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 can't remember the owner's name off the top of my head...I think it's "Doug". Anyway, he is a great guy. I have talked with him at a few shows and picked up some veileds from him. Awesome Uro's, too.
I'd recommend him to anyone.

I agree -- Doug Dix is a wonderful person to do business with and extremely knowledgeable about his animals. I've seen his facility and it is exceptionally clean. I've purchased uros from him, and I see him at our local show every year. I would not hestitate to recommend him to anyone!

I have been purchasing from Doug for at least 6-7 years now. I just purchased Blue Tongue Skinks from him last weekend. Doug is old school class. The best of the best. He knows his critters like no one else. There isnt a better Uromastyx breeder out there. These skinks are at the top of my list too.
Very helpful, very informative. He just hooked me up with a wa. local small exotic mammal breeder. His suggestions for my new store options were fantastic.
Quality animals and quality guy! As always, thanks Doug!

Doug Dix of Deer Fern Farms is excellent to work with. I recently purchased a Uromastyx from him and I am very happy with the new addition to my collection. Doug is the most knowledgeable uro keeper I've ever met, and has produced a good number of captive bred Uros and Chuckwallas, among other animals. He also has a PhD in wildlife toxicology. Doug Dix = GOOD GUY!

When I rescued my first uro, douglas we nice enough to answer many questions of mine to help me.
He was very patient and helpful, even though I was not purchasing from him.

I too have had great success with Dr. Dix, I have gotten his "second pick" Merauke BTS several times. The one thing I have to add is that Dr. Dix is still well immersed in the "old school" in some things. This can often lead to great success, and has for him, but I think that some of his keeping processes could certainly be modernized a bit. Although I already knew Blueys fairly well at the time of my first purchase from him, Dr. Dix was absolutely insistent that the best diet for Blue-Tongues was a high quality dog food . Although I am not saying this is entirely incorrect (although I would do it differently) , I may hesitate to recommend him to a first time keeper who would believe everything they here from an expert like Dr. Dix. Overall though his animals are of the highest quality around, and his table is absolutely always the most crowded with customers at the local shows at which he is a vendor.

Just a little fact about "ol" Doug dix.... yea I like malis too! After looking for almost a year I wanted to scream.. I was having NO luck finding 4 nice large mali females for my stud! Out of the blue I get a call from Doug asking if I still wanted the 4 females I was wanting last year? Heck yea I did! I couldn't belive after only sending Doug one email about females he came to me OVER A YEAR later and had 4! All 4 were awesome and prewormed for me at my request. . . Doug, you da man!

Completed an order with Dr. Dix and could not be more pleased. Two unrelated specimens of hard to find Uros in immaculate condition and larger than expected. Packed extremely well too. Very happy!
