I am planning my trip to South Carolina for the end of the month and was wondering if there was anything I should try to go see while I am down there. I am going to be in Hilton Head (as far south as you can go without being in Georgia), any suggestions within about 30 miles of Hilton Head would...
Hi all, sorry its been so long since I have posted (medical stuff sucks).
Just wanted to announce that Karma my 10 - 12 month old Veiled just laid her first clutch. She had dug like three pilot holes and I was getting worried but hen this morning I checked her camera and saw she was much...
I used to keep Boas, my rule was 1 foot of human (adults) for every foot of snake. I applied this every-time I interacted with my snakes. Also made sure to have a spray bottle of vinegar (makes snakes release grip) available, lucky I never had need of it.
Now that I am stuck using a walker or...
Well yes it is easy to breed the flies, but you will have to deal with that extreme bad odor (the maggots give it off to avoid being eaten). Basically you would need to culture them, take a scoop of maggots into a container let them pupate into flies then feed them off. House flies will eat...
It really depends on your willingness to keep or raise other feeders.
I currently use these for my Chameleons:
Crickets - 500 to 1000 (bought in bulk)
Dubias - Colony is between 3000 and 4000(I breed these cause they are easy and have next to no smell)
Red Runners - Colony is between 2000 and...
The best way to set this up is to cover 3 sides with plastic (Right, Left, and Back). leave the door and top as screen. You will also need a water collecting system at the bottom (I use plastic trays). Then place the mister nozzle in one of the front corners and aim it towards the middle of the...
Looks to be a species of earthworm. It hard to ID which one from those images since its so small, also knowing where the plant was grown and were the potting soil cam from would help.
This link might help.

Water crystals are none toxic and bio degradable, so they should pass with no effect if ingested in small quantities. The only real risk I could think of is slight dehydration, but they would have to eat lots of them (dry).
Since they are squishy and slippery when wet impaction shouldn't be...
I'm lucky the tap water in my town isn't to bad. I've been running mine for like 5 months with no problems. I do plan on getting a filter soon (If I ever remeber) since I am keeping Dart frogs now as well.
When mine fall they just grab an egg crate and rite themselves. Any place they fall from should be within a short grab of an egg crate (or whatever you are using).
I would wait till after her first infertile clutch to breed her. Most posts I have read say they will be about 1 year old when they start laying. As for her weight that would depend on her size, I keep records of all my animals weights to determine if they are under their healthy weight.
I put my heat pad on the bottom, the temperature on the bottom of my tub reaches about 100 degrees the air about 1 " off the ground (in the egg crates) is about 90 degrees, then it gets colder (down to about 75 Degrees) as you move up to the top.
