I just candled them and two are reddish with what looks to be veins and I saw what looks like an air pocket in one of them while the third one is a yellow color and seems infertile
My three eggs have been in the incubator for 77 days now and no one has hatched yet. The incubator was set at 86 degrees (I meant to set it to 82 and just realized 2 months later that I never did) and all eggs look great. No mold, rotten smell, or indentations. Am I just overreacting? These are...
I picked up 4 new box turtles (3 easterns and 1 gulf coast/ eastern hybrid) last week to add to my colony and was told they were all female but upon inspection the gulf coast hybrid is male. To my surprise, as of about 20 minutes ago one of the females just dug a nest and laid some eggs. My...
He’s living outdoors for the summer. We’ve been having 80 something degree weather for the past week here in Kentucky so he’s been sunning a lot to get his warmth
Long story short I adopted a Sulcata Tortoise this morning. He’s over 100 pounds and estimated to be 20 years old. He was kept underneath a work bench in someone’s garage on the cold concrete for two years before being surrendered to a reptile rescue near me. I brought him home this morning and...
I have recently paired my male giant carrot tail leopard gecko to my female blizzard and have caught them breeding many times. It’s been 17 days since they first bred. She stopped eating yesterday which is not normal because she got her name “Psycho” from her aggressive feeding response. I’m...
Sadly no. The female’s appetite grew quite a lot and she became aggressive towards me (even trying to attack the weed eater). She has dug what seemed to be a test nest last week but hasn’t dug anymore lately. Still hoping for eggs though!
He looks the most like the mole salamander but he isn’t near as chunky as the pictures of mole salamanders online. Could possibly be because he’s still young but I’m not an amphibian expert
I’ve had this salamander for months now and I got him from some girl who had raised him from the larvae stage when she caught him out her pond. He’s a pretty cool guy and doesn’t do much. He’d been missing for almost a month now and I just assumed he sadly passed away but I couldn’t find his...
No luck today. I’m gonna wake up early tomorrow and look for him again. I left some carrots and strawberries out for him. Hopefully he’ll snack on them tomorrow morning if he’s still near
I woke up this morning and found my eastern box turtle missing. I have just gotten him yesterday and he was spending the night in the Russian tortoise pen (the Russians came inside for the night) and early this morning he was walking around the pen looking for some worms I guess and by 8am he...
