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.

When I find a person who is honest and the animals involved are better than described, I feel I should share my experience with everyone.
I had my adult breeder corns for trade and he contacted me offering 2.2 Bearded Dragon babies. I checked him out on the Fauna BOI and I saw a post about D269 that contained a negative experience (from pacrat) that seemed too personal to be acurate. So, after reading the post, I decided that there was more than one side to the story and contacted Dale. We emailed back and forth for a week and came to an arrangement whereas he would get the 4 remaining corns and he would ship me 2.2 Beardeds and a baby female burm. He even waited for me to get back from vacation to complete the deal. The animals arrived today and are better than expected. The dragons are healthy and fat. The burm is also outwardly healthy and tame! Nice and solid. These animals have been taken care of expertly.
The only problem (my fault) we had was that while I was packaging my corns to ship to him, I left the bags on top of the box for about 1/2 hour while I got ready for work. Apparently the female Amel Corn escaped from the bag and I didn't notice. My wife saw it this morning and screamed that a orange snake was loose. I contacted Dale and he said the female bag was emptywhen it arrived. I offered to ship the female when she is caught or send $100 for the value of the Amel if she isn't caught by the 15th (payday). He said he would rather have the female (I would too). But if she isn't caught by the 15th I am sending him the $100. If I catch her after that, he can have first bids on her. I'm sure he will have some other trade offers that will tickle my fancy.
His part of the trade was honest and a little under rated as far as the description of the animals went. For all out there to see and read... Dale Atkins (D269) is an honest person who take care of the animals the he is offering for sale/ or trade. His emails are answered within a few hours and the animals were packaged nicely to prevent any harm coming to the animals in transit.
So I have found another good herper to deal with.

Just caught the escaped Amel Corn.
This will make him as happy as I was at catching her.
She will be shipoped on Monday or Tuesday depending on the temps.
I hope he will be as happy with her as I was.
