need a very hungry pet

[xchondrox]

why dont you just sell your extras most petstores pay for them
not much usually $35 for 100 or something like that

Check the classifieds! $26 for 150 shipped, good deal!

I have the following animals that are all great eaters.


2.1.0 African bullfrogs aka Pyxie frogs
0.0.1 Tiger Salamander
1.0.0 Pacman frog


Planning on adding another Pyxie in the near future.

I have bull frogs that hop to me for food they have voracious appetites

0.0.1 Tiger Salamander

Hey, tell me about these guys? Are they difficult? I love newts and salamanders and axolotls and the like, but it seems almost everything I look at has to be kept *cold* or it'll drop. And it's easy to slap a heat source on a tank if your house is cold, but cooling a tank *below* room temperature seems to be a much bigger pain in the butt.

Just cook them up, there is a lot of bug recipes on the internet, cook them up and eat the extras. Lots of protein, and you can dip them in chocolate and feed them to unsuspecting co-workers ;P

I'm surprised that I am the first to suggest the obvious. I've seen those guys in action, and they are indeed very hungry.

Tiger sallies are simple I keep them like a pacman with out the heat source room temp is fine for mine and my room stays at around 83* Im not sure where you live but if bass fishing is big there you can prolly get larvae cheap from a bait shop then just increase heat and let water evaporate to coax it into morphing

I also keep mines in same type of setup as my frogs, eco-earth substrate with a waterbowl. It also eat as much as my frogs do too Mines the local variety we find here in Minnesota so I don't think they really need another heat source, I kept it all winter without it.



BTW I tried throwing in a few small baby Dubias into my Diamondback terrapins' tank and they just love'em, two more to the list of roach eating pets


Can't believe I forgot to list my male Tokay gecko too

Tiger Sallies are easy

Just keep em in moist dirt or co-co bedding. Dont even need a water dish. Just keep the dirt moist. Hell I keep mine in 5 gallon buckets in the closet with airholes drilled in the top lol.

I don't have enough tarantula's to keep my roach population in check and don't want to send the extras to the gas chamber. What can i get that will eat a lot of roaches?

Don't gas'em! I have an 8" T.Blondi that Ibrought home about 2 weeks ago & have been looking to start up some roaches. Crickets are not enough for her as she eats'em like skittles. They would also be good for my big C.Crawshayi & L.Parahybana.
I am only about 2.5 hrs away from Arlington but-if you really want something new,try the DFW Lone Star Reptile Expo. Its this weekend & almost in your backyard!
