Last night i got a call from an older couple from my church saying that they caught a snake and they wanted me to come check it out. so of course i went an brought the little guy home. i'll probably see if he'll eat for me (and calm down) if not, i'll release him. I'm thinking that he's an...

Well i think my family is finally realizing that i love reptiles. This Christmas they got me a baby water dragon! they jokingly named him Gomer, and the name seems to fit his personality well. This is my first lizard and I've had a little trouble finding more detailed info on them so if...

hey everyone, i know i dont post here much but it's kinda been my early new years resolution to start posing more and to be a little more open. so i thought i'd do an update on my pastel bci brutus. i got him at tinley in october and he's been doing great,eating like a pig, he's shed nicely...

I'm really hoping this ends up to be nothing, but today my little brother fed his baby sand boa and while getting her out of her feeding dish to go back into her viv (after she was done eating) we noticed a weird red blotch on her belly and on the bottom of her jaw. i instantly thought maybe...

i know the Chicago show was a few weeks ago but Ive been so busy playing football and doing homework lately that i haven't had time to show what my brother and i bought. so here are our new pets: 1.0 pastel red tail boa (currently nameless) 0.1 anery sand boa (also nameless) (does this...

i went to tinley yesterday with my family and my girlfriend and we had a great time. my little brother got an anery kenyan sand boa and i got a pastel red tail boa. we got them all set up at home but we're having trouble with our warm side temperatures. my warm side needs to be around 90 but...

does anyone know what kind of snake this is? (poss. fox snake?)my little brother found it on the road at his friends house. my little brother says it might have gotten run over but it doesnt look like it to me. its head/neck is very limp and i can see some blood smears on him near his...

i recently redid xerxes's viv because my mom was going to throw away a plastic 9X13 pan and i thought i could turn it into a hide. so i cut a hole in it, put it in on the cold side, and he loves it. I'm thinking that its not a big deal but he's always in there and I'm getting worried that he...

i sure hope that this never happens ever again... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LMxhc8WwGU&feature=related

i have quite a large decision on my hands and i need some advise. (I'm usually against sharing problems online, but I don't know where to turn on this one...) i posted this a little while ago stating a problem with my cat having fleas. we poured some stuff on the back of her neck, gave her a few...

okay, quick question to those of you that have cats, dogs, w/e. lately ive noticed little scabs all over my 11 year old cat's neck. i didnt think much of it untill i started noticing her scratching her neck a lot more then usual. just now she's laying on a small wooden table and after she...

one of my female mice had a litter last week and I've noticed that it seems like both of my females are taking care of them. is this normal? ive also noticed that it seems like both females are nursing the pinkies. do you think that any problems would happen if i feed one of the females to...

just a quick question. my parents just bought a paper shredder today and i was wondering if it was okay to use shredded paper as a substrate? i dont see any problems myself but i wasnt sure. (i'll probably use it with the snake and mice cages)

I'm not exactly sure why this happened but i woke up this morning to pieces of his shed all over the viv in tiny pieces. I've been misting him every morning and night ever since he turned blue, but it still turned out awful. i took a warm rag and let him crawl through that which took off a...

i was rather nervous to feed xerxes today because he is very, very blue. he acted hungry though so i fed him. everything went fine so i was just being a worry wart. but after i put him back in his viv i noticed him taking a big long drink and i caught a video of it and thought i'd share it with...

a friend just told me yesterday that the farm store he works at is selling chicks. i've heard of people using them to feed theier snakes. if xerxes is a lil over 5 feet long would it be safe to feed these to him?

so a while back i made a post saying that i was going to make a new wooden viv for xerxes in shop class. well its mostly done but i just realized that i haven't put any air holes yet. how important are air holes in a snakes viv?

i had a doctor appointment today so i had to leave school for that, i stopped by home on my way back to school for some painkillers. i quickly checked on the snake before i left just for fun. i found him peacefully sleeping. usually when he sleeps he curls up in his hide and blocks the doorway...

that a snake and a hamster could ever be friends? i didn't think so but according to some guy in japan they can. link i was just messin around on youtube and i found this.

okay so in woodshoop class at school i'm making a larger viv for xerxes. but that will leave me with an empty aquarium. i'm thinking that i mignt as well fill it up with annother pet. so i thought i'd ask you people what a good, easy to care for, somewhat cheep pet i should get. it'll have to...
