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.

Natural substrate
I have a bredli carpet python. I was doing research on them and found they are from a drier Australian climate than other carpets. I am all about natural setups and enclosures I was thinking of using a mixture of predominately crushed almond, coconut husk, and forest bark. Any comments or concerns on this substrate? I will not be feeding him in this tank but have tub for feeding purposes.

Koshy, should have just PM'ed me buddy! That substrate would be fine, the only substrate you want to completely avoid is sand which I'm sure you know is a no-no. How's things? How's that bredli doing?

It didn't even cross my mind. Next time I'll be coming to you bud. He's growing fast. Got a new cage for him, setting it up right now. I'll post some pics as soon as I get everything set up. How you been man? When you going to post some pics of your collection?

No prob man! I've been good just busy as all hell lately. What happened to the custom cage that you were working on?
I've had tons of people ask me about wanting/posting pics of my collection and I've actually just started initiating the plans of my website again. I had started it last year but got wrapped up in other things so I put it on hold. Finally, I'm starting everything up again and my site should be done within the next couple weeks. I'll have my collection, available animals, my facility (snake room), info about myself etc. It's going to be great! I'm excited to finally get this going again! I'll be sending the link to everyone once it's done!

Good to hear bud, and good luck with the website can't wait to see it.
The custom built is only a 20 long and the lil guy s about to out grow so I ordered a custom cage from Constrictors NW. The new cage is 48 x 30 x 20. I am working on the heating and UVB lighting right now. Got the plants and substrate ready to go. Hopefully before I go on vacation I can move my snake into the new tank.
I am also considering buying a new snake, amazon tree boa. You have any?

I'd take a look at newspaper and forget about trying to replicate nature! Good luck!

Not visually appealing enough.
