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.

Yellow Saharan Uro Help
Just wondering if anyone might be able to offer any advice on getting a pair of Yellow Saharan Uros to eat greens. Got them 2 or 3 weeks ago. Went and looked over the markers and I'm about 90% sure they're a male/female pair. And to the best of my knowledge they've always been housed together. I've got a crushed up seed mix of lentils/split peas/ millet that I keep in a bowl with them, and they'll eat it daily. The issue I'm having is that I can't get them to touch greens. I've tried different kinds of greens, I've tried offering at different times in the day, tried leaving two separate bowls for feeding, Tried leaving greens in over night. Tried taking out the seeds for a few days and just not having any luck with them. Like I said, not so much worried that they're going to starve because they're definitely eating the seeds when offered, but I'm worried about them getting dehydrated. They have multiple basking spots, multiple hides both on the hot and cool end. I read through Deer Fern Farm's care sheet and they have a small Rubbermaid container with a tube coming out to simulate a "burrow". Setup is 2x4. We had issues with the cats staring in at them a little two much, so I've hung a towel over the front to give them privacy. Greatly appreciate any tips anyone can offer.
