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.

brumation??
Hello everyone. I think my bearded dragon is going into brumation. She has been just staying in the same spot and just stares. I tried putting a couple crickets in her cage and she didn't even look at them. Its like she's a zombie. She hasn't been sleeping during the day but looks tired. Does this sound like brumation? I have a uvb light, a white bulb heat lamp, and a red bulb heat lamp on 12 hours a day but a few minutes ago I decided to turn off the white heat lamp and the uvb light but left the red on for a little heat. It made it darker in there so if she wants to sleep she can. Is this the right thing to do?

Leave the lights on like you normally would (in the winter I do 10-11 hrs) and soak her in warm water twice a week for 20 min. to keep her hydrated.
As long as she was acting normal before she got sleepy, it is most likely brumation.
