I just want to warn everyone, this pet store is freezing there dead pinkies from breading cages and selling them as frozen feeders. Our snake just died from eating a rotten pinkie. Normally I would never buy from them but, feeder source was out when I went to repticon and the other stores I...
You know when you go to the store and buy a head of romanie, green leaf, red leaf etc. Well when you cut of the stem (or what ever that part is called) leave it so the heart is still intact. Put it in a dish of water and set it in the sun and watch your lettuce start to regrow! It will even...
Does anyone know if Wild Coffee(Psychotria nevosa) is ok to plant near my tort enclosure???
Its a native Florida plant and I can't seem to find anything about it in relation to be harmful or not to torts. Unless I hear otherwise I am going to keep it away from them though :]
So today I was doing some cleaning and letting little rex walk around when my stepson came outside. Rex is his favorite since she/he has and extra scute. Rex is smaller than my other two sulcata's so he asked "how do you know rex is growing?" I said "well you can tell since she's not as small as...
About a week ago I changed the substrate in my enclosures. I do a top soil/coco coir mix. Today I walk outside to feed and water them and there are these little weird mushrooms growing in the enclosures. About 2 inches tall and really skinny with little tops. There was also so fuzzy mold on some...
Hi guys, this morning I woke up to these really small mushrooms (about 2inches tall with really small tops) growing in both my enclosures. I just did a total substrate change. I use top soil mixed with coco coir and my enclosures are outside. There was also a very fine mold growing over some...
I just rescued a GTP from a friend of my brother. Its pretty agressive as its cage setup was terrible it didnt get fed regularly had no water available and was constantly taunted. It is getting adjusted pretty well, and is a beautiful snake :]
At lowes today I saw this plant, I am redoing my back yard with a new turtle pond and tortoise area as well as an area for the dogs. I saw this really interesting looking plant that I would love to put back there but does anyone know if the sullys can eat it???
Its called an "african...
I just took these RES's from a friend since my two adults died. They were in a pond outside under a tree with no direct sun light. Sometimes they were able to get out of the water and sometimes the water level would drop and they couldn't get out. I think this is shell rot??? Any help on what to...
First of all, let me say I think this is totally irresposible of the owner and this is not a video of mine. Second, I think its pretty hilarious that the tortoise fights back, "you bite my head, I bite your balls"
Enjoy :] :tort:

About a week ago I went into the new pet store down the street, The AllPets Emporium. I saw the sully hatchlings and they looked to be a little cold and dry. I couldn't find anyone to talk to about maybe changing that. I went back today and this is what I found, I'd like to know if there is any...
A few weeks ago, my step son and I went to chick-fil-a for lunch. We were on the way to my moms house for a visit and tortoise play date. So of course I am not going to leave Rex and Tiki in the car while I go in so I brought them inside with me in there travel container. I thought nothing of...
Ok, lately everytime I pick rex up to take him outside or bring him back inside, he pee's on me, like alot of pee! Its insane! Tiki doesnt do it as much but also does it sometimes. On the other hand the pee is very clear! So my question is, is it because of the warmth in my hand or are they...
Its so crazy to look at the pictures from when we first got our babies at 1 week old compared to pictures of them now and 8 weeks old! They look so different!
Hi everyone, I have some concerns about my little guys or girls
This is Tiki (left) and Rex (right) I am concerned about the difference between their shells, Rex just doesnt look the same as Tiki does. I have read about the extra scute being because of the high incubation temps and that...
Hello everyone, my name is Liz and I recently adopted the cutest little sulcatas! Rex and Tiki. I am trying to do as much research as possible to give these little guys, or girls the best life possible.
This is Rex, I am concerned if there is anything wrong since "his" shell looks much...
