    Yellow foot and Salcuta

    Passive aggressive? I’ve known several persons who let large Sullies or Russians roam yard with dogs. I thought the larger space would be good for him. I could put up another pen, of course it would be smaller.

    Yellow foot and Salcuta

    Well I separated the two because the Salcuta doesn’t care she’s a different species even though I don’t think they could “match” up. I wasn’t sure if it could get aggressive. So she’s in a pen inside of the yard. She knows I am a provider of good and will come to me though I heard Yellowfoots...

    Yellow foot and Salcuta

    I’ve tried several enclosures over the years. This season my Salcuta is just roaming yard with a Dog Igloo for shelter. We have a corner lot so it’s decent size. Though I’m working on dogs to leave alone! My Yellowfoot has a pen and loves soaking daily. Each have access to their own mini pond...

    Home Depot seeds on sale!!!!

    I was wondering if I just planted a bunch of seeds right in the pen if they'd have a chance to grow. Seems doubtful.

    housing different species together

    The Russian likes one enclosure while the YF enjoys the other enclosure. Naturally I'm not an expert and surely know less than many here. I have not found the dietary or envoronmental needs to be so completely different in the research I have come across. I live in Houston. We don't have much of...

    housing different species together

    The evidence shows that my guys mainly ignore the other. Their only concern is food and shelter. The Russian in picture had a moment of curiosity then off he went.

    Yellowfoot not so shy

    Everything I read about Yellowfoots indicate they are harder to keep than RedFoots and that they are very shy. My Tort is very curious. She wants to figure out my scent going pass food offered to sniff me. She comes to me knowing I feed her. She's very curious of human visitors too. Don't worry...

    Any Scorpion lovers here?

    What's a BT? How big is your monitor? Expensive snack.[hr] So do crickets carry parasites or attract them? I usually leave crickets with the Tarantula.

    Rescue turtle

    Passed the same area yesterday and saw a dead turtle hit by a car. They must be moving out from somewhere due to the area construction or simply drought. Sad.

    Do it yourself pet nail trim ideas

    Thanks Tom. Sounds like you have quite the experience. I heard cornstarch was suitable also. But I sure will check into the styptic powder with the crew I have here. My fear is the hitting the Quick more than anything. For some reason one of my dog's nails seem to take care of itself yet the...
