    I hate aspen!

    If a snow corn could design the most perfect backdrop for it to blend into they would design aspen. Sometimes she can lay very still and watch us from right up in the open without us even seeing her even if we are looking. And when she buries herself, well forget about finding her unless you...

    This turtle was not so tiny

    So the girls and I have had a busy week and we have actually had some pretty cool sightings that I haven't had time to post about. It seems the turtle (or tortoise ?) popluations are on the move here in Central FL, in the last week we have had 4 sightings. The day that the puppy followed us...

    Does anyone have a Pitbull?

    SO the girls and I were out on our bikes when a puppy came running up to us. A cute little brown pitty pup. We already put up a bunch of signs in the neighborhood and we are hoping to find her owners. She is getting along fine with my dog, and everything is fine for the time being, but I don't...

    A question about humid hides

    So I think that Zelda might be getting ready to shed. This will be her first shed with us and since she is a snow I am not positive that she is actually in blue. However her eyes look like they are not as red as they usually are so I have suspicions. We have a little tupperware thing with a...

    So is there some sort of mouse thawing procedure?

    So tonight is Zelda's second feeding with us. When I was preparing her first meal, the first pink I thawed for her cooked :rofl: because the water was to hot, so I threw it out and made a different one which she ate fine. But my methods for preparing dinner are WAAAYYY less than precise...

    We finally got our snake

    So I would like to present Zelda. :dancer: We got her from Kathy this morning at Repticon. We were there first thing when the doors opened. Kathy is very nice and went through all of the snakes that she had brought up with us. It is kind of funny because my daughter had been SURE that she...

    Plastic/Sterilite viv's tell me more

    So our tank is all set up and running well and so I thought great I get to relax a bit and take a little time off from all of the preparing we have been doing, but then my MIL dropped a bomb shell when she asked me "what are your plans for hurricane season?", certainly it sounded like an...

    How cold is OK for the cool side?

    So we have had our tank set up for a couple of days, we are tracking temps and such to make sure everything is running properly for when we get our snake. I think that for beginners we have done pretty well. The first day I got a reading of 89 and then 90 at the surface and hotter under the...

    Snakes at the Zoo/Cobra shed pics

    First, I hope it is ok to post this here, it didn't seem like it fit in the field herping section, but obviously it isn't about corn snakes so the photo gallery wasn't the right place either, if it is the wrong place could someone let me know. Thanks Ok so we went to the zoo last week, and got...

    Lots of Questions Thermometer/tape/hygiene/reptile show

    As many of you might know (or maybe not), we are going to be getting our first snake in about 6 weeks maybe longer depending on what ends up being available. We have read a couple corn snake books and have really been trying to prepare in advance in hopes that this preparation will you know...

    We found a Tiny Turtle

    I was just walking in the yard when I noticed this little guy. We brought him inside just long enough to snap these pics. We are pretty sure that he or she will get much larger because we have seen similar but much bigger versions of him in the yard before. One pic is a close up and one is...

What we want to do is put the screen into the frame and then cut 2 custom...
