    Big snake, small dogs

    So, I built a lid with hardware cloth and one by twos. So far it is working great! It is attached by four camouflage ratchet (not the new use of ratchet) straps. He hasn't rubbed his nose at all yet. So now, my next challenge will be keeping the temperature and humidity up in such a tall...

    Big snake, small dogs

    Thank you so much! Unfortunately, I am on a bit of a budget . I'm going to have to stick to the tank for now. I REALLY want one of those majestic custom cage furniture enclosures. I just don't have a few grand to drop at the moment. So, it sounds like I either need to build a lid or...yeah...

    Big snake, small dogs

    I recently rescued a seven foot Red Tail Boa from some pretty crappy conditions. I've had snakes before, but never this large. So today, I bought a 90 gallon tank for him and now I need to acquire a lid. Not just any lid though, a SUPER SECURE lid to protect my dogs and birds from him. I have...

    Four tanks for one?

    Would anyone in or around Tennessee be willing to trade a 100 gallon or larger for four tanks? (2) 29 gallons and (2) 10 gallons? Please message me with any trade ideas! I'm in desperate need of a large tank as I rescued a 6 ft boa from terrible conditions yesterday. He is still crammed in a 20...

    Can anyone tell me a website (up to date) where I can find exotic, reptile, or bird show dates near me? The only thing I could find was Repticon. Thank you!

    The what if game

    Maybe a random idea...but is your boxer interested in your tortoise? IF SO...good! Maybe let your dog help you search for the tortoise. Turn it into a game! You start by looking under and around things and get your pup real excited to help you find "something". It's worth a shot and it's worked...

    Beautiful Box Gentleman

    Hey there all you beautiful and knowledgeable people! My friend found this tortoise in her yard in Alabama. I have several questions: 1. What type of box tortoise is he? 2. Any age guesses? 3. She has kept him in an outdoor enclosure for over a year now, but needs to re-home him because she is...

    Baby Sulcata help... please?

    Thank you, Tom! I feel like you're world famous! The coil bulb is off. Now to buy a CHE with a thermostat and a new UVB bulb. I'm sure I'll be asking a million questions about his new enclosure soon :-)

    Baby Sulcata help... please?

    Thank you all so much. I do need to "relax". Haha, I've just seen so many images of deformed sulcatas and I don't want to harm my little guy by being ignorant, or uninformed. This forum is amazing and I've spent a great deal of time on here collecting information. I am very thankful this...

    Baby Sulcata help... please?

    Ok, so... 1. I need to get a UVB bulb that is not a coil. 2. Find/build an enclosure that is much larger yet holds the humidity. 3. Only soak him once a day, but for longer. Sound about right? Anything else I can do? Anyone else have any input...

    Baby Sulcata help... please?

    Thank you for the reply :) I have had him since May so I know he has to be at least 9 months old, is his growth severely stunted? Is his pyramiding irreversible? I've only seen the bubbles today, what are other signs of a respiratory infection? And are sulcatas prone to that in such a humid...

    Baby Sulcata help... please?

    Hello everyone, I have several questions about my baby sulcata (Nelson) and would love any feedback, questions, critiques, or suggestions! I have read Tom's sulcata care thread (about ten times), realized everything the pet store told me was completely wrong, and have attempted to reverse (or...
