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.

GTP on the Floor??!
Hi,
I have a Cyclops mt. locale GTP, and has been doing great, but yesterday i noticed it was on the ground floor of its enclosure, i'm not sure why. i just need to know if this is anything i should worry about. it is feeding well, and just shed 2 days ago. it is 8 months old. any info would be appreciated.
Thanks
-Greg

How long have you had it? What are the temps and what is the humidity level? Could you go into a little more detail about your setup and routine?

I have it in an exo terra, with the hot spot getting to 85 degrees, and temps in the lower part of the enclosure range from 75-80 degrees. i spray the tank regularly but i do leave time for it to dry out.(around 50% humidity when dry). this morning i placed the snake near its perch and it coiled around like normal, but then later on when i returned home i found it on the floor again.

Right now, I think the first thing to do would be to contact the seller, and let them know right away that you have concerns.

Yes, to me it does seem strange. I would be concerned, just as you are. Until you hear back from them, I would just provide plenty of branches and spots to wrap around, maybe some fake foliage to hide behind if you don't have any. I wouldn't stress the snake out with handling or anything of the sort at all, until you know for sure it's okay.
