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.

Breeding question...?
This might be an obvious question...
But, do female leo's ovulate like snakes do, when they are going to produce eggs? I wouldnt expect the shed, because of how often they can lay eggs, but do they ovulate, and look nice and fat like boas, and balls and whatnot?
Xavier, I think the male might be already working the 2 girls... The lighter colored, faded girl is about 3x wider now than when I got them...

They typically have follices which are vissable thru thier stomachs when they are mature and ready to breed. They don't have a pre egg laying shed like snakes yet do have a noticable girth increase when ovulating. I have no suprise about him already mating with them, they where plenty ready been a few months since they laid thier last eggs and he was of size as well.
Best of luck

Thanks, the girls tolerate handling too, so today when I move them into their more perminant tanks, I can check for follicles.
I'm setting the 2 girls up together in a 32qt tub, the male in his own 32qt tub, and the little girl in a shoebox tub. I might look around at the next reptile show, and add a male with some blizzard blood to him, So the little girl, and 1 of the 2 big girls you sent me will be poppin out blizzards.

We'll if they have bred already and the female had follicles when I sent them (which is very possible) they might ver well have eggs now. Good luck, remember that blizzard is possible het albino. I'd actually recommand you breed her to the hybino if you get go out and purchase a male blazing, if she is het albino and you breed her to an albino 1/2 the babies will be albinos and all will be het blizzard....

Blazing blizzard is just an albino blizzard? I'm still not up to date on all my leo genetics, and morphs and such...

Thats right, so if you produce babies from the hybino male bred to the double hets you would get 50% albino 50% normals and 50% of those would be hets for blizzard but you wouldn't know which ones are het for blizzard.
