• In the past two days I have gotten emails asking about being requested to provide credit card info in order to register and also to make a post in the classifieds forums. PLEASE NOTE: In no instance will this site ask you for this sort of information. The only time any request for payment is made is if you choose to opt-in for a higher membership level, and that is done SOLELY through PayPal. Anything else is coming from a source other than this site. My guess is that this is coming through Google Adsense, but when I can get someone to send me a screen shot of this sort of request, I will know more.

    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

Machete whipsnake, flawless adult specimen, perfect in every way. Sold to me as a female. Treated (internally and externally) and established in captivity for almost 2 years on the dot. Needs a large enclosure as she is very active and would make a great display animal. Readily eats rodents but really will do best on a rodent-free diet. Currently eats tilapia, frog legs, and chicks. Experienced keepers only. $185; shipping to your zip code via SRY is additional.

Some of us who keep them know them as "eye-ball biters". They strike directly and repeatedly at your eyeballs. They are wonderfully aggressive and will actually move swiftly toward you as they strike. They are also lightening fast and basically impossible to hold. Their bites bleed profusely. Extremely intelligent and attentive snakes for folks who can deal with them. Very large enclosures are needed. One of my favorite species.


I'm curious as to how large she is currently and how often she is handled?

New imports, yes.
But most do calm over time to be more reasonable animals. They are smart and quickly learn their keeper is not an enemy.
If you could actually keep any alive more than a few months you’d know that.
