    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

This is Jack. He is a hypo trans male with purple paradox patches on his legs and some in the face. This is his progression from baby to now. He started out with no translucency, then he started losing white pigmentation, and then lost the translucency.

The other thing is that this guy refuses to grow. Hes kind of my oddball dragon in that he is only 11" & 81 grams, yet I've had him since March of 2013. (His set up, lights, care, diet and supplementation matches that of my other 20 dragons who have all grown or are growing at the normal fast rate that dragons usually grow at). He is also my pickiest insect eater which causes me no end in stress trying to find his new favorite insect each week. Anyone else have a dragon that will not grow like this?

Just thought I'd share his pigment transformation as I thought it was pretty interesting.

And this is another photo of Jack during the time he was losing white pigmentation. This was around the same time as the photo in the middle of the collage. The photo in the middle of the collage was taken outdoors in natural sunlight, and this one was taken indoors with flash.
