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.

Thinking of getting some Gilas in a few months>>>>>>>>>>>
When I finally decide to purchase Gila Monsters, is there a way I could protect myself from buying possible WC animals? I mean you hear of these reptile stings sometimes where the buyer is caught buying some animal(s), and the law is right there and they get busted. The reason I ask is that I've seen ads on K.S.
and it looks to easy to buy them. I know the only paperwork I would need (if it were necessary) is local venomous permits. Inwhich the city I live in doesn't have any restrictions.
Is there any other things I can do to protect myself?
Thanks,

Yes there is. Research as much as you can about the person(s) you're buying from. Only buy from long established breeders such as Dr. Seward who's web address you can find listed at the other popular reptile website. Gilas are an investment that requires getting the best animals you can at the outset for success down the road. Good luck with your project.

I agree with... Tom... can't go wrong purchasing from some of the more established and well known breeders, with Seward being at the top of a fairly short list.
He's pricier than others, but you really do get what you paid for and you never have to worry about Arizona fish and game wandering by the house because they were tracking a subcutaneous radio transmitter.
Some of the best information avaliable on their natural history, captive husbandry and general care avaliable too.
