I started doing this a couple years ago… A couple times a year i do a major trim on trees and bamboo, a mulberry tree specifically. so i pile up the branches in his enclosure and he just bulldozes through them. I also hide little snacks in the pile of branches for him to find, like a couple...

not sure why it didn’t attach when i posted, but here’s a current picture too. not that you can see anything helpful lol but taking care of some trimmings off a cucumber vine.

so i was doing some pruning around the enclosure and she always follows me around for the snacks. Most plants i keep in my yard are edible to a degree and she happily munches on the trimmings. So i turn around at one point and look over and see her sort of reared up on the front legs back legs...

just sharing and update of Luisa since she finally got a name and I’m relatively certain she is female haha! She is full time outdoor and has 3 ‘pastures’ i rotate for her grazing. Very mild winters here but she has a heated space when needed. I will get some better photos soon, but foot for...

It's that time of year when temperatures drop in outdoor enclosures. The enclosure I have for my redfoot has a house that is temp controlled for cold weather but it is partially buried and covered with a bunch of rocks to help hold heat so it's a pain to disassemble to confirm she went inside...

I identified it as a box turtle and almost 90% a gulf coast. I told him to maybe find a place to release...

Long story short i have 3, 8 month old babies. When i went to obtain the 1 hatchling i planned on keeping the seller had 3 and was not taking appropriate care of them... dry, signs of pyramiding, lettuce diet, tiny enclosure, etc. I made the choice to take them all from him and maybe I should...

I agree with Rosemary on the ID of both. And neither are toxic

Those controllers work well; they are great for a single, small-medium enclosure and have a great price point. As you mentioned the bayite controllers, they make more sense if you need to control temps in a much larger enclosure and will be pulling high watts which is why they cost more. They...

yeah that’s 100% oxalis. Be careful when you dig because it grows from these crowns of tubers/bulbs and when you put pressure on them they will disintegrate into many tiny pieces, each one capable of growing a new plant. they’re a nightmare to get rid of, but digging is really the only option in...
