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.

Getting best color from Dragon with lights
I recently got a bearded dragon and the guy i bought him from showed me several pictures of him basking and he had some good colors to him. Now i know it could have been different pictures but considering the one toe nip he has was in every picture makes me feel better that it was the same dragon. He was yellow/Orange with sidebars. I have had him a week and he is just dull. He has all the appropriate lights and temps and in a 40 gallon breeder. Could it be he's just stressed from a new environment? Any help is appreciated.

Hi. To me it looks like he sended you the wrong dragon. Yes they dull down if they are stressed out but not like that. You should still be able to see some yellow on him.

I actually picked the dragon up. I pointed it out at pick up and he said he will brighten up once he warms up and he wasn't that dark at first. He showed me several pictures showing the color. He did lighten up some the first night and started seeing a little color. But now nothing. Just looks normal. He has text me to check up on him and see if he's colored up any. He did mention that he was in a tank and could only see out the front. So he had more security there. Mine is open all around and smaller tank. Idk. Just thought I'd ask. He offered for me to come to his house to pick him up and see his other dragons. Here's another pic that's supposed to be him before I got him.

If you have a Facebook there is a group called bearded dragons lovers worldwide. I'm sure people there will know.

Oh. Well If he did ship him I would assume he us stressed out. But if you picked him up he should bot be stressed. Even if it was a little cold

That's what I was thinking too. Should've went with my gut and passed on him. He's a great pet just want something with some color.

I got him Sat night. I did give him a bath and he wasn't as dark as that picture posted but still never shown signs of yellow or orange. Figured a warm bath would brighten him up. Nothing.
