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.

changing color?
i bought 3 bearded dragons babies ( they are 3 month old and are the "regular" type).
fist 2 were dark and one looked a little on the orange side, the next day they were all dark, then the one that was "orange looks dark and another changes to an orange color....
i know they have different colors/types of dragons and that they will start showing more color as they get older...but i thought the regular stays the same.
or does the heatlamps have anything to do with it?
since it is really hot right now in cali i do not have the heatlamp on, but i do have a repta-sun sun-glo during the day for uv rays on and at night i turn the blue/black repta-sun on.
but i notice the change usually when i take them out and hold them in the regular light.
they also like to hang around in their water dish/pool.
any ideas about a reason for the color changing?
thanks
dianne

Color Changes.
Natural sunlight will definetely FIRE them up. I keep mine outside and notice that they change colors in relation to the temp and Direct sunlight. During mid day when temps are the hottest they tend to be bright. Towards the end of the day in the evening when the sun goes down they get much Darker. Reptiles in general are usually darker when they need to heat themselves up. Darker colors absorb more sunlight and allow them to heat up faster and use the most of whats available to them.
