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.

Origin of the Coral Bearded Dragon
I know they are from WWD, but how did she get that glowing color? Is it from trans, high reds/oranges, or citrus? Also what do y'all think is the most popular dragon morph; Citrus, oranges ,reds, trans, dunner, hypotrans, a mix or these, etc.?

They asked what the most popular dragon morph is, and I'm pointing out that those mentioned are not morphs, they are colors.
Plus why do you want new reptile owners to be confused and be calling colors morphs when they aren't? I sure don't want to have new owners uneducated.
So that's MY point.

What's the point of arguing? He was asking favorite morph. So what if he listed like 2 selective bred traits. Just asking what people like the best. How would you have put it?

color quality
Hey Owen, I'm not sure who was the first to name their dragon color coral, but I do remember way back over 10yrs ago Kevin Dunn came out with an extremely bright red line and it was called coral. Not sure if he developed it himself or started out buy buying the originals elsewhere. As far as how to make very colorful dragons, you have to pair reds with reds if you want reds. Not red to yellow or you end up with less red. after each batch is hatched you hold back 5 of the most colorful and weed them out as they grow and hold a few back each generation. You need to have multiple bloodlines and not in breed for the best success.
I started out with sandfires about 15yrs ago, added chris allen, kevin dunn, georgia beardies etc, and made my own colors a bit at a time. Nowadays it's easier to find bright dragons and start out colorful.
I find that a red translucent dragon is a more intense red usually because the skin is translucent and has a darker undertone. While the normals have a lot of white markings and the skin is a lighter shade underneath. Here is 2 pics as an example. 1st one is a red sandfire italian leatherback, while the 2nd one is a translucent it.leatherback. And if these were hypo, they would lose most or all dark pigments. Hope that helps! =)

It does Gina, Thanks! So this brings me to another question, in "color Dominance"... for example in human hair color brown is dominant, is one color more dominant than others in dragons? Like a white bred to a vibrant red or orange, and the babies where hypotrans for example does the white dominate, does it dilute the red, or does the white act like a blank canvas for the red or orange color to take over? Purples... do you have to have a purple gene (if there is one), or is it just a full trans to full trans pairing that produces it? And whites, to me the seem to be a "glorified" normal phase dragon. Sure there are those nice whites that have lavender markings and what not, but what is trying to be achieved, where can they take us in future dragon genetics? And I have notice that yellows don't really mix well with oranges or reds, the resulting color always seems..."normal".
