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.

Is this dangerous?
Saw someone looking to sell/trade some dragons...
Look at the babies with the larger ones... That big one on top could easily eat one of the babies. Right...? I just saw this and was little shocked...

I would guess they just put them together for the photo. Beardies are extremely docile, and as adults, they tend to prefer greens anyway. I had one that shared a large enclosure with a leopard gecko for over 10 years. The leo often rode around on the beardie's back.
It's a good thing beardies do well together, as they lay around 30 eggs per clutch. That would be a lot of enclosures!

Yes, I can see your concern, there will be some beardies who would grab that baby up in an instant, no matter how docile a pet it is, and swallow it in a few seconds. Even a sub - adult can easily eat a baby. We might like to think of them as being kind to their own, but they have no maternal/ paternal instinct but would view smaller creatures as fair game for a snack. I've seen it happen at a reptile show before, and more than once.

If I dropped a baby bearded dragon in my one dragons enclosure, I know for a fact she would go from calm and docile, and in 1 second turn into a ferocious beast swallowing that baby whole.
I saw it and just wanted to know that this was wrong... just like I expected.

I would never put babies next to adults like this. I don't care how docile the adult is, it is just instict. They see the babies as food, not babies. I've seen it happen before. So yes, I would say that is dangerous.
