Has anyone ever used ReptileAuction.com ? I tried to register and it wouldn't send me my password after it said it would. Now it says it did, but it hasn't. There is no one to e-mail as every e-mail address for assistance comes back as not deliverable. Any ideas???

In case anyone is intrested in a free herp care software program, I just came across this a couple of days ago. The guy is still working on tweaking some things and is open to sugestions. I really like it myself. http://www.thegeckocam.com/hcs/what/index.php

After trying everything in and out of the book and forums, I took two pinkies, thawed in hot water, and then rubbed them all over my crested geckos. The geckos thought they were getting a massage. I rubbed bellies, head, everywhere. I gave one to my Opal and one to my Hypo Bloodred. Put them...

Well, I went to the reptile show today and I decided to go for it. I bought a pair of the het "Blue Corns". They are Snow Motley x Blue Corn. The female has the Snow Motley look and the male is a Light Anery looking fellow with light pink running through him and on his saddles. Very pretty. Time...

I am presently using Rubbermaid tubs in a home made rack set-up. My tubs are about 33"L x 13"W x 12"H. I'm looking to purchase a plastic made lighter rack, but most of the tubs are only 6" high and about 22" x 16". I always felt like these may be small for full grown Corns, but they say it is...

I was at a reptile show today and a guy had a Snow x Blue Corn and an Anery X Blue. He said the Blue was a new morph that they were experimenting with, but that the one parent was blue. Anyone know anythig about this? He also had some hatchling "Rainbow Corns" but wasn't selling them. Any...

My office where I keep my snakes is up to 92*. I don't have the air on in here because I heard it can cause respitory infections. It goes down in the mid to upper 70's at night but the day temps are high. Is this ok? Their heat tape is on a thermostat that goes on at 83* I'm just worried about...
