Dear Venomland Members and Friends, Venomland is a little more than 6 years old now and by far the biggest Hot Snake community on the Planet! We want to thank all of you who made Venomland the leading Board. We are also very thankful to our Moderators and Admins for years of hard work. Now, it is time to move on. I have been thinking how to proceed and what to do with our beloved board as we reach a size, that we need to make drastic changes to secure the future of our community. As of now, Venomland is hosted by a free (well mostly free) hosting service. That was good for the first years but now we need to find a new way to run our forum. I have spend hundreds of Dollars over the years to keep Venomland up and running, and i have done so with pleasure. Now, we need your help! We need to come up with several thousand dollars for our Venomland 2.0 project, which i frankly cant pay for any longer by myself. So Venomland is asking his Friends and Members for the first time for their financial Support. Please help to keep Venomland alive, and let us move on to a new, better Portal in the Future! Every Dollar is helping us a great deal. I know, its hard times for everyone, but please spare a few Dollar for our community. If you have only 10 Dollars to spare, we are grateful, if it is more, it would be awesome. We are planning to develop a very new Venomland, with real community functions, a forum like you are already loving it and a real (online) Hot Snake Magazin. Also, there will be download areas for scientific papers, Wallpapers and more. Again folks, we can only do that if you all help. Please send me a Private Message if you want to keep Venomland alive, i will provide you with the details on how to donate Money. For now, we can accept money from creditcards via skrill (please google it, its a free service - account-details will be forwarded to you) and paypal. All the best, and for a (hopefully) nice future of our Board. Mario

| My name is Adam, and I am in South Dakota, USA. In a few months I will be moving to Germany, the Kaiserslautern area. Been keeping reptile for years now, and really love them more than other animals. I currently have a 2yr old Central Bearded Dragon(Pogona Vitticeps), a mated pair of Golden Geckos(Gekko ulikovskii), and a Tiger Salamander(Ambystoma tigrinum). I have kept the usual...leopard gecko, crested gecko, ball python, corn snake, milksnake, garter snakes from the backyard  My goal is to eventually graduate to venomous keeping. It all depends on where I eventually move to after Germany, and what the local regulations/requirements are. My next reptile will most likely be one of the following: Rainbow Boa, Green Tree Pythin, or Emerald Boa...not quite sure yet. Anyways.........I love this site and all of you take amazing pictures(maybe I will learn how too)...Thanks!  Adam | |

| Hi Adam,
welcome on board, and welcome to Germany (in advance). Rheinland-Pfalz was no bad choice at all, as this is one of the regions in Germany which has so far no regulations about keeping venomous snakes.
About half of the german federal lands do have such regulations which make it more or less difficult to keep hots at home - and others are currently working on such.
If you arrive before September, don't miss the Hamm-expo, TERRARISTIKA. And just a few weeks later, in october, the annual SnakeDay, organized by the European Snake Society, takes place at Houten, The Netherlands.
See you
Peter | |

Peter Well I will be living in the Kaiserslautern area due to being military. I don't think I will make it over until mid-october, so guess I will miss that show. One question...since I will be renting on the local economy, how open are german landlords to having reptiles in/on their property? | |

| Hi Adam,
welcome to this site. Usually, it is no problem to get permission from the landlords to keep venomous snakes here in Germany, in my experience. I was renting for many years and I told the landlords quite frankly what I was interested in, and that I keep my snakes in locked cages in separate rooms. Never had any problem. However, make sure that you have the permission in written form in your contract - otherwise you may provide a handle for immediate kickout in case of later problems with your landlord.
Regards,
Klaus | |

Klaus Yes, getting it in writting is a definite thing. Probably won't get a venemous to start, most likely the GTP or Emerald Boa. I forgot to post pics of my current animals...so here ay go: The Geckos  The man of the house  Springer Spaniel-Maverick  Was going to put some crested geckos in here, but never did...  | |
