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.

Aggressive Beardie
Anyone have problems with beardie being aggressive? I have a six month that I don't have a lot of time to try and tame and he/she refuses to let me pick it up. If I corner it it usually flares it's beard and opens it mouth. It even snapped at me last night. Any advice? I think I am going to sell it if things don't get much better.

I'd be willing to bet you have a male... They all seem to go through a defiant juvenile phase. They do grow out of it. Just give it some time! Keep feeding him lots, handle him frequently, and don't worry about it too much.

I hope so, I get really frustrated and it don't feel good to be bitten. I can kinda understand that he is just defending himself since my hand is just as big as he is.

Another idea is before you go to pick him up talk softly to him. As soon as you have a hold of him keep talking to him that way. It should comfort him and let him know that you aren't going to hurt him. That and try to handle him as much as possible.
Good luck!

I also have an agressive male. When he was younger he was quite the biter. He is now 7 mos. old and doesn't seem to want to bite any more but I still wear gloves when I handle him. Just keep holding on to him if he calms down and rub his little back, so he will get the idea. You can contact me if you decide to get rid of him.
