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.

2 very small 2yr old dragons very small
My brother went to jail over a week ago and I got his dragons there very small hes had them for around 2 years and his girlfriend said he has been feeding spring mix for past month every other day, no crickets for over a month. Ive seen adult dragons and these are super small comapred to what ive seen. Will they get bigger if i get them back to heath and one is way skinnier then the other too. I got a uva/uvb light the 10.0 one. And im keeping there basking at 90 or so. What can I do to get them back to heath? Thanks

Scott, can you post a picture? Are you sure these are not Rankin's? It is good that you are helping them
I'm thinking the actual basking spot (not the whole cage) can go higher than 90.
What are you feeding them now?

I measured them today one is 6 3/4- 7ish inches and the other is 6 1/2in. from nose to where tail starts. will they get any bigger if I bring them back to heath? I know the one is getting a little fatter since ive got them but other is still skinny. I just want them to be happy. Thanks

that dragon was given terrible care if it is only 6" and 2 years old. 6" is the size of a month old dragon. Its a good thing you took them. Give them crickets and greens. They probably have such stunted growth i would doubt they will get any bigger.

I think he means the dragons are that size snout to vent, so they would be possibly in the 13- 14 inch range. That's still very small, but with good food as Max mentioned which could also include dubia roaches and medium superworms, hornworms and silkworms as well as turnip, mustard, collard greens they could gain just a little more size. You also need good heat + UVB bulbs.

Still on the small side at 13-14" but i have definitely seen smaller dragons at that age that were not being treated correctly. Just got an email from someone not too long ago who had two dragons housed together, one male one female.....male was upwards of 600 grames, female barely 200 and not even a foot long. Most of my dragons at 4 months old were larger then this girl at 4-5 years old :-\
