Thanks, David! I'm glad to know I'm on the right track. "Cornelius" seems to be a happy & healthy corn so far! - Mike
Thanks, everyone! I guess I'm a "nervous nellie" when it comes to my animals. I want them to be absolutely as happy & healthy as I can make...
Further to the above, I think I'm going to change his feeding to once every 10 days, and see how that goes. Strangely (to me), he looks like...
In November 2010, I acquired an adult (about 4.5 feet long) day-glo orange corn snake (he's a rescue - found at-large in someone's kitchen in BC,...
I should have known better than to ask here for help. It appears that all there is here is flaming and recriminations. I've seen it so many...
Our fat, healthy green tree frog just had one of its hind legs almost completely severed by the gecko that shares its tank. It appears to have...
As for WDs and training, it's no problem at all! My WD Demitirius has me trained just the way he wants me. He prefers to eat from my hand...
Well, for the time being, I guess I'll keep Demitrius in his new digs. He's only 16" long at this point, and seems to really enjoy his place....
Unfortunately, I went with the instructions given in the WD care sheet, which advises that they need an enclosure twice their length. His new one...
The spray paint I found is an imitation-rock paint, latex-based, and vanilla-scented (?!?). There is another fellow on the 'net who has a series...
Now the gray rock wall at the bottom, that forms the land for his enclosure, that's another story. Believe it or not, that's made of...
You can view some of their products at Exo Terra - Make Your Reptiles Feel At Home. I think these enclosures are a fairly new product, as I...
The back wall is simulated rock and is actually painted styrofoam...it comes fitted in the new "Exo Terra" brand (distributed by Hagen) tank....
I've been asked for more pics...so, here they are. There's one showing some of his new enclosure (with him peaking at me), a couple showing his...
I've just moved my dragon "Demitirius" (now a year or so old, 18" long, and has "attitude"!) from his old enclosure to a brand new one, with a...
I know all dragons have different personalities, but mine NEVER goes to the bathroom anywhere but in the water. I've given him a much larger...
The only veterinarian around that will work with reptiles is away on holidays for two weeks. Our plated lizard, "Digger", died this morning....
I don't know the temp or the humidity (although it hasn't changed in the year we've had her, and she's been disgustingly healthy, very active, and...
I should have added that her breathing seems to be really labored, like she's having to force air into her lungs...
Our adult female plated lizard stopped eating a fews days ago (she is normally insatiable), and tonight started gaping and making strange clicking...
