That's great! Congrats. I wish I had that kind of dough for millipedes right now, but all of my spare cash is wrapped up in some skink projects right now. If you ever get a male and start breeding, let me know. Maybe I'll have more money by then :) good luck!

I believe you are correct. I can't find them for less than $100 anywhere these days. It's a shame. I used to keep dozens of them, and when I started to look into the millipede hobby again, I sure was shocked by the prices. :( wish I had kept my bunch rather than selling them off/letting them...

I kept certain isopods in with my AGBs and Desert millis years ago with no readily apparent issues.

Gorgeous animal! I have three hatchling three-toeds I'm raising up right now, amongst the other box turtles and tortoises in the yard.

Well, they definitely require some effort, research, and money, but they are so rewarding and adorable - in my opinion, it's totally worth it. Really, there are some reptiles and amphibians that are quite easy to take care of in comparison to others. Once you get the right setup and diet...

Normally, I don't purchase my pets at petco but I really couldn't pass on these guys. I got a Russian tortoise (obviously wild caught) for $28 and I got two hatchling red foot tortoises for $44 each. Really, they were excellent deals. Once these get through my reptile vet with a clean bill...

Great pictures, everybody! I love toads. I have a Bufo woodhousii that I've had for about 5 years now. I didn't realize Bufo marinus had been reclassified. I wonder why?

I started with about 50 from my backyard not too long ago, and I have about 1000 now. Extremely low maintenance - just keep them pretty much as people here are describing. They are very hardy.

Blue tongue skinks are some of the best pets I've ever had, period.

That is such an amazing setup for your guys. I love hermit crabs, and it's great to see that yours are being so beautifully cared for.

That's pretty nifty. I'm going to have to copy this!

Wow, you do have some beautiful lizards! Some of those are entirely new to me. Other than Mediterranean Geckos, I only have one Northern Blue Tongue Skink. I love him so much, haha. I'll edit this post with pictures later.

For the purposes of casual observation concerning snakes, I think "molt" and "shed" are interchangeable. Nonetheless, I had difficulty locating any sources - governmental, educational, or otherwise - that indicated there being any difference between a "shed" or a "molt" in snake terminology...

I think the general consensus will be that adding another species to the tank is usually not a good idea for several different reasons. It's simply not worth the many opportunities for risk that would be introduced into to the system. I know less about snakes than many on the boards, so I'm sure...

Simply amazing! I can't stop looking at the pictures! Now, why have I never found a pede in my area? :/

Thanks for the help!

Hello, The other night i found this guy running across my foot while I was brushing my teeth. In the process of capturing him, I discovered that he is extremely fast and extremely aggressive. I have had him in a jar for about two days now, and I gave him a cricket approximately the same size...

Gorgeous animal and great pictures! :drool:

Such a beautiful animal. I remember the days when I could go outside and find a box turtle. Alas, no more.

I agree with Chilobrachys completely. Neither crocs nor the big snakes should be kept as pets.
