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.

silkbacks
Can a female silkback breed? I have heard that female silks can be killed or hurt badly by bites during the mating process. Please inform me on this subject?

Of course you can breed a female silkback! If you have a violet breeding male, it's probly not the best idea. I mean the kind of male that breeds and rips spikes off of female beardies nape. But other calmer males, isnt a problem.

So you have bred a female silkie Tom?
Time will tell how long silkbacks are around. Personally, I am not a fan and will not breed them.

I produced a silkback, sold it to a customer from a local reptile show. He bred her to a red leather. So the answer is, No. I have bred a male silkback to another female dragon. but havent bred a female silkie. I am more about producing them, than breeding them.

I was asked why I had a distaste for silkies. First, I think they look like little dehydrated aliens. Second, I use enough KY around here that I dont have enough to spare to rub down a freakin reptile with it.
Hope that explains it.

I would be apprehensive to breed a female silky only because I have "heard" that their skin is very fragile. And with having seen how the act of breeding, weather you have a violent male or not, can cause damage to the skin on a normal dragons nape I could only imagine the possible damage a female silk could incur.
Now with that said, though I am not a fan of the Silkback, its possibilities are interesting to me. As the silkback is a superform of a leatherback, meaning if you bred a silkback to any dragon you would get 100% leathers. I wonder if a silkback to silkback pairing has ever been attempted? I would be interested to see what came out of that.
