that what they pass must be made public by sending out a 2-3 line add ina public paper to anounce what will happen the next day or even that evening. if it was forthe us beingsuch a great place to live in many aspects and facsets i would say i am ahasmed to live in a place that does such things but i cant due to theres only one place i could think of living other then here Austrialia lol ... ok my rant is over i need my morning coke .
