Hey guys! I haven't been on her very much as I have been very busy with pairing snakes and beefing girls up for breeding. All my reptilian family is doing well and they're all enjoying the nice warm sunshine. My tortoises now have a summer home for grazing and lounging in the sun. They still...
I know a lot of members on this forum are people that have recently gotten their first tortoise, and a lot have had tortoises for years. The weather hitting the east coast right now has inspired me to create this post to help those with new tortoises be prepared for the cold weather and power...
Where I live we are supposed to get a foot and a half of snow. Because I live above the freeze line it is going to be heavy. I hate this weather but the kids love it.
Hi everyone, I'd like you to meet my new veiled chameleon Echo. I purchased him from another member on the forum and I am very pleased with how healthy and friendly he is. I owned a Jackson's chameleon for 16 years and she had to be out down last October due to a very aggressive cancer, I felt...
I love giant sulcatas and I want mine to hurry up and weigh 100lbs so I can go outside and be able to give them nice head scratches and lay in the sun with them all day. It's a ritual for me to go soak up some rays even with My big snakes. They live going outside and enjoying the nice warm...
My husband and I have been married for 10 years and we where together through some of junior high (middle school) and all of highschool and collage. Recently we have been having difficulties in the relationship and the other day I went through my hubbies phone and found he had been seeing...

Or a leopard tortoise. Slipped my mind when posting this.
I've figured out a little recipe that closely resembles salad style.
1lb orchard grass hay
1lb Timothy hay
6oz alfalfa hay
1lb Bermuda grass hay
Take all the hay and use a pair of scissors to cut it into very fine pieces. Once all the hay is a very fine texture get out the good ole food...
I love all my snakes from the little baby corns to my 23ft anaconda, even when things like this happen...
While collecting eggs from my big burmese girl, she decided to flop onto the floor, fine by me. Made my job of retrieving eggs tremendously easier. In the process of getting her back into...
I have 10lbs of the premium pasture mix from GrowOrganic.com and I was wondering what is the best method for keeping grass indoors during the winter. I used to use a coil UVB bulb for growing grasses indoors, but I started having trouble seeing from them (go figure). So, I threw out the coil...
Both Olive and Tiger have grown like crazy and are doing absolutely fantastic for me. Both little babies are eating like champs!

Both torts have grown about 3 cm and gained about 1 -20oz since I've had them.
The reason I feed the torts in a separate little bin is because it's so much...
I recently looked on Google to examine what metabolic bone disease looks like in reptiles other than tortoises as I have never seen it before.
Seeing how deformed and truly unhealthy some of the animals where stuck a knife deep in my chest. I keep a wide variety of animals and I have a lot of...
I had sponges taped glued to the top of one of the babies hides and just a few minutes ago I went to spray the babies down and noticed a little yellow thing that had gotten pushed around and behold a sponge. I guess the adhesive gave and the sponge fell, well my problem is a few little pieces of...
Mine is picking shed off of any reptile. I monitor the reptile room constantly. Cleaning, watering, feeding, and looking for shedding!
If I notice a snake or lizard with shed starting to peel off I have to get it off or I am NOT okay. I will immedietly soak that animal for at least an hour then...
I was out in the yard collecting various grasses and weeds to mix with my babies greens and I came across three leaf clovers. Would this be okay to add to the salad?
[hr]
Oh and what about wild onion grass. I have a crap ton of that too. Lol.
Once my babies get larger I want to have them microchiped and I want a tracking device put on them. Would this be okay? I've seen way to many posts about tortoises getting lost and never seen again and I want to take every preventive measure to keep them home, healthy, and most importantly...
