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.

Indonesian Tree Boa
Today at my favorite pet store down town, I saw for the first time a little Indonesian Tree Boa that they had at the counter. I was able to hold him and he was just amazing, completely took my breath away. So I'm wondering if anyone here has ever worked with them before? I know I want my next snake to be an arboreal one, but I was going to go with a carpet python, cause I'm completely in love with these guys too. So what are yall's experience with these types of boas/pythons? Thanks!

I've kept Solomon Island tree boas, similar to the indos (they get a little bit bigger/girthier). They're great snakes as long as you're ok with dealing with the volume of waste they produce, and their pee is like glue.
They are personable small aboreal snakes that are easy to house and handle. My SITBs liked a water dish big enough to soak in (change it frequently, they will defecate in it). 92Fish hot spot going down to whatever (mid to upper 70s).
They tend to like frogs and lizards and geckos as food as WC, but they can be weaned onto rodents. They have a very slow metabolism to be careful not to overfeed.
