    Love is in the air...

    I had to zoom in quite a bit to take the shot but here is a shot of my Indian stars doing their thing. The lone female taking a break afterwards. It's pretty warm down here in S. Texas this time of year so they frequently gather 'round the waterin' hole for a drink throughout the day...

    Getting ready for bath time!

    Every morning these little guys get a nice warm bath to get their day started. I place them in the tub and then slowly fill it will some warm water.

    TSF Indian star baby

    This animal was produced by **** Bartlett and was incubated at 89 degrees for a high probability of being female, however, the sex is not guaranteed. "She" is feeding well on greens including: red-leaf lettuce, romaine lettuce, clovers and various yard weeds. She doesn't have a strong appetite...

    Seeesters!

    This morning I received my TSF elegans sisters from **** Bartlett. Great guy, BTW. The transaction went very smoothly. They enjoyed their soak this evening after having a few hours to relax in their enclosure post arrival.

    Some yellowfoot love...

    We don't see too many YF threads so I thought I would start one on my new addition. I picked up this little fella for two reasons. 1) Size and growth potential - it's very big for it's age and is growing rapidly. I think (hope) she will be a monster YF. 2) Possible female - even though...

    "Herbal Hay"

    Herbal tortoise hay - Tortoise Supply I recently tried out the Herbal Tortoise Hay from Tortoise Supply and I was really impressed by it. I own a young Gpb leopard tortoise and she devours it every time I offer it. I place a small pinch on top of the Mazuri and she will mow through it...

    Some Gpb love

    Since the Gpp have been stealing the spotlight lately I decided to give a small update on my "little" Gpb. I bought "her" right at a year ago from a breeder here on TFO. She was maybe a month old then so she is right at a year or so in age. Took some measurements a few days ago and weighed...

    Another tegu???

    Yep, I bought another one, they are so damn cute. Red tegu from Ty Park. I saw a black and white/red hybrid and decided I wanted to make my own so I bought a female red to raise up for a future breeding project.

    Anyone want some pie?

    New female pied. She is by far the sweetest ball python I own. The two spiders I own are very skittish and shy and the normal is very cage aggressive but OK when you get her out.

    Baby leopard tortoise - last one

    This is the last baby I have available this year. He has been raised 'hot and humid' since day one. He is now several months old and doing very well. He is fed a varied diet and accepts everything readily. No need to worry about sudden infant death syndrome, as this little guy is already...

    Update - almost a year

    I've almost had him/her a year. Purchased last year in Oct. Current weight is 475 grams and just shy of 5" SCL. He's been outside for the last 4 months or so and I've seen his shell get a little rough in that time but not terrible at all. I wouldn't consider it pyramided.
