    Moving to Columbus, Ohio. Any advice?

    I will be done with school in May, and I have taken a job in Columbus, Oh. Just wondering if anyone is from there or lives there. Looking for tips about where to live, where NOT to live, etc. Thanks, Evan

    Frusturated

    It's like the old saying: Don't argue with a fool. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

    I will take some photos tonight. My wife tends to keep our camera in her purse, so I forget we have it.

    Is Smiley an adult yet?

    Hello All, I was wondering if Smiley is an adult yet. I measured her plastron at 6 and 1/4 inches, and her SCL is 7 inches. I think last year, I measured her plastron at 4 inches. I was just wondering what constitutes a tortoise becoming an "Adult"

    Forum attutude

    I have strongly believed that you never write emails or call people when you are angry. When I see a post or thread that I find inflammatory, or annoying, I just pass on it. I can appreciate passion about topics, but I feel that once anger and frustration appear, people start to feed on it...

    The winter is back!

    Actually, Here in Iowa, we are going through a heat wave. It was actually 28 degrees F. However, we did get socked pretty good with snow last week. So, would you say you are experiencing an Alberta Clipper?

    I cant believe this add on craigslist!!!

    Not to go off topic, but my wife and I loaned a lot of baby clothes and baby stuff to a neighbor who claimed to be "poor and struggling." A couple of months later, my wife saw that she was trying to sell all of our stuff at her garage sale. People can be real bums, sometimes.

    Anybody use ZooMed Repti Heat Cable?

    I don't think she really favors one side to the other. Sometimes she is in the cool side, other times, she is under her light. She seems to sleep all over the enclosure.

    Anybody use ZooMed Repti Heat Cable?

    I took smiley in for a RI. They put her on Baytril. She is fine now, but I wonder if it was a classic case of a vet without tort experience trying to impress a new client. He told me to buy one of those big pig mats and raise the ambient temp around the enclosure to mid to high 80s. Thanks...
