    What is a safe water-proof varnish we can apply to a wooden Tortoise enclosure? Would something DIY aquarium enthusiasts use work?

    Feeder Failures (lots of CUTE pics)

    So, I went to visit my friend over the weekend. She has 2 snakes, ball pythons, that are about 13 years old. Her female will eat frozen/thawed, but her male won't and requires to be fed live. So, she'll go to the pet store and ask for mice. Well, her male wasn't interested in eating. She...

    Could you guys do me a favor, please???

    My Fetching Tags tagline has been chosen (along with others) as an entry for this month's tagline on Fetching Tags. The tagline? "I Herd U" which was a tag I ordered for my mom's bearded collie mix, Sammy. He herds everything and everyone in a playful way, so i thought the tagline was...

    Kongs for Redfoots/torts in general??

    You know those kongs for dogs? These things: I was just talking to someone (heck, she might be a member here) who has a redfoot, and she said she stuffs one of these for her redfoot. I was talking to her about Stagger and she said that in the wild they usually have to work for their...

    The Stagger Lee Collar

    I don't know how many of you are following my "Redfoot rescue" thread in the redfoot area of the forums, but if you don't visit there, I am going to post there here. A lot of you may know that my company makes collars and dog leads. I recently launched our "Collars for Causes", where I will...

    For The Roachman (and everyone else)

    Nothing you haven't seen before, but I just thought I'd share. Female Blaptica dubia. I don't dare touch these things, but my husband will handle them. I snapped these back in November. I don't know how anyone can touch these things and NOT scream their heads off and not want to...

    Redfoot Tortoise Rescue?

    Anyone know of a REPUTABLE redfoot tortoise rescue?? NO. I AM NOT GETTING RID OF MY STAGGER LEE. I am just curious if there are any reputable ones around.:D I did a google search, and couldn't find any. If there isn't a "redfoot" rescue, then is there an "All-Tortoise-Species" rescue...

    Updated photos of Ella Smella

    our adopted American Pit Bull Terrier. She's SUCH a great dog. Yes, she's dog aggressive, so she cannot be around other dogs, but she is the best dog EVER. She's not barky, has an "off" switch, is GREAT with humans (especially babies, she LOVES teh hooman babies), doesn't tear ANYTHING up. Her...

    Pablo Honey for Meg

    Here you go, Meg. Here's Pablo Honey. He's a little over a year old, and I'd put him at...easily...well over 40 grams, if not 50 grams by now. He's in a 24" wide x 12" deep x 24" tall enclosure. I keep Eco Earth as a substrate for him, he has two bamboo sticks, a piece of cork bark, and...

    His Royal Lumpiness (for Stephanie, and well, anyone else who would like to see)

    As stated in another post, humidity has been REALLY difficult to keep up this winter. I *think* I have it figured out, though, after Stag and I have gone rounds with his shell this winter. Also, Stag is on a bit of a diet, as I explained in the Reptiles Magazine thread. I think the combo...

    Lookit what Egyptiandan is getting.

    Well, Kelly and Stella are getting it, really.:D He had us make up a nice tortoise themed collar for their dog, Stella (a GORGEOUS staffy bull) to sport around in and express her love for the tortoises. Danny, does Stella really love the tortoises, too?? I don't know that Ella does, but...

    ANOTHER Lookit-what-we-made-thread! :)

    Last week we made up some collars for AARS in Chicago (dog rescue) for a fundraiser they had this week. One of my really good friends does a lot of their communications work, and she does home checks occasionally. So, we made up some collars and some leads for them.:D I LOVE these collars...

    Oh, Stagger Lee

    You silly tortoise. So, as most of you know, I follow turtletary's redfoot diet, and I do not sway much from it EVER because it REALLY works for Stag. But on his one-day-a-week protein day, I like to vary it up for him occasionally. I had to get my dog some more dog food the other day, so...

    Leo gecko hatchlings and new additions :)

    What hatchlings I have left have graduated to adult-sized enclosures. They're getting so big! They're normals het for NOTHING, which is COMPLETELY rare these days in the leopard gecko world. If they weren't all boys, I would have sold all of them by now. So, I snapped some shots the other...

    And I forgot my camera :(

    So, I fed Stagger his very first dubia roach nymph last night. I keep a blaptica dubia roach colony to feed to my geckos. But I HATEHATEHATEHATE bugs. But they're SOOOO good for reptiles. Anyway, I cut the bottom of a gladware container so that the lip was only about 1/4" high, and it's big...

    Stagger went outside today

    and I actually remembered to bring my camera out with us. I have to bring him outside since he's too small for me to feel comfortable leaving him outside by himself yet. He's a different tortoise outside. He LOVES it. The sun was SOOO bright today, and I hated that it washed his colors out...

    A little Stag in the morning

    He was eating some apple. The most adorable creature to ever live. ALWAYS has moss on him. I have NO IDEA what he was trying to eat here. He gets hungry at night. And he had already finished all of his apple, and I wasn't going to give him anymore. So I guess he...
