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.

Need some help with my baby!
My little colenoyx mitratus gecko, Cheech (though I'm not sure if its a male or not), has a white orb on his belly, off to the side. he has eaten and pooped within this past week, and is acting normal. I'm starting to wonder if he mated with Ozzy, my other coleonyx, when they were living in the same cage together for a month or so, and if cheech is really a gravid female. Ozzy is much bigger and developed pores, which Cheech never really developed the pores. We seperated them a month ago, and now Cheech has this spot. It feels firm to the touch, but the rest of the belly is not swollen. Any ideas? I really need help! And by the way, he does not live in sand so there isn't a good chance of it being impaction.

Wow, that sucks. Unfortunatly, reptiles aren't immune to many diseases or parasites. Do you have any pics of the bump? If you are really worried about it, a vet can do a biopsy on it. It could be nothing, it could be cancer. I suggest you not to breed this animal. Ya never know what it has or that it can be spread to its offspring. Just my opinion......

Thank you for the suggestions, but Cheech died last night. We had already taken her to the vets a few weeks ago and found out that she had roundworms and strongyloid worms. She got medicine for it, but ended up getting extremely skinny and tired. She died in our arms last night, and I'm sure that whereever she is right now, she is feeling much better. Me, on the other hand, I'm a different story.
