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 think silkies remind me a lot of the sphinx cat or Chinese crested hairless dog. Silks have just a small amount of scales left on their heads and tails with maybe a few on toes/feet. Sphinx cats normally retain a bit of fur in these areas as well and hairless Chinese crested dogs always do in those areas. Also similar to both is the fact that the amount of scales in these areas varies from silk to silk just as with the cat and dog mutation...some sphinx cats too are called sticky bald by breeders because they have so little hair they feel sticky to the touch and other sphinx retain more hair and may have a fine but thicker downy like coat. I find this interesting that the mutation in both reptiles and mammals is so much the same even though their genetic makeup is so different. Anyone else notice this?

Yes they do, especially the face. Also remind me almost of an amphibian too. I think they are adorable....so many pretty ones on here! My only fear is breeding silkie to silkie. They still have claws...sharp as any beardie and same teeth and male silkies will act like any other breeding male. Or breeding a reg beardie male with a silkie female. I just don't know if it could be done without the females getting bitten and cut up? Plus with silk to silk would there be a higher mortality rate for the clutch? I've heard so many theories. Of course breeding as done now with leathers eliminate all that, but then that kind of makes silkbacks more of a novelty pet than anything else. I love them anyway tho!
