Well because this is the introduction form ill start out by introducing myself I guess.
My names Ben I like in Massachusetts I like to surf snowboard and ski (A little better at Skiing). I will work as part of a "Zoo Crew" this sumer and love animals. I have a 8 Month old bearded Dragon named Arya who has been fighting Hookworms and Coccidia for 3 months and is finally rid of the worms and has a lower count of coccidia.
Ive been trying to get my parents to let me get a corn, I'm pretty sure they will give in, just gotta be patient. My dad is indifferent and thinks their cool and my mom thinks there "Boring" "Gross" and "Creepy" but she said that about my dragon and now she likes it.
I have been looking around at breeders and have Emailed one, PMed another and Just look at a bunch. The one I emailed is all out and haven't got the PM back. I just recently Checked out Kathy Loves website and like her Okeetee's.
Can youTell me if this setup is good?
-20 long
-2 heat pads. One on hot side and one on the wall of the cool side at lowest setting.
-Hot end temps 84-87. Cool 73-76
-Substrate is paper towels and will switch to aspen as the snake gets older.
-1 rock cave on the warm side and going to get either a log or a plastic cave thing to make a humid hide.
-1 water bowel
-1 lock for the top
-1 digital thermomiter
- Months of research on my part.
Anything missing or need to be changed?
Can anyone answer a few questions?
What is better F/T or Live mice?
Are Mice or rat pinks better?
Do corns get parasites other then mites?
Is there any sicknesses that are common that may need vet attention? (my mom thinks it will be like my dragon 3 vet visits 4 fecals and $600 later finally on the road to healthy living)
Will it ever need a bigger tank? A 40 breeder will be empty in a few months once I move my dragon to a bigger tank.
Do I gutload or supplement the mice/rats (like with rep-cal calcium or vitamins)?
Do I bath the snake and how often or do I just have water in their?
Do I need to mist it?
And my last question is if anyone is or knows a breeder that has Sunglows, Molteys, Hypos, Okeetees, Bloodreds, Candycanes or anything of red/orange coloration Left from the '06 season?
Thanks for any questions you answer, Off to look at snakes and work on my parents letting me get one, (they will).
