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.

Kara,
That's exactly what I'm talking about <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=' '>
Neil,
I am assuming a non-cuddly one <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=' '>

Dan...Oh NO! "She" was the MOST cuddly "CORAL SNAKE" you will ever see! She was also one of the LARGEST I have come across! She measured 34" long, and about 3/4" thick!!!! Sweet, huh??....Neil

Neil.....you still got her....how much?
Also, can you tell me about the brumation and breeding habits of the eastern coral snake? I heard once that they can eat popcorn...is that true? I was hoping to get one that was trained on F/T popcorn (I hate feeding live) BTW, is it not also true that with a pair of plyers I can just YANK out her teeth to make her a venomoid so I have no worry about getting bit and dying? Huh? Huh? Can I do it? oh yeah, I plan on keeping her in the same cage as a scarlet (not king) snake.....will the GET ALONG?<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>?...............I also heard that tehy are the only "Elastic" snake in North America.......(Elapid) HA HA HA (give me a break, just woke up)
Now.....would you sell her to ME?<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>
Please not the sarcasm....Trust me I'm not THAT stupid........
Ok, to go off on another tangent here....what about the dealers that don't know ANYTHING about what they sell?<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'> At Hamburg about 2 years ago, we bought a pair of EGG-EATING snakes. When we asked the dealer what the babies eat (expecting him to say something about finch or hummingbird eggs) he told us Crickets....WHAT?<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'> They are EGG-EATING snakes....we figured, he HAS babies (fresh WC) he must be feeding them something, but I guess not.....goes to show you never can tell.......
Anyway, I enjoy talking about how dumb some people can be.......
Thanks

Sorry, buddy...first of all, I DON'T have my "hots" license!, and second, I gave it a "catch and release" guy who brought it back to Mother Nature!
As far as your questions go....for the last two months or so, I've been referring ALL these questions to Rich Zuchowski!! He LOVES answering those things!! He can go on for DAYS!! Just ASK HIM???

LOL!!
I remember at one of the early Mid-Atlantic Shows we attended there was a guy selling a bunch of corn snakes and he must have been getting the typical genetics questions I've come to expect. Obviously he couldn't reply to them, because every couple of hours he would come by my table with his notebook and read off the questions to me and write down my answers. I guess he was telling people he needed to think about it and would get back to them with an answer.

Some friends of ours whom we usually do shows with participate in a game each show where the winner is the one whom got the most interesting question at the show. At one Raleigh show, they won with the question from someone while looking at leopard geckos: "Why do they have legs?"
At another Mid-Atlantic Show, we won the prize when someone asked "How do you know if a snake is dead?"
Tongue biters, all of them............

This has nothing to do with reptiles!! But I think it is worth posting here. About 15 yrs. ago up in Glacier National Park here in Montana. There were two older couples mid 60's or older enjoying a day in the park. They were almost all the way through the park when they realized that they had not seen a Glacier yet!!! So they stopped and asked a maintance worker. When is the best time to see a Glacier?<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'> And they were told between 2am and 4am!! Because that was the coldest and also quitest part of each 24 hr period! <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=' '> <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=' '>

Hey Rich Z.....Here's one for YOU!! This was sent to me yesterday via THIS SITE!!
Neil,
I know that you do not know me, but I have posted on Richs site a few times, and I breed cornsnakes in Missouri. What I wanted to ask is something that I am almost positive about, but I want to be 100% certain. If I breed a bloodred to another morph of corn, wont all of the resulting hatchlings be het for bloodred? If not, why not? Thanks for you answer to this -- D.C.
Anybody want to field this?? I'm certain the answer's yes, but...only the Shadow knows for sure!! ....
This is just one of MANY questions I get every day! If I KNOW the answer, I answer them at once....if I don't know the answer, I refer them to someone who does! So, Rich...this Bud's for YOU! (again!<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=' '> ....

Three reasons why I won't respond with an answer here:
(1) Possibly I already responded to this person's request and he is simply looking for a second opinion,
(2) Possibly this person is one of the emails on my waiting list to respond to,
(3) This is not the place for these types of questions to be asked, nor answered.

I wonder if it would offend people if i put on my website contact page "Please do not e-mail us regarding species which we do not maintain, breed, raise etc. as we cannot provide information regarding their care." Does anyone think this could be considered rude or bad business? I only ask because yesterday I recieved several emails (again) asking about species we dont keep.

See! NOW you only have 499 left to answer!
