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.

Where can I find a baby ackie?!
Can someone point me to an established breeder of Ackies (red or yellow, either is fine)? Preferably with available babies or at least incubating eggs? I can find no one with a website up aside from pro-exotics (who isn't currently breeding them)! I mostly see adults in the classifieds on websites... Why doesn't ANYONE have any babies???

Another quick question... Everywhere I look I see dimensions of enclosures that are proper for an adult pair or trio of ackies (usually 4'X2'X2'), but how big should I have for a single adult? Also, what is an appropriate home for a baby, and how long should it remain in its "baby home"?

You can put a baby in a 20 long and that will suffice for quite a while. I think the 4 x 2 x 2 size is about right for one or two. I would perhaps go larger for a trio.

Like a beardy
It is important that their cage offers them the ability to thermoregulate their body temps, very difficult in a small cage. A minimum size would be 20gal. for that reason. 100-110 under the basking light, about 85 on the cool end.

I thought they were supposed to have a hotter basking spot around 130*F? Is that wrong? It is just what I've read on other sites, so it might not be accurate... I agree with you about the thermoregulating their body temps because I raise BDs and you encounter the same problems with them when you put a baby in a smaller tank, even though they have room, it is hard to have a hot and cold side, so I see where you are coming from.

130 may be fine,
but I do not keep ours that hot. We have had our breeders going on 4yrs and they are doing well with the hotspot around 105, but we only got 1 clutch this yr. (from 1.2) so maybe a hotter basking spot would work better??
