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.

First Leo Hatchling After A Long Wait!
Hello Everyone,
This morning I discovered my first leo hatchling in the incubator! I think right now we're sitting around 77 days. I incubated for female at 79F (which I now realise is a couple degrees too low). This little one weighed in at 3.6grams (I'm guessing that's a typical hatchling weight for these guys?). There was no signs of any left over yolk in the egg or attached to the hatchling.
Here is a pic of dad:
Mom is pretty similar, but with more carrot tail. (Sorry, I don't have any pics of her).
Here is the hatchling:
Looks to me to have some jungle possibly? Any guesses?
Thanks for looking!
-Amanda Heaton

Here's the clutchmate!
Thanks for the input everyone! I purchased both the parents as adults, and neither breeder made mention of any stripe in their backgrounds. Perhaps it's just part of their jungleness? This clutchmate has a more complete stripe on the tail than the first. The black regions also look lighter to me, and already fading out at their edges. Should be interesting to see what happens!
These pics were taken next to my window in hopes for some natural light pictures.
This one was slightly lighter at 3.4 grams.
