I'm surprised no one has linked this yet, but there's a thread on the BOI regarding possible a zoonotic disease (Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis) from Rodent Pro feeders. I've never had a problem with feeders from RP, but after seeing how they're handling (or not handling, rather) this concern...

I loaned some of my mice out to a pet store for a charity event... when they were returned, my babies were absolutely infested with mites and the adults had a few on them as well. Two of the babies died last night. I'm keeping the mice in a separate room from my snakes and my other mice and...

When I hang out with cs.com people, i somehow end up with more snakes! Went to the reptile show in cincinnati and came home with 4 snakes... in my defense, one is temporary (going to a friend once it's an established feeder) and one was free... oh, and one was marked $50 but I got it for $20...

One of my mice had babies yesterday, so this morning I thought I'd give my strawberry a pinky since he missed his last feeding due to shedding. He ate. For grins and giggles, I decided to give one to my favourite non-feeder, the anery cube... She ate. So I tried another, the butter.. she ate...

Just wondering how everyone euthanises their feeders... freezing, co2 chamber, dry ice, cervical dislocation? What's the best way to dispatch small numbers? Right now I only have one male and 3 females and 9 babies..got a few weeks before the babies are grown up to the size I need, just...

I'm thinking about getting a rosy boa... but I can't find two websites that say the same thing as far as temperatures go! :blowhead: What temps do you keep your rosies at? Do different localities require different temperatures? Also, are they picky eaters like the sand boas or more consistent...

(including a couple of non-corns, forgive me :P) First are the Long Term Residents: Brendis, an unsexed Bloodred 2011 Diallo, 09 normal motley (my first corn and first experience with nonfeeders!) Imara, 2010 hypo het sk :devil01: Rocky, 2010 granite (being shy) Steele, 2010 amel...

I've been feeding rat pups (~30g each) to my kingsnake, but I'm not sure I like the way he's putting on weight with them and I'm not sure I like the price of ordering more :P I can get a bag of 25 30g chicks for under $7... are chicks a healthy foodsource for kings? I know kings are dumpsters...

I was told I should post a thread about having a little CS.com get together at the show, followed by lunch. Any takers? (Alternatively, I have promised some members fried mushrooms and pickles back at my place after the show, but I live a fair distance away)

I have an 07 Kenyan Sand Boa that's got me a little stressed out. She's only eaten twice this year... 1/5 and 4/11, but she's only lost 4 grams since 12/6. She's currently 100g. I think part of the current problem is I brought home a male KSB on 4/10. The first two weeks he was home, she...

As y'all are starting to have your first pips of the season, I wanted to put out there that I'll be taking in non-feeders this year and trying to get them eating. I just set up a rack that will hold 12 babies at a time and have received all my syringe-feeding supplies if it comes to that. I can...

I wandered out to the barn this morning to check on something and my brain started piecing together things I saw laying on the floor. It's nothing special, but it's the first project i've done on my own since shop class in middle school! I plan on taking in some non-feeders this season and...

A kid purchased a corn snake without permission from his mom... he was unable to hide it from her and when she found out, she was quite mad and got rid of it. I took it in :D She (not sexed, just seems like a girl) was 22g when I got her.. ate 2 pinks last sunday and today is blue!

I know there's been talk in bearded dragon forums about linoleum being unsafe for flooring due to the potential to off-gas... I wonder if it would be okay to do the back/walls of a snake viv though since there isn't such intense heat and no heat-source would be projecting directly onto it. I...

This guy has been at my store since april and has gone from a teeny little worm to a nice hefty two-footer... and I felt bad seeing him in the little 5gal enclosure we had for him. Today was employee appreciation day, so I got an extra 30% off of him (he was already 30% off his normal...

I'm aware of the normal regurge protocol, but this situation is a bit different. My little 4g non-feeder amel, Celia, ate a hamster pink for the first time on her own 48 hours ago. She had previously been fed tails and syringe-fed. Today there was a stinky regurge :( I'm planning on waiting...

I've been thinking about delicious foods that were discontinued. What I wouldn't give to have some of them back... Sweet Spots - shortbread cookies with a hershey's kiss on top DooDads - snack mix similar to chex mix but with much more spice and crunchy little cheese logs Original chex mix...

This little guy has been hanging out in my livingroom for about 6 months now. I've seen him molt a few times. Anyone know what he is? His back pattern reminds me of a tailbone.

Is there any way to get a musky snake to stop? There's a really sweet california king at work. He's calm, doesn't mind being handled, good eater, etc. The only problem is that EVERY time i get him out, he musks. Sometimes it's almost right away, sometimes it's after he's been out a few...

Can't believe there isn't a thread about this already? (maybe there is, but i didn't find it using the search function) What are you going to be for halloween? I have to work in the afternoon, so I won't have time to dress up. Therefore, I'll be dishing out the candy dressed as a PetSmart...
