    CHE question

    I have a Zoo Med 100w CHE that I got when adopting some EBTs. Would it be ok to use this in a Flukers brand clamp dome (10 1/2") rated for up to 250w incadescent and CHE bulbs? This is all the pet store has available and I'm trying to raise temps for sick EBTs. I have never used heat/light...

    FLUORESCENT YELLOW PEE....is this normal?

    One of my EBTs peed in the water and it was Fluorescent yellow/green. They often relieve themselves in the water and that is not my concern as I know this is common. It just so happens that this time it was a fluorescent shade of yellow/green or lime green. Is this normal?

    Baby Box Turtle

    http://daytona.en.craigslist.org/pet/3847501625.html It says baby EBT, but I don't think so...it's hard to tell, but I'm thinking Ornate or Florida?? Either way, I hope someone has the space for it...it's a good price and I certainly hope it's not being kept in a tiny "critter cage".

    Eastern Box Turtle/3 Toed Question

    Is it common for Eastern Box Turtles to have 3 toes on the back feet? I just received a pair today and they both have only 3 toes on the back feet. I've read somewhere that 4 would be the normal amount, but sometimes they do only have 3. I'm wondering if it's specific to a certain region or...
