My leopard is in serious trouble. Its Sunday and can't get a hold of vet. Animal hospital is 2 hrs away and they said they don't have a Dr on staff the deals in exotic. Maybe the said just not today.
I walked in to check my Leo out and it looked like he was choking. He was making a weird...
I've offered fresh grass and a mix of dark greens(mustard, collard, turnip). I've seen him take a bite of the greens turn and walk away. Didn't touch the grass. Next move is to try some zoomed tortoise food or something like that. Any ideas? How long should I wait before doing the baby food soak?
With my young leopard...maybe 10-11 months...should I keep my CHE on all night. That's my only heat source. I want a night time temp...but it would get down to room temp about 70° if I turn it off. With it on my warm side is 100° and cool 75°. I don't want to over heat him...but don't want to...
Should I put it on the warm side or cool side? I have the food on the cool side so it doesn't whither up...but not sure on water. Where do u guys have it?
He(I believe) is much smaller than I initially thought....which is scary to me..
But he is home now and is adorable. Please forgive me now...I know I'll be on here screaming help. His enclosure isn't what I want it to be yet...but I'm working on it. He seems to be happy at the moment. Will try...
I have a 5.0 uvb bulb...I was advised not to go higher. its a coil bulb, which I know some people are against...but that's what I have at the moment. Anyways...my question is...I have a place for another bulb...will it hurt to have 2 5.0 uvb bulbs? I would like a little more light. Or maybe I...
How far above the basking spot should I have my thermometer? I'd say the enclosure is 18" high...I have it about half way down at 9". This sits about 6" above basking spot. Is this good? Or should I move it one way or the other? I also have one on the cool side about half way point. Should it be...
Getting enclosure ready for baby(established) leopard. Would like to have it in the living room so everyone can see him/her more often...but I do have 3 young children. Lots of running around playing, crying, screaming and so on. Will this be too much for the leopard or will it adapt. Looking at...
Got my Greek on the 8th. Woke up today and found her dead. Don't know what happened. I don't everything by the book. Temps were good. She ate OK. One thing I never saw...her drink. Not even during soaks. Always kept head above water. I just don't understand. Now I'm kind of scared to get...
Hello everyone. My name is Jason. Live in Ohio. Just recently became the proud owner of a Greek tortoise. I'm also a newbie in that sense as well. I'll try to use the search so I'm not asking the same questions that have been asked over and over. If I do ask some repetitive questions...I...
