Basin's Amphibians

[basin79]

If you ever have trouble with your amphs throwing up earthworms, it might be because some of them have bristles that help them move through holes. You can feel those especially on nightcrawlers if you hold them kind of tight and they try to crawl. I've had amphs throw them up before, I think the bristles can be irritating to their gut when they are trying to crawl around in there. I'm gonna get me some tigers again some day. btw found a good pic of earthworm bristles.

You can feel the bristles easily when you handle the worms. Stheno has been on them for months and never had any issues. Can't see Euryale having either but appreciate the heads up.

I wanted to get a "natural" pic of Stheno. Ideally I wanted to catch her walking out from under her plants. No chance.
