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.

Alittle adivce please..
Hello. i just woke up around 1 am and i looked in my leo cage and there where 2 eggs in the egg laying chamber, so i carfully toke them to my incubator, and placed them in moist vermilculite and i put the temp to around 86 to 88 degress. somewhere inbetween that. is this a good temp? or lower it? im not worried on there sexes when born. i just want to make sure the temp is ok. so i can have my first leos born. Thanks alot. also is it true after the first week. you raise the temp and you will get brighter colors? like instead of a dull tang, a brighter one... is this true? some people say so....

the temps are fine
88 will produce males, eggs would hatch in about 35-45 days
86 should produce a mix, but you'd get more males
at 88-86 the babies will be pretty bright, higher temps equals higher color, but i would not mess around with the temps as you would get some deformaties, just keep it at eaither of those temps till they hatch

if you want a more even sex ratio 84-86 will yeild the best results of both male and female

Also, if this is your females first time laying eggs do not be dissapointed if the eggs are duds..... Usually the first clutch is infertile..... No worries though.... You will get two more in 2 to 3 weeks that will have a much better chance of being fertile......
