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.

Fire Skink breeders and Pics
Hiya! I've been anamored with fire skinks for a while but quite a few sources i find selling them are wild caught. Are there any really good Fire skink breeders i should be aware of when the time comes to add one of these gorgeous skinks to my tiny (but growing!) reptile collection?
I'd also love to see pictures of your Fires, blue tongues seem to take most the skink glory here, but i'm mostly interested in Fires.

It's been a little while since you posted, but I happened to stumble across this in a google search for, incidentally, other fire skink breeders! Haha
FWIW, I've been having quite a bit of success breeding my pair. When you're ready to try Fires, give me a shout!
(also, baby picture! because it's about the only picture I have on this computer)

Oh awesome! Those are some really pretty fire skinks! Why is it that not many people breed them? I'll definitely be sure to drop you a line when I'm ready to get a fire, I absolutely love their colors and (sometimes) their temperaments! Are captive bred fires more calm then similarly aged wild collected?

Not sure why more people don't breed- they aren't hard at all once they get going! If I were to guess at a reason, they're extremely difficult to sex and not a high dollar animal. I got lucky on the sexing front!
Temperament can still be hit or miss with CBB. My experience has been good so far, only had one CBB that was nippy, but he could still be handled and would hand feed. Not all will be friendly and handleable, but seems to be better odds than WC. To be absolutely fair in that, though, I only have experience with one WC juvenile so far- before this one, all my WC came to me as adults or sub-adult.
