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.

Rescue Albino Burmese
So, I got a call from a local police officer, about an R.O.C. She had already contacted F.W.C. and they couldn't pick up the burm, so they told her to call me to come get it. I'm a registered nuisance trapper here in Santa Rosa County, even thought I don't have my R.O.C. I've worked with them before. I went to get it, and she was stuck in a closet with 2 sheds, and algae growing in her water bowl. She struck at me once when I first opened the closet, but as soon as I got her out she's been nothing but a sweet heart. I just wanted to post a few pictures and inform people of the situation that a lot of people are leaving these larger species in. Hence, the strict laws here in Florida. I used to be pretty opposed to most of the laws here but they really are to protect the animal from ignorant owners. If you can't take care of a 10FT Burm, don't get one. That simple. Oh, BTW, she eats f/t like nobodies business. I've named her "Yellow Submarine", also, I'm applying for ownership and helping to pursue criminal charges against the owner. Just thought I would share this wonderful animal with you all. ENJOY!
My buddy Kyle holding her
Here she is enjoying life, finally.
Again
Got a small meal in her

I'm glad she's now with someone who will love her and take care of her. She's very lucky. People just make me sick.

yeah, some people are just sickening individuals, and it's not 100% she's staying with me at this point, it's still a bit up in the air. but i'm doing everything possible to keep her. she's a complete sweet heart, i don't know how anyone could allow such a magnificent animal to be put through this. that's why i prefer herps over most people.

I hope you do get to keep her. She deserves to be with someone who will care for her. The more I'm around people, the more I love my herps.
