There was a guy that rescues and relocates wild snakes on Tiktok that was called to a house to pick up a very beautiful and well cared for panther. The guy said it was just crawling around the neighborhood. They are making efforts to find the owner. I put a comment on there for him to post it...
I've been looking around at different plant lists and all I can find is that Jasmine is ok, but is all Jasmine ok? I have a pink climbing Jasmine I'd like to use in his free range area but want to know its safe first. Anybody have some info on Jasmine?
I'm not sure that putting it in the enclosure with your cham is a good idea, given the fact that approximately 200 baby mantis is a lot. I'm not positive but I'm thinking that even as tiny as they are at first, they will not be eaten all at once. Thus leaving them free to roam the enclosure for...
Sharpie has different types of hisses, depending on what point it is he wants to get across. Like if he is actually pissed and you need to back off, his hiss is long, aggressive, and comes from deep in his chest. If he is not mad, however, not amused and maybe slightly irritated, it is softer...
I think it is important to respect his territory. Sharpie, my veiled, was a lot younger when I got him so this may or may not work as well but this is what I felt made the biggest difference for us.
I never reach in and grab him. Only exception to that was 1× for a vet visit we were going to...
My 3 yr old veiled has not pooped in almost 3 weeks. I took him in to see his vet 5 days ago and she said that I was doing everything right, he appears to be very healthy, I know how well they hide illness though. The only thing she suggested I change was the brand of multi vitamin I use. She...
After 3 failed attempts, a bit too much money & months of confusion & frustration, I think I am just about finished building his new home. It has screen top & sides but the frame is kiln-dried pine. I am having a hard time figuring out what would provide enough protection for the wood so that I...
I believe that most of them say right on the package that you should remove plants, birds & even fish. I might be mistaken. We did a bomb last yr but I removed him, his cage, his mister and everything he comes in to contact with regularly. Its no doubt a whole lot of work, but I know I'd much...
I've done both the bake & the soak. I found if they are green branches- recently cut- they sometimes get sticky and almost to smooth for his sharp little nails to grip on to well when wet from misting. However, if they are already a bit dried out this is my preferred method. When I used the...
When my guy wouldn't go for 3 or 4 days I would get worried & stick him in the shower for 10-15 mins. If he didn't go while he was in there he would the min I get him back to his cage. Now days I just make sure he showers about 3×'s a week, on top of reg daily mistings of course, and he doesn't...
Your doing awesome with this cage & have some great ideas. To add a little food for thought... I used a shower curtain at first too. It worked ok. I later discovered vinyl sheeting, you can get it just about anywhere that carries weather seals/plastic sheeting for doors & windows. Its about $10...
A little off the subject but if your able to get him out of his cage easily & you have a safe plant outside of his cage that he can kinda chill out on for a few mins. you might try doing that when you are doing stuff to his cage. I have a 2 yr old that I've had from 2 months, I always take him...
I'm not 100% sure on this so you would prob want to look into it a little before deciding to use it but somewhere I read boat or marine wax. I know nothing about the stuff, but it will obviously hold up with all the misting & such.
I got my baby boy, a veiled cham, from them 2 yrs ago next week. When he arrived, in Oregon the day after being sent out, he was 2 1/2 months old, 3 1/2" long & weighed in at 4 grams, tiny but healthy as could be. He turned 2yrs old last month, he's now 21 1/2" long & 285 grams - roughly, its...
Thanks. All very help info. I did look at the outlet and the fixture. The outlet looks fine. The fuxture, a zoo med deep dome, did have some dark almost powdery residue where the bulb screws in. I plan on looking at the breaker tomorrow, figure out what is going to where & guess go from there...
