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.

do so. i mean i have seen some dark animals that all seemed to be just ugly individuals to me-but this one is like none other i have seen. i have email pics to several very reputable sources who all claim that i have something unusual and worth purchase. we will see. if this is just a darker colored specimen-when the babies come out they will be drab in coloration. but if the babies come out looking like the mothers then it will be a different story. post your pics though, i am interested

Dang, now I wish I still had my big ol' redfoot. Those scale patterns don't seem to match up exactly. I'm still not positive he's not some sort of hybrid. He's still really cool though and when you get babies from his line I'd be interested.

im positive he is not a hybrid-but if the thought was to cross my mind-which it did before purchase-what would he be a hybrid between? really, the only animal that a redfoot could cross with and still maintain the shell shape, head shape, and plastron shape would maybe be a yellowfoot-but even then there would be major differences. we will see though, his babies will be cool regardless of how they come out. all i can say is that if they come out looking regular ill start to get excited. if this shell/skin color is just a locale thing then the traits would be visibly passed down to the babies. who knows-we will in about 8 months or so once the babies hatch out-that is if they breed. he is definately something unusual.

there is no flash! not even in the first pics. it was on auto-flash but being outside it was not sparking-on the second go around i turned the flash completely off. ill go get him, take him inside, and shoot a pic of his head. give me 5 mins.

Whatever he is, he's still pretty neat and I'd like to know what his babies look like when they start hatching.
