    Little fella' doing GREAT.

    He doesn't eat THAT much, but eating is eating! Yesterday he had 2 cricks, today he had 6. All I need now is to ensure that he's drinking up water :) The only problem for me right now is maintaining humidity, looking into getting a low priced humidifier and i'm good to go. Any suggestions in...

    I recommend you change the hood top, and just go with a larger reptisun bulb because in the future you'll be needing a bigger bulb for the larger home anyways. Might as well save some money doing it! and i don't recommend coil, they're low wattage and they don't cover enough surface area, in...

    Little fella' doing GREAT.

    Just got my Blue Barred Ambilobe about 3 days ago. At first, he didn't eat until I covered 2 and a half sides and left him alone to eat. He didn't really move around much but now he's always somewhere new. I'm loving him, so cute! First day home...

    Reptarium in Ontario

    100 for that size USED is pretty expensive if you ask me.. I got a brand new 16x16x20 for 70 dollars. If you're lucky like my buddy, he got the 18x18x24 at a garage sale used for 40 bucks.

    How do you pick names

    Well, my upcoming cham was at first to be named AJ which are the initials of mine and my girl's name, but then decided to go with Tyson because I just love that name for some odd reason. :D
