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.

Scaleless Rat Snake from show
I went to a reptile show today with the mindset that if I found something unusual that I wanted as a pet (not a breeding project I have enough of those) that I would pick one up. Well I just fell in love with this tiny baby scaleless rat snake. I've always wanted one. Such a cute worm! The color on this guy is fascinating to me. I love that he has a few scales on his head, he also has all his belly scales and a line of tiny scales down his back.
His name is Wrenfield.

Thank you! I love that he has some scales particularly the ones on his head. Not sure if his head is truly this color or if you can just see through the skin.

I bought my first scaleless Texas rat snake last year and I agree, they are really fun critters! I now have a male and female pair, and although I primarily have them for public education, I do hope that they'll breed in the future. Great little snake you've got there!

I've never seen one of these in person, and I'm curious what they feel like?
And do you have to be extra careful when handling?

Thanks all! I'm very excited!
Their skin is almost as tough as scales and you really don't have to be any more careful with them (full grown specimens have been collected out of the wild). They are super soft...but they...uh...okay I'm just going to say it: they sort of feel like a penis. In fact the guy who sold him to me made this hilarious face when he picked it up to hand it to me to hold and he said he doesn't like touching them for that reason.

Heehee. They are a bit unsettling to hold.
