I got this one sometime in 2009 and it has been great. I don't know what I paid for it at the time but it's been well worth whatever it was. There may be others out there, I haven't checked around.
Well, it's been a loooong time since I've posted but I've been reading and keeping up to date :) Turtle (Greek tort) is doing great thanks to you guys!
I'm popping back on because I wanted to let you know that this bulb just doesn't seem to be lasting as long as they claim it should. I got...
I actually just got an email from him (he never calls his mother!), his research has been cited on a poster/publication and he's been given proper credit! I guess he is officially 'published' now! Pretty cool.
He said Blue Herons are the ones to really watch out for, they have bad attitudes...
Positive. The majority of the songs on my iPod are my own CDs that I imported to iTunes.
My CD/DVD driver is hosed right now, I was going to make screen prints for you but can't. I have to get that fixed!!
Anyway, when you are using iTunes and pop a CD in it will ask you if you want to...
What a great assortment of critters! Each is beautiful...not sure who I'd want to take home with me. lol. I love birds of prey, they are just so awesome and Pelicans are just funny looking. I have a great appreciation of bats now that my kid studies them but have a soft spot for a reptile of...
OOOOH! I love little hoggies! He looks like a cutie, love his name. One of these days I'm going to break down and get one, they are right up there on my "next snake" list.
Turtle's (Greek tort) table is in my son's room, after he moved out I got Turtle so it worked out nicely. If/when he moves back home (after he finishes this semester, his last, of college) I will have to squish Turtle in my room, that should be fun 'cause the dog crate takes up a lot of space...
Beethoven to Metallica with a heavy dose of The Beatles (still waiting for my mono box set to ship!!!). Gary Numan, Waylon/Willie/Johnny, REM, David Bowie, Pearl Jam, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Radiohead, The Cure...it has a bit of everything but no rap or disco ;)
I don't remember what the first one was. My great Grandfather owned and managed a lot of theaters so I spent a lot of time watching movies! I do remember seeing Bambi and Fantasia, they would have been 'early' ones for me. I also remember falling in lust with Clark Gable during a special...
It may still be lighting but, three years later, the UVB output is minimal if even at all. Not even a MVB will produce a lot of usable UV after three years. A florescent bulb (tube or coil) should be changed about every 6 months and MVB's about every year unless you have a meter and can...
I did not mean to imply that you looked down on anyone or thought you were better, if you felt that is what I meant I am truly sorry.
And I certainly appreciate your damndest help...I have asked many questions and received nothing but good advice. I was not knocking you or your knowledge or...
No ruffled feathers but...
You really have to take this one step further then, disallow the sale of or transportation into such states or elicit new laws to closely monitor to whom torts are sold and under what conditions. I can't imagine that is what you would like to see happen...
Nope, you're not the only one! I live in an apartment and can't keep my tortoise outside either. He's a 5 1/2" Greek and lives inside year round, he has a 4' x 3' table with lights and I do take him out to wander around, closely supervised of course. I would love to be able to take him...
And this is where I lose you (well, OK, I've totally lost the whole point, but...), it takes mere moments to register and get a confirmatory email and finalize enrollment. Another few minutes to create a post. If the situation is so dire that 10 minutes is going to make a difference it's...
Why not the ReptiGlo? I have not heard of any known issues with them? I have a ReptiGlo 10 that is almost a year old and is still putting out ample UVB (I have a meter). I have had zero trouble with that bulb.
The coils were supposedly fixed but I am with you there, I don't trust them yet...
Yes, this is classic trolling. A post was made simply to stir up the forum members. It is one thing to say "I'm getting tired of people not doing their research" but quite another to initially imply that folks should be made to feel bad about asking for help. That really, IMO, was the purpose...
While I agree that a lot of research should be done well before any pet is brought home and that it's housing should be set up and perfect it just doesn't always work that way. When I got my tortoise I had to scramble to make a table and get proper supplies for him, I got him out of a bad...
I think your son is a doll, what a cutie! I also think the salmon were attracted to his shoes more than the bait he was using, he's a clever kid using salmon orange crocks ;)
