So last winter i was given a rather nice healthy adult charcoal corn and its in great health but in the last few sheds i have noticed that its getting white tips on its scales? its not rot and i wish i could get a pic of it up my camera is not working. is it normal for them to get white tips...

ive been looking at them for awhile and have a question are they loud or quiet? croak alot?

i was at the pet store today and they had a what was marked as a Thai crab. has anyone ever kept one or know the proper care for them because i think it would a nice pet to put in my empty tank.

I was given a charcoal female corn that weight 900 grams from a friend that had to move and couldn't take it with her. it shed 1 month ago and is in blue again. it has not eaten for me yet due to changing it from live to f/t. its in perfect health proper temps. is there a chance its going to lay...

I'm getting a adult charcoal from my friend "for free" that is healthy and the only meal it has passed up in the last 8 months is due to being in blue. the only problem is it has been eating live adult mice or small rats never been fed f/t. will it be harder to convert since it has been eating...

how long dose it take for an adult to shed? mine went into blue on monday cleared up thrusday and hasnt shed yet is that normal? the humidity has been around 65%

my snake is getting ready to shed, im so happy! i have the humidity up to 65 to 70% i hope all turns out good :dancer:

So when a corn musk dose it also crap with it? i was holding mine last night and about 10min into holding her she let loose, it had been 3days since she ate didnt think it would poop that soon? :shrugs:

What color do the eyes of an amel turn when they shed? I'm trying to figure out if she is getting ready to or not haven't had a shed with her yet. I figure i have the tank at a good humidity level between 40% and 50%:shrugs:

So i fed my amel today and i guess i went to put her back in the viv to soon, she arched her head up hissed and rattled her tail up on the feeding box it was loud the tail hitting the box made me jump lol it sounded as if i had a rattler in my room. So now im wondering how long should i wait to...

So when i set my tank heat is it suppose to be on the glass with a uth or in the bedding or on top? the air temp during the day with my lamp is 85 on the hot side and 72 on the cool. at night the cool side gets to 68 to 71 depending on the house temp. Am i doing it right? any advise would be great

im planing on make"n a tank for my snake and want to know if a uth works with lexan?
