Royal Pedigrees, The Ball Python Registry, is now up and running. Sign up FREE!

Hey everyone. Here's a detailed list of all the snakes at my house. Feel free to tally them up and decide whether or not you'd like to come over and help yourself while I'm out.

I think I'll pass on this one.

I just wanted to let everyone know that Chuck Pritzel, the owner of the American Cornsnake Registry (ACR), has just launched Royal Pedigrees, the Ball Python Regristry, and ball python breeders are welcome to start signing up as breeders and start registering their snakes. I signed up yesterday and registered my ball pythons. It's definitely not perfect yet, but at this time it is totally FREE to register your animals. If it's like the ACR, it should always be free to sign up as a breeder, but I imagine that in the future there will be low fees involved for registering your animals once it is running more smoothly. Check it out at http://royalpedigrees.com/index.php .

Thanks for letting us know. I will be deleting your multiple other announcements throughout the forum on this. Only one needs to be posted.

It depends how you look at it. Since the registry features pictures of your individual snakes, it could also discourage people from stealing your snakes, since most of them have unique markings and people wouldn't want to be caught trying to sell one that looks exactly like the one you already have registered. I think that would be safer than the collection info that a lot of have in our forum signatures.

Some of these posts will be out of order as a result of me merging replies that were left on multiple other duplicate announcements of this registry into this thread.

People concerned with that sort of thievery can simply watermark their images. Next?

I posted on the other older threads, so that it would go directly to the people that had been wondering about a registry, since not everyone will see general announcements.

You could send them a PM with a link to this thread. :)

It sounds interesting, but I would think that many breeders already keep detailed logs of their animals and offspring and there is no need for a third party to manage your notes. The site doesn't allow for watermarked photos to be uploaded there, either, so I see this as a means for some people to easily steal photos as well.

Thanks for the link and info but I won't be joining.

I see where this is headed.... No thanks.
