that rainbow sheen on her is amazing gosh
Awesome stuff bro!! They look awesome!!I think this pair of marbles is adorable with their matching patches Haha, maybe it's just me. It's still a little early to be sure but the male (right) looks like he'll be a nice vivid orange adult with the normal black/dark pattern, and the female looks like she'll be a pale/'white' marble with the 'silver' markings.
I wanted to keep this pair but unfortunately we just couldn't allocate space for them, so once they're feeding and ready to go... they will. I'll enjoy them in the meantime though
The oldest ones are now ready to go and they're all keeping me very busy!View attachment 332669View attachment 332670
Wow, nearly a year since anyone posted in this thread, and exactly a year since anyone other than myself posted a picture in it.
Am I posting in the wrong area or is this place dying?
Well, either way, I'll stick up a few pictures. These very cute little critters hatched out last week. It makes me very happy when we get them coming out looking this good.

I always want to keep them but we always end up selling them. This year I think we'll be keeping at least a pair from this clutch.
i want one... surely these are for sale for a cheap and reasonable price... i asked my missesWow, nearly a year since anyone posted in this thread, and exactly a year since anyone other than myself posted a picture in it.

How is a Chimera made? What parents do you start with?
I am afraid it is dying mate, all forums are dying, I recently let my Bearded Dragon Forum (ABDF) slip into non existence due to lack of people coming to look, a sad day for me. But nobody wants to look at forums anymore, they just want likesWow, nearly a year since anyone posted in this thread, and exactly a year since anyone other than myself posted a picture in it.

Facebook certainly has been killing off forums for about 10 years now, and something more niche like a Bearded Dragon forum was always going to have a challenge, but there are still people who see how hideous Facebook is, how valuable a specific forum is (Likely your Beardy forum was, and I'm sad to hear what happened), and some will actively seek out and support forums which exist away from Facebook. I'm quite torn over this one, APS. On one hand I think it's very valuable to have a non Facebook, private Australian herp forum so I want to support it. On the other hand, this one is run and moderated so poorly that I feel like I should avoid it. Most of my friends think I'm stupid for having anything to do with APS because of that. The moderators don't seem to either not be aware or how to properly run a forum or they aren't sufficiently able to put in the time. Given that their main efforts seem to be in attempting to resurrect dead threads and they completely ignore the problems they should be addressing (as opposed to even making an attempt to deal with them), it seems likely to be the former.I am afraid it is dying mate, all forums are dying, I recently let my Bearded Dragon Forum (ABDF) slip into non existence due to lack of people coming to look, a sad day for me.

APS was the first reptile forum I found, even though it was mainly about pythons I was accepted and I was only a dragon lover, back then I only had central and pygmy beardies. My collection has grown considerably since then. I have been able to contribute and even asked my opinions, this is why I keep coming back here.

I've found it to be invaluable in my journey.

I joined pretty early, 28th of June 2004. It wasn't the first online reptile group I'd found or even the first Australian one, but it had a nice community at the time. Wow, the best part of 20 years now... it has gone through a few iterations, some better than others. For a while it almost held a monopoly on the Australian online reptile discussion scene. It has changed hands and management styles... quite an adventure really. Funny that it when it was at its peak we all thought it was terrible, and it ended up being replaced by far far worse Facebook groups.APS was the first reptile forum I found, even though it was mainly about pythons I was accepted and I was only a dragon lover, back then I only had central and pygmy beardies.
