Hi all,
It has been awhile since we have posted, things have been crazy lately. Sadly we lost one of your female panthers recently, and we decided to immortalize her by articulating her skeleton. The first step is cleaning the bones. We considered many different options and decided that...
Hi all!
Long time no post :) We both finally have a weekend off together and decided it has been way to long since we posted about any of our crew. A few months ago we had a friend in a hard space and had to take their male veiled, well as is always the issue, we ran out of cage space...
So Stacy and I figured we would have a crack at some cages of our own. We took a long time but are very happy with the results.
As we bring in little ones for some rehab we wanted to use a material that is easy to clean and strip. So we made the cages from PVC 1x2 and Fiberglass window...
This is a cautionary tail (pun intended)....
Female veiled, 8 months old, 3.5 inches (yes, correct units) nose to vent, 13 grams. Owners unable to care for so relinquished to us. The absolute worst case of nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism (MBD) I have ever seen. She is being...
We had everyone out while we cleaned cages today, thought some pics might be nice :)

Here it is another wonderful weekend, sitting on the back porch with some of the chams getting some sun. Which is most likely a good thing i think my pasty legs may be blinding passing cars.
Hope everyone else is enjoying their weekends. I know my chams and I are.

Hello all
We have a wonderful little Veiled boy up for adoption. He was taken in by us in so so shape from a guy who was leaving the state. There is a bit of a post about our efforts to get him up to health and ready for a new home. There are many pictures in the gallery linked in our...
Well.....here we are again, with two female panthers. We have a partial back story. The guy got a job traveling and wasn't able to take proper care. They are both around 1 1/2 years we think. 24grams and 29 grams. Good grips but emaciated and dehydrated, though between the amount they drank...
Came home and found our little girl all colored up again, but this time i got some pics. I love the vast color changes these amazing little guys are capable of. To bad my camera isn't picking up the Blues running the ridge of her back. Hope you all enjoy.
Hello all,
Yesterday we were able to help two white lipped tree frogs, they came with a very interesting enclosure. The enclosure was in need of an overhaul/cleaning so we transferred the froggies into a temporary tank and I started cleaning away. After I got it all cleaned out I was...
So the other day i am playing with the dog on the floor. We take a break so she can catch her breath, after all she is a bit old and chubby for a pug. I looked over at one of the book cases and saw this..

Hi all,
Since Laurie graciously adopted Rhino, our jackson rescue, we had a bit of extra space to help out another cham. So today we acquired this little man. His previous owners were moving and were unable to "sell" him so we took him in as they were on their way out of town. He...
Well we brought home another rescue, this time it is a T. Jacksonii. He is in pretty bad shape but we have faith not so bad as to not live. He has one hell of a grip and when first inspected was very alert.
Gathered information from previous "handler" and i use that term loosley...
Hi all,
I am currently in my second year of vet school and plan to specialize in reptiles and amphibians. Today some classmates and I were discussing the human/animal bond and what qualities we think are essential for a good vet. If you could pick your perfect Vet, what qualities would...
Hi all,
I was going through some photos and found this series of pics from my male leopard gecko's second abscess surgery last year, thought you may be interested :) He was a rescue with a recurring retrobulbar and subq abscess. this was the second time we had to go in and debride it. He...
