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.

DFW Meeting to be held in response to House Bill 1309 regulating reptiles in Texas.
Please send this to other Texas herper to help get the word out.
I will be holding a meeting in response to House Bill 1309 regulating non-native venomous reptiles and constrictors within Texas. This is a meeting for DFW herpers to attend (or anyone willing to make the drive). The primary focus of the meeting is for area herpers to meet together to discuss the issue at hand and come up with a common direction we as a group can take on this proposal.
The meeting will take place at my house and will start at 6:30 pm and should last for about 1-2 hours. I am located in Northern Fort Worth/Keller area. Please e-mail me at IntenseHerpetoculture@hotmail.com for my address and directions.
I am sure several of us (I know I will) will be attending the meeting in Austin on Tuesday, we can plan a possible car pool at this time as well.
Regards,
Justyn

AAHHHAAHHAAA Keith, that's your best gag yet (pun intended). Too bad it's buried down here.
Speaking of that, I just saw the video of Tim Cole speaking at that meeting, on KS. Go get em, Tim. Now that he's a star on KS, he'll probably be too cool to hang out here anymore.

The lights were to low......The guy standing next to me smelled like a "Old Dirty Mop".....and It sounded like they were in a different room than me.....I waited for days to speak......I think Tim was Filabusting.......Hell... I could barely hear him.....I'm starting to think I got Hornswaggled......

Hey Jim,
I don't know how Tim Cole could get any cooler than he already is?
He practically pees ice cubes as it is!
In all seriousness,
We here in Colorado are wishing all the herpers of Texas the best outcome on this restrictive legislation. I hope that Texans are able to maintain their rights as reptile keepers. A LOT of people enjoy the annual pilgramage to the Mecca of Texas as tourists of Herpetological fauna. The freedoms enjoyed by Texans make your state quite an attraction to MANY people.
Fight for your rights.
If Texas falls, it will have serious consequences for a LOT of other states.
Best wishes guys.
Harlin Wall - WALL TO WALL REPTILES!
ps. Keith, you might try using a little baby oil to get the duct tape off....but don't tell anyone I told you.....what would they do if someone released a Wild Collected Northrop at one of those meetings?!?!? Far worse than other type of possibly soon-to-be restricted reptiles! LOL
Best Wishes Everyone!
