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.

backgrounds???
We are just about to finish our wooden Dragon condos (pics will soon be available!) but we sill need to decorate the insides. How about some interior design tips? What kind of background did you use to make it look more realistic? How did you make a hammock inside for them to rest in?? What brand/size of hide rock did you use for adult sized dragons? (Do they need one?) Our dragons each have very distinctive personalities and we want to make each of them the "perfect" home!

Wow, you re really putting a lot into your dragons, that is awesome. I use paper towels for substrate and the closest thing they have to a natural looking cage is one tree for them to climb on and a rock bowl for food. There water bowl is just a ziplock sandwich bowl. Sorry, I am of no help.

My dragons cages are going to look pretty lame compaired to yours, Tigres. Mine have a rock, grapevine, food dish and thats about it. When I first got into beardies I did go all out on the setup but as time passed the "extras" died away. It's now setup more for ease of cleaning.

Well, our cages are set up for breeding... cell-sorb for a substrate, basking rock to get comfy and a food dish for yummies. Other than that, there's just plenty of room to run around and well... you know.
I say decorate it however you think it looks nice. Use your imagination and offer plenty of different options - letting your dragon decide what they like the most. (then just remove the stuff they tend to ignore!)
But for the interior of the cage, I strongly suggest that you stay away from any greenery. Sadly, dragons are a bit quick with the appetite and yet slow with the thought process. You wouldn't want one of them to take a nice big bite of a plastic leaf and swallow it. That would be a VERY expensive vet visit. :-(

We bought large chunks of sandstone for them to bask on top of. Two of them enjoy trees and perches and the third loves his hammock. We are going to put sand as a substrate and have a water bowl to play in (yes, 2 out of the 3 play in the water!), and a food dish for their salads. Two of them love their hide rocks, but are quickly growing out of them. We can't seam to find a rock big enough for their broad shoulders!! Since the cages are going to be made out of wood; does anyone have any ideas on how to make a hammock? We were thinking screen, but weren't sure . . .
