  1. I keep leps and beardies on sand or grit and have had no trouble at all with the adults. I don't raise the young on it tho, not thru any bad experiences but because I don't have the guts to risk it yet...only things I have witnessed have trouble with ingesting substrate are jackson's chameleons when they are raised on tea tree. Have never seen a beardy choke on a food item larger than the gap between its eyes either.....
  2. 100w elstein and 100w basking spot- elstein on 24/7, basking spot 14 hours a day. uv tube, 30W also on 14 hours a day. Way cheaper to run than fish, maybe $6 week max.

  5. Have some hatchlings avail. not for sale but will swap for interesting animals or diff blood lines. Barbata Dragons and Leopard Geckos. PM me pls.
  6. just watch the salt content, but as u said not part of the staple diet so not a worry.
  7. I'd get two anacondas, but they might eat my harlequin geckoes
  8. maybe get a cheap hutch so that you can supervise it, even 30mins a week will do wonders, nothing like natural sun.
  9. get an outdoor cage, they love the sun. No need to keep them indoors. Will even handle winter no heat.
  10. A blonde goes to her local pet store in search of an 'exotic' pet. As she looks about the store, she notices a box FULL of live frogs. The sign says: 'SEX FROGS' :bounce: Only $20 each! Comes with 'complete' instructions. The girl excitedly looks around to see if anybody's watching her. She whispers softly to the man behind the counter, 'I'll TAKE one!' As the man packages the frog, he quietly says to her, 'Just follow the instructions! The blonde nods, grabs the box, and is quickly on her way home. As soon as she closes the door to her apartment, she opens the instructions and reads them very carefully. She does EXACTLY what is specified: 1. Take a shower. 2. Splash on some nice perfume. 3. Slip into a very sexy nightie. 4. Crawl into bed and place the frog down beside you, and allow the frog to do what he has been trained to do. She then quickly gets into bed with the frog and to her surprise . . . NOTHING happens! The blonde is very disappointed and quite upset at this point. She re-reads the instructions and notices at the bottom of the paper it says, 'If you have any problems or questions . please call the pet store.' So, she calls the pet store. The man says, 'I'll be right over.' Within minutes, the man is ringing her doorbell. The blonde welcomes him in and says, 'See, I've done everything according to the instructions. The damn frog just SITS there!' The man . . . looking very concerned, picks up the frog, stares 'directly into its eyes' and STERNLY says: 'LISTEN TO ME!! I'm only going to show you how to do this ONE ... MORE ... TIME!!!'

  14. 2008 - Year of the Frog Frogs are becoming extinct. The main goal of this campaign is to generate public awareness and understanding of the amphibian extinction crisis & to raise funds for AZA (Association of Zoos and Aquariums) amphibian conservation efforts.

  15. they are not giants- stripes on giants are not as regular and do not come onto dorsal surface. also giants that size do not school together typically.
  16. if you have a look at western springs near the scupture of the person standing on its head on top of two other people- near the lily pond. There are some very large thick bodied huntsman spiders that are very aggresive- have a look under the basalt rocks under the tea tree. Don't get bitten and watch out for the ranger, also do not put in container together as they will kill each other. They look like tarantulas 8)
  17. ive got nits....they are arachnids I think 8)
  18. eyes don't though....red eyes on black frog would be cool.
