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.

I wonder how long before we hear what is being announced today. Still keeping fingers crossed they leave it as is and don't add anymore species.

I know I kept a link, looking for it now.
I feel for my friends ... this decision is crap.

USARK will be amending its complaint first thing Monday morning and then filing an injunction so that FWS can't enforce the new regulation until after the case has concluded. If the judge approves the injunction then it would be at least a year, most likely longer as the federal court system moves slowly, before the rule would take effect (assuming USARK loses the court battle).

I've been urging people to get their hands on a pair of any of the banned species so that they can keep the animals circulating in the pet trade of their state. It won't make you money and you'll actually likely have problems getting rid of offspring, but you may make some new anaconda/retic lover's day by having them available even if only occasionally.

That would be a good thing.

I just added a female retic this week and as soon as I can get the logistical issues worked out for QT I'm getting a male.

This sucks. My local reptile group is laughing/celebrating and shitting on anyone who is less than thrilled with the ban, or who thinks other reptiles will come next. Super depressing to see reptile people attacking the hobby like that. I hope that my area isn't indicative of the average herp keepers attitude towards these legislative/exectuive acts...
