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 imports
My question is, are import females difficult to get to breed? I know alot are hard to get started feeding. If I buy a few ch females and get them feeding really good, is there anything I would have to do with them that I wouldn't have to do with cbb females to get them to breed?

Good question. I have a pair of imports and a pair of CBB that will be breeding this season that are the same species. The imports have really been big trouble for me as far as feeding, I really think I may pass up breeding the import pair this year. I have not decided if I am going to try yet. If I do decide to breed them this will be an easier way for me to learn. The female has just started eating after being on a rediculous fast. In six months during this fast she went through she shed 4 times and ate only 2 times. The male had shed 5 times and has eaten 6 times. Sorry I am not able to fully answer your questions.

Thanks, I've read a couple of things on the imports. It seems that nobody has come right out and said either yes they have had success with them or no they aren't worth it. I would love to get a pair of het albinos from Top Shelf for my first time breeding balls, but don't have the cash I would just like to know if I would be wasting my time with imports or not.
Thanks again

Imports usually take 2 years or more to get acclimated and or breed. There are rare instances when females and males will breed before that, but it usually takes this long. CB are the best bet.
