Hey all!!!
Been a little while since I was on here, been a busy month! Anywho, just thought Id share a shot of Picasso my rescue male ambilobe that some of you may remember me posting about about a month ago.
He's doing fantastic! all the bumps on his body have shed off and the ones on...
It's been a hard road but I think my little guy is finally over the "hump". He's well into his fist full shed since I brought him home, most of the body sores have disappeared and the bigger ones on his face have scabbed completely over.
He's even begun (very slowly:) to loose a little...
So when I was cleaning my female leopard geckos container the other day I couldn't help but think to myself "wow, that's a big urate..."
As soon as I went to pick it up was pleasantly surprised to find it definitely wasn't a giant urate but a big fat egg!
Reason I was so surprised is I've...
Hey all!
So, i'm starting to suspect my little rescue male, Takini, is a bit older then the kid I got him from had told me.
Supposedly he's only 2 years old but I swear when I look at him moving around and whatnot I can't help but feel like I'm looking at an old man.
Is there anyway to...
I've been thinking about the old days of reptile shows lately and was just wondering what everyones favorite reptile was to go see at the old shows?
I remember as a kid always being SUPER excited to see the big gaboon vipers and adult cobras. They scared the crap out of me but I was...
So I went to hamburg yesterday and I can't tell you how....disappointed I was. This was the first show I went to in probably 6 years so was incredibly excited. I had my 6 month old daughter with me for her first show as well as my hubby-to-be. I was really into the hobby when I was younger but...
Hey all!!!
Just thought I'd give a little update on my little Takini who many of you remember as poor little Picasso.
Anyway, he's doing superbly! All the sores on his body have all but healed over and disappeared. The ones on his nose unfortunately were almost healed but must have gotten...
Hey all:)
So I've been keeping beardies for quite a long time but my one male has me stumped right now. I've been raising this pair of beardies since they were hatchings together and just tonight separated them for the first time because they're pretty much both adults now and wanted to breed...
Hey all, I'm looking to trade any/all the following for a panther,chameleon supplies, or caging. I'm more of a lizard girl and these guys are just to big (or will be) for me. Lemme know whatcha got! Can meet at the upcoming Hamburg show
1.0 cbb LARGE adult bolivian BCA. Gorgeous snake...
Well, here's some pics I took just a little bit ago while my little guy was sleeping. He woke up for his face shot but fell back asleep as I snapped a few more. You can see how much better the bumps on his face are getting, they look wet because of the mister just going off a couple minutes...
Well, finaly got Picasso to the vet. The vet said he couldn't for sure tell me right then exactly how he came to be covered in these bumps but said he believed Picasso was suffering from basically a whole lot of abscesses.
He said a whole bunch of stuff about it all probably stemming from the...
So I know some of you know about my little Picasso and the horrible ordeal he's been healing from. Well, yesterday it was really sunny so I took him outside for some sun and as he was moving around on my hand rubbed his side (not on purpose) on my thumb and the, what I thought were sores, on his...
Well, Picasso is doing so well I'm wondering if I should even put him through the stress of packing him up and going to the vet next week. It's about an hour ride in the car one way. All the sores look like they're healing up really well (and fast), the swelling is gone in his feet and even the...
So so so glad to have found this site, what a wonderful place! I've been keeping reptiles for over 10+ years now and have had quite a few chams throughout but when I found out I was pregnant August of last year I kinda put my beloved hobby on hold to put all my energy into having my first child...
I've asked a couple times in my other posts but haven't gotten a response yet so trying again:)
Was wondering if I could add some pedialite to Picasso's water supply to give him a boost in electrolytes to aid in his healing? He's doing so so much better but is still a tad weak and sleeping a...
He's doing so good! I snapped some pics right when he was waking up this morning, was looking better then ever! So so happy, thanks so much for all the great advice and support guys, especially being so new to this forum. Still going to the vet next week and hopefully he'll tell me what Im now...
So today is the 3rd day since I brought poor Picasso home and already looks 100% better. The sores look to be healing and the 2 huge ones that are on his face have shrunk dramatically from 3 days ago. When I got up this morning and turned his daytime lights on he was already awake, alert and...
Alright....I picked this poor guy up yesterday. He was listed for sale on my local craigslist site and looked nice and healthy in the pics so went for a ride to check him out in person and this was what I found. I couldn't in good conscience leave him there for some other inexperienced keeper to...
