Re: Baby boa hasnt eaten!!!

What did the breeder say he was feeding the boa? I wouldn't handle it at all until the reptile begins feeding and has taken at least 3 meals with you. I don't think it's much to worry about bc the...

Re: Hatchling retic not eating

Well, it's great that the breeder won't release the animal until it's feeding on a regular basis. That is the right thing to do. I would still want info into what type of prey is being offered. Also,...

Re: Respiratory Infection Concern

Re: New to the forum

Gorgeous reptiles! All of them. Glad Milton was still chillin' in the enclosure. Be wary of putting the garters in the same enclosure with the milksnakes bc they ( milks) are ophiophagus meaning they...

Re: Wild-caught vs. Captive-bred

Well, wild caught reptiles may be useful in short term educational programs and seminars. Especially when the audience is children or youngsters. They are also nice to observe for short periods of...

Re: Reptile Basics "Customer Service"

I've never used Vivarium Electronics models at all. I only use Herpstats so I would refer you to Spyder Robotics who may be of some help. They feed on questions about thermostats. The other referral...

Re: first anaconda , scales look weird

Great. Let's see what becomes of the scaling issue after the shed. I would keep the animal on moist paper towels until at least after the shed.

Re: Adult corn snake suddenly very hyper

Consider putting in boxed hides that the animal can crawl into and curl the whole body into. Offer a meal after two or three days. Don't handle the animal or change anything once the secure hides are...

Re: Adult corn snake suddenly very hyper
