I keep waffling on names for this incredibly personable little lavender! Tulip? Laika? Whatever her name turns out to be, she seems to actively like being handled, which is so nice. She may be het motley, and got a bit more mauve/pink in her last shed, so it'll be interesting what happens with...

Hi all! I've last written on this forum in the snakes wanted section, looking for a retired adult snake to keep as a pet. Well, after searching for that so long to no avail and missing out on so many potential snakes, I decided to get a baby and be in it for the long haul after all. So, of...

Hi all, I haven't been active on these forums since 2005 or so, when I had my first corn snake from SerpenCo. I had a really great experience with them, and with my snake, but about eight years ago I had to adopt my snake to a new home, specifically because I accepted a job that required my...

Hopefully someone can still help me despite that I've started this off with the cheesiest excuse for a title ever..? Okay. I've had my corn snake for a little over 5 years now. She's always been fed and happy and had a clean tank - but the past year, she's been mighty restless. She started...

Has anyone here gotten into actually studying herps or gotten a job (obviously other than, yaknow, breeding) based on it? I'm really interested in entering that kind of work but don't really want to become a vetrinarian, and have no idea where to start. Maybe entering zoology and concentrating...

...If anyone remembers me :) Anywho I haven't been around here much (or,... at all) for a while. Just saying a little aloha to you all. -ronlina

I know that the MSPCA here doesn't include reptiles, but is it more because of the lack of knowlage about herps, than the lack of resources? I want to try and get something together at the MSPCA, because there aren't any shelters I know of around my area yet in the wantads people are always...

Tomorrrow (Oct 24th) is the All New England Reptile Expo in Manchester, New Hampshire. - Anyone gonna be there? Anyone going to be selling? This'll be the first time I'll be at a herp show. (: So I'm all excited.

Hmmm... Herpshows.com has Sunday, September 26 listed for the show in Manchester, NH. this year. But on http://www.reptileexpo.com/, it says that the next show there will be on Sunday, October 24. Confuzzled me a wee bit. Does anyone know what the actual date of this thing will be? I'm...

Hey everyone. :) It's been a while since I've posted here. I have a non- cornsnake problemo. About two months ago or so I got my first Leopard Gecko. I've kept her without problems and she'd been doing fine. However, the lid on her cage was flimsy and must have fell into the cage...

I'd been feeding my yearling pinkies since I got her, when she was about 8 months old. Anyway, she started eating two pinkies each week and I started to think she was ready for the next step up. I fed her one fuzzy, and at first all seemed well. She pooed, she was active, she seemed fine...

I'm having a hard time finding these guys, anyone know anyone trustworthy who breeds them? (or maybe one of you do?) Also, I'm having some trouble on finding caresheets for these guys, too. I read it's a kind of ratsnake, and they need a lot of room - could someone point me in the direction of...

I read a breif blurb about Calico morphs in Kathy Love's Cornsnake Manual - but haven't seen many pictures or heard anything about them except for there. Anyone here own a calico? Where did the genetics for them come from, or is it just a mutation? ...just curious....

I posted a thread a short while ago about getting a leopard gecko, asking for advice, - some of you guys asked me to tell you all how she arrived (she was a rescue, and was being shipped overnight) Well this morning she came when FedEx said, 10:30 - but not alive and well. In fact, she...

Well, usually i give little blitz a bath about 3 days after a meal. However this time the poo looked a lot.. pooier. There was more and it seemed to come out in a stream or ...'log' or something, was still brown but not that dark, and had the normal 'whitish' part. It seemed totally digested...

...I'm getting my first leopard gecko very soon - adopting a possibly 8mo-1.5 year female (she was rescued from a crap-home and as a result has no toes..) I really want to take the best care of her. i've been reading up on them considerably and only need the tank to put everything in before...

I have a 14-15 inch '03 (from last July) that had been eating one pink a week for a little while. After feeding, she started to seem like she was looking for more food, so just out of curiosity I threw her another and she took it down right quick. The next week, I fed her the same (2 pinks)...

...could someone tell me the longest time reccomended for keeping frozen mice in the freezer? Is there a time limit to ensure they remain good for my snake to eat? I was thinking of buying online frozen mice but online companies seem to sell in huge numbers - I only have one snake right now so...

I put this in behavior because I figured that Intelligence is linked to behavior. It's an article about a study done with corns and intelligence, it's really pretty interesting. The link: http://www.lasuerte.org/omesnakes.htm (...but of course we all knew corns are smart- just one escape is...
