Wow, you went through quite a ton with that piece. What did you get done?
As for the aftercare been working very hard to do exactly as my artist instructed. He did such a beautiful job I dont wanna screw it up, luckily I have a free touch up when I feel ready for it from him. Haven't picked...
Wow, I almost want to see that nerve in action! And 7 hours! I can't imagine going through that long, did you opt out of multiple sessions or was it just that big of a piece MissLissa?
For me getting this guy did hurt a lot, but right after he finished I was already thinking, 'Lets get another...
It was less than an hour actually.
And don't worry, I already expected tattoos to be covering my body haha just not limited to my leg.
I have a half back piece planned out, shoulders, half sleeve on the left upper arm and memorial tattoos on my right calf going up for my dogs.
Thinking of...
Thank you guys. I am happy with how it turned out, a little on the creepy side but still cute.
I am thinking on expanding it with each new species I work with.
Alright guys, I love this hobby so much and relate to these little guys very well.
Call me crazy but I decided my first tattoo would be a tribute to these creatures and wanted to share it with you all! Its not quite anatomically correct however I am so happy with the over exaggerated features.
Yay! How exciting, I love seeing the hatching pictures from everyone and you did a wonderful job getting in close and having the baby in focus (sorry photography habit to look that haha).
Congrats!
I am in Eagle River so he will be shipped out through Anchorage. Thank you for mentioning weather and how it will affect shipping. That is one of the only things I had not yet considered. I will keep an eye on it.
Thank you for the advise. I have looked into all of those options. If he goes on delta he will not be on the same plane as me. He will be shipped through a different flight. So I would not be able to talk with the crew in order to check on him.
Unfortunately since he is nearly two years old he...
Well folks we have run into a hiccup with my new plan.
So Ship you reptiles didn't mention before my initial posting (I didn't really ask either) that they are not providing a live arrival guarantee during this month due to a ton of Christmas packages clogging up FedEx and they can't promise...
Looks male due to the tail looking fairly straight and even all the way from the vent to the tip to me but I agree with Andee. Still young.
When you go under the chameleon breeding forum there is a topic that is a sticky on sexing baby panthers. Lots of pages of practice that will help you...
Alright you two, calm down. It can be done both ways on a veiled.
However, looking for a hemipenal bulge on a veiled is not worth the time with the obvious way as far as back tarsal spurs for determining sex goes. On panthers the hemipenal bulge is the only way you determine sex though.
Now...
Glad you are doing okay. Thalin and I both wish Cooper and you a speedy recovery.
I know you had a hard time with padre. Did the vet check to see if that happened a second time (sure hope not!) just to rule that out too?
Update:
Thank you everyone for your assistance in this matter.
After the recommendation of shipping him to a forum member down there before I leave I asked our very own ferretinmyshoes and she has graciously accepted to temporarily hold Thalin at her clinic for me for a day or so haha. (big...
Jann, do you think Dayna would let me send him to her. She was going to be his vet down there anyway and I trust her with him. Could pick him up on my way to fort Collins from Denver.
That is very smart. I know there is one keeper in fort Collins I could probably send him to. Just never spoken with them.
I spoke with Dez and she recommends turning the bag inside out and holding him on that hand on top of the bag then bring the edges up around him. No stuffing required.
I am flying delta which has strict policies that doesn't allow reptiles in the cabin however you can do them as checked baggage like I will have to do with my dog. I considered this, however I would have to find a wooden shipping box and find it hard to trust those who load the baggage.
I...
Thank you for the replies everyone. I will be moving to Northern Colorado, Fort Collins area specifically. Do not worry I have already contacted ship your reptiles many times (which is how I know FedEx is closed the day I needed to ship him and that he will need to be shipped down on the 4th of...
Thank you for the advise. I will give it a shot but to be honest it will be hard on us all (between me being a control freak and having to step back, thalin being on the more stand offish side and my dad not exactly being a bleeding heart) haha.
I will see what I can do though. Maybe get my...
Also I want to note I won't be the one to actually put him in the box as I will be in CO getting his new enclosure ready before he arrives due to FedEx not being open when I go down (the 31st).
So if you guys could also recommend how to do it in a way that my father can do it safely for both of...
If she has started to cut back on her food intake and has become restless I imagine she is almost ready to lay. Just keep the sand mixture moist and let her be. Its possible you trying to handle her while gravid and watching her constantly has her a little nervous about going to the bin and...
