I found a cheap 52oz jug of the stuff on Amazon. I plan on being set for life now.

That's kind of what I assumed, it's been teens and single digit temps around here lately.

Funny thing is, he was free handing it all day yesterday and it never moved. He thought it was dead. Kept it in a plastic ziplock bag for the past 24 hours. Today he showed me it, and it was moving around, making attempts to run away, and even attempted to sting the pen I was using to try to...

We live in Illinois, about 45 minutes east of St. Louis. My brother works at Wal Mart and found this in the back receiving area. Any idea what type it is? Wary of handling it as one of the few things I know about scorpions is that smaller claws typically means more dangerous.

I was actually surprised to see a Petco in Souix Falls selling a juvie C. fasciata. The petco here seems to take decent care of their animals. I've yet to see any really unhealthy animals (herps, amphibians, or arachnids). Buying super worms or meal worms, though, that's a waste of time...

I don't really consider a Tegu a "medium" sized lizard, but I do consider it one of the coolest pets there is. Insanely tame, far more tame than any other lizard (including a bearded dragon) I have ever owned. They're very active and curious. If mine is out of his cage, he'll often walk...

Lately, I noticed one of my hissers had a bunch of white (almost clear) babies hanging out of it. They have legs, they don't seem to be moving, and they're all still attached to each other. Would that be the mother removing them due to stress? I recently tried to heat the tank and I guess I...

That just seems like a dumb risk. I have no problem with feeding furry animals to your spiders, but it'd only take one bite from the mouse to fatally injure your spider. If someone wants to risk it, more power to you. I'll stick to smaller or pre-killed. I'm not going to tell anyone to do...

B. Smithi doesn't need much moisture at all. Keep it dry, even paper towels will work for the time being. Keep a water dish in there and replace it fairly often. If the water dish is the only moisture in the cage, the mites will start to appear in the dish. They'll drown in the dish...

Never owned H. minax, so I can't comment on that. H. maculata was really tame compared to any Usambara I ever owned. The Usambaras would literally lunge at anything. I even had them occasionally jump at any pair of tweasers I had in their cage. The H. maculatas I owned never showed a...

I had a breeder rat escape once, I dove after it with my hemostats (It was under an unmovable shelf--I couldn't reach with my hand, and nor would I want to, I would have lost my finger.) and came back with only the tail (About an inch or two). Well, it escaped anyways, but I cought it a...

You can't link to stuff on your hard drive. You have to upload it to the net, or just use attach.

I don't know. You live in Oregon, so I doubt you can keep it outside. So are you able to build a pond in your house? I've always been against the idea of anyone owning Crocs of any sort. They're even worse than going out and buying a large monitor of some sort. Granted, there...

It's an Argentine Black and White Tegu. From what I've read, blues are just a subspecies of these. They have a lot more white in them. And a lot of people say they don't need any fruit (Black and whites and reds need fruit in their diet, if you can actually get them to eat it..) The only...

Heh, sorry guys. I guess I failed to check the review forums.

I've tried Monitors, I've tried Blue Tongue Skinks, I've tried Iguanas, I've tried Leopard Geckos, and I've even tried Rhino Iguanas. But nothing compares to the coolness of this guy. He's very curious, very tame, and just all around fun. (Obviously, some of the pictures aren't the...

I have no proof that it would be a bad thing to do, but I would definitely recommend even trying. For one, pinkies don't really have fully developed bones. I don't know how vital calcium is for snakes, but I'm sure a growing snake needs it. Two, I'm willing to bet money that after...

What he said. It's not a matter of Such-and-such Snake being a better killer. It's just a matter of safety. You could feed your animal live food all it's life and never encounter a problem. But then one day, you throw your mouse in and end up with a new pet mouse and a dead/dying...

How aquatic are Corn Snakes? Today, we were fishing in the Kaskaskia River (Southern Illinois) and we saw a snake sitting on the edge with it's head above water. Looking through the already brown water, the snake appeared light brown with darker brown blotches going down it's back. It...

I'm going to guess Discoids also. http://www.angelfire.com/oh2/Roaches/
