Soooooo, a new store opened up near by house, specializing in fish and reptiles. Of course, I had to stop by. The owner was really cool and took me back to see the snakes, letting me handle some hatchling corns and Texas rats. Then he was like, "Oh, you'll love this guy. This is Casper," and...

My guinea pig died last night. He was pushing 6, so he lived a long life. He did not seem to suffer, as just a few hours before he passed he took an apple slice with his usual gusto. My mom found him around 7pm under his water bottle, with his teeth hooked on the cage wires, as if he went to...

How about some black and gold??? :D A few others of my two '09's: The anery girl from Silvergrin, tipping the scales at almost 60g (fatty, lol) :

How do I get them to where I need them in a tub, since a red bulb or ceramic heat emitter aren't an option? I'm experiment... I ran my heat cable along the side of one of my tubs (corn not inside ATM) and I've cranked it up, but it's still sitting at 74.4* F... I need the 80's... and this heat...

...looks like another continent! These pics really don't do it justice, but check it out! The scale looks off on this one... that ledge of ice is about 10' tall, I would guess. Ice flows... Rocks about 4' tall, icicles like 18" or so. Actually, almost everything is larger than in...

So, my roommate and best friend on campus went abroad for this coming semester, and the school went ahead and filled the vacancy in my room. So, of course, I email the new roommate asking if she would mind the snakes, because I would never want somebody to have to live with an animal they're...

Please... What tubs do you use for adults and juvies? Brand and model, if you don't mind.

I've become extremely interested in the this species... I have really been wanting a python, something with that thicker body and elegant head shape, but I can't really anything much bigger than a corn (and I'm not into the BPs right now). The Antaresia pythons seems perfect, particularly...

So, I was away for the weekend. No big deal, give the snakes lots of fresh water, check the temps one last time, and I'm good to go. I come back today and go to give Lafayette, my relatively newly acquired gold dust mot his new water dish... and lo and behold, his viv is WIDE OPEN, gaping at...

Hey guys. My dad is a very handy guy and he said he would make a nice wooden box hide for Amadeus (the big boy) if I gave him the dimensions and found out what woods were considered safe. Knowing that pine and cedar are not safe for bedding, should I assume they are off the list for building...

So the mutt was over do for a grooming... Tell me what you think of Mackenzy's new do. ;) Before: And after: And now, a few others from our off leash run today, including two VERY rare and VERY beautiful sight hounds... Aisha, the dessert bred Saluki... she is straight from Israel...

Got this little guy from Terri (crackerhead). He actually came all the up from Bayou Reptiles. I'm really digging the broken stripe he's got - love it! I'm planning on pairing him with my '09 Anery het Butter ph motley I got Silvergrin earlier when they're both old enough. Without further ado...

Pics: And this scale just flaked off while I was handling him... His energy and appetite are normal, and there are no issues elsewhere on his body. I did spill his water bowl without knowing it, and for about a day his viv was extremely humid (doh). This was about a week ago. But he's been...

...and got weights! The '09 from Silvergrin went from just under 10g on 8/19, to 13.5g today. That little girl can EAT. :D The '06 got his first weight ever, and came in at 374g. Can anyone tell me if the '06 is at an appropriate weight? I realize it's not cut and dry, but I think he was...

If you have any of the snakes listed to show off as adults, I would love to see them... trying to decide here... All will work genetically with my female; but who knows, I may never be able to breed, so I also want to have a pretty pet that I will enjoy regardless of whether I'm able to breed in...
