What does the "0.0.0 (insert animal name)" format stand for?

[preacher]

What does this mean ? 0.0.1 Sceloporus serrifer (blue spiny lizard)

I understand the type/breed/genes references, it is the numbers portion that I cannot cypher.

Is it ALIVE.DEAD.OWNED; YEAR.MONTH.DAYS; OWNED.OWNED.DESCEASED?

I know it has some meaning I've seen it also on another forum. Here is someones partial list to clear up for me.

0.0.1 Sceloporus serrifer (blue spiny lizard)
0.0.1 Red x Orange baby Pogona vitticeps (bearded dragon)
0.0.1 Lampropeltis getula splendida (Desert Kingsnake)
1.1.0 Python regius (Ball Python)
1.1.0 cat
1.0.0 dog
0.1.0 mouse
0.1.0 bunny
0.1.0 hamster

what the numbers are refering to are the associated numbers and sex of the animal

1.0.0 = 1 male
0.1.0 = 1 female
0.0.1 = 1 unknown sex
1.1.0 = 1 male 1 female

and so forth =) i hope that cleared up your confusion

This thread has been officially sticky-ed. This is a question that many people new to animal related forums ask, so I thought it would be good to make the thread permanent so that new folks will not have to post the question again.

Good idea. I know it was a question I had when I first started.
