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.

I have managed to do so for several years without racking up a single warning point because I took the time to read the rules and I choose to follow them.

oh thats total BS  we have all broken the rules but some ppl get points and some don't,it all depends on who you are friends with and whose side you take

Interesting theory, however it is obviously incorrect since many of the moderators here have warning points themselves.

edit... I never said 100% that I believe it's ok to breed and produce scaleless beardies. I said that as long as they thrive in captivity there is no reason why they should not be. Thus far I have seen no evidence that they do not do fine under captive conditions, if evidence is presented that they do not do well, then I would agree with you that they should not be bred.

By looking at dachiu's care summary on these animals (and we have to admit that these animals are so new that we don't even know the half of it) these animals need lower temperatures because of their skin. Beardies need temps of about 110f in order to digest their food. What happens when they can't get that temp without it hurting them? They never digest their food? It's been suggested that the UVB be weaker and further away...why is this? Probably because their skin could not take it.
If their skin is like a pinkie then I would like mating explained to me. How does the male do it without tearing her up?
It's late and my brain isn't functioning at full capacity, but I'm sure there is more.
Logic and common sense is going to tell you that major adjustments need to be made for these animals....I don't understand the need to create these animals when daily, on my forum I am correcting grievous mistakes made by misinformed owners. Can't you just see the problems these new creatures are going to have to endure?
The did NOT create a more durable animal, they created a weaker one, minus the scales, so that the colors shows brighter. Different = money. It has nothing to do with the animal itself.

I read the writeup on the page about the Silkbacks and you are right, it does say their care has to be adjusted and that their skin tears easily. It almost sounds like they would be kind of hard to care for. However, I will reserve judgement on these until I can learn more about their captive care and how they do in captivity. Everything I posted previously regarding inbreeding still stands though.

Well, it's never been obvious to me and I've been here for awhile now. I'm actually pretty observant and semi intelligent as well. Anyhow, all this petty bickering is getting us to the middle of nowhere real quick. It might be a good idea just to agree to disagree on this issue for now.
