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.

This question would be best answered by the person you bought them from, that way he can tell you if they are het for anything.

Excuse my ignorance but I'm not sure what that means. Also he just told me the male is a red and the female is an Italian leather back.

the male (top pic) does have red (looks red in the pic) in him being red doesnt always mean solid red
the female (bottom pic) is a leather back
so if thats all he told you about them then your doing fine
very nice dragons
het is a term used for a non visual recessive trait (hypo,clear nails)
but like ed said your best is asking the person who sold them to you about if they are hets or not

they are worth what you paid for them there really is no standard for prices more of a sliding scale but the most important thing is are you happy with them

Yes I am very happy with them. I was just curious because when they are older I would like to breed them and sell the babies. I am lost at what they would sell for because I have seen leather back dragons go anywhere from $150.00 to $300. Same with red ones. I guess I was curious as to how to how one justifies the price?

are their nails clear?
They look so identical is size/color that I'm assuming they are almost certainly siblings. So I wouldn't breed them together, and let anyone buying them know not to either.
There are a lot of things to consider when trying to put a price on dragons. Like size (they are well started), color (they have decent color), and genes like hypo, trans, leather (they don't have much there). It also depends on how fast you want to sell them. I'm kind of hesitant to put exact numbers out there just because of how much opinions will likely vary. How about you tell us how much you paid, and we tell you if you got a good deal or overpaid?
its kind of hard to tell from pictures, but it looks like that female is getting close to shedding. If that is the case, she will probably look a lot better after she does.

leatherback is 1 genetic trait. The ones up at the prices you mentioned probably also had hypo and translucent genes in the mix. A ready to breed adult will also be worth more money than a baby.
