are chickens nocturnal? ... they really do like to roam. geckos and most snakes probably feel very secure in a small space out of sight ..
-
Heating a rack? Heat tape, heat cable etc???
Insect Direct replied to reuben.a's topic in Reptiles and Amphibians
only briefly searched it last night .. seems some keepers do simulate night time/daytime temp. in my case probably better to heat at night and not during the day haha ... power saver :oops: not sure how cold they can tolerate but most keeping them at 80F to 90 F seems pretty toastie to me... -

Insect Direct replied to reuben.a's topic in Reptiles and Amphibians
so most people seem to provide geckos with 24/7 heat. does anyone let them cool down at night time? thoughts .. -
I agree the brown tree frogs don't like much water at all ... unless breeding. May also find them in the water more at night time being nocturnal. Makes me cringe when people only feed mealworms and flies.
-
those dish washers are a rare morph ... I could breed with one of them toads from research departments been rumoured to be in private hands for years ... yet to see any poof
-
was going to say add more water but that may be just what I am doing wrong .. too much. as I keep them in large body of water it's sort of a fish tank I also use to morph frogs lol cheers man ... may setup a proper enclosure for them but am down to my last pair and male starting to look off colour. :-? do wonder if mistifiying them helps though.
-
genius that. what is the mist cycle captain?
-
not sure exactly. sometimes find them under the cracked mud? but yeah same up here, dry at the mo and summer hasn't begun. dam algae down the river already too. the frogs seem to spawn in small temporary ponds eh. I often get males in my live food troughs that are trying to call in recruits. They're on a mission to spawn in every water body possible :lol: even when frosty
-
tried both and they sooner or later waste away.
-
true that's good to know. cheers.
-
They're in my backyard from time to time .. passing through I suspect. I hear them in the distance a lot. Not doing so well once indoors though so yeah could be slightly too warm.
-
As per title just curious if anyone on here has some experience with these... more so people who have successfully kept them for a number of years ... Seems they are prone to die out in captivity ...
-
Impressive. Is another world right there
-
crazy amount of diversity ... is this all native / locally collected?
-
wow that's a corker. (ps corker is not a morph) tempted to get some again ... must resist :nilly:
-
what an egg head ... not you Ira :bggrn:
-
I dunno about 'names of morphs' but the photos & animals seem to be gaining quality all the time
-
im sure I have a pic of a frog called leo some where haha
-
you must of been out of context :ske:
-
the ones I offered you (if I did, I cant remember, I offered them to a few ppl) were hardly deformed at all .. some of the best in thousands produced. most ppl think they look fine however i'm a perfectionist and know what their brethren's looked like so don't want to give ppl false hope. only had a small number otherwise would of offered you export quality prob just needed to add some calcium to the water.

want hi yellow ... get a frog :sml1:

some fishfarms routinely medicate prior to dispatch ... maybe the guy was just offering to do what he thought best? -
