I'm looking for recent (last 4 months or so) experiences with buying Mega Ray bulbs from Reptile UV. Did they ship fairly qiuck, say arrived within three weeks after you ordered? Is the bulb working as expected? If you have a SolarMeter 6.2, is the bulbs output as advertised? I am...

I am looking to buy adult female Ibera Greeks or perhaps a group of ibera's. Please email me at [email protected]. Thanks! Scott

I just fed, and they loved it, Quaker Oats. The ingredients are as pure as any product at your local store, "100% Natural Whole Grain Quaker Quality Rolled Oats". No sugar or other crap! While oats may not be in Western Hermanns natural diet, it is good fiber and they love it...

Western Hermanns are, in my opinion, some of the most beautiful tortoises available. Rare, colorful, friendly, small, and robust! I have several Western Hermanns hatchlings available!!!! Please contact me for pricing and photos at [email protected]. I estimate there are less than 40...

Here's how!

Look what appeared this morning! And the proud mother! The eggs were laid on November 14, 2010

Anyone know why SYR has been unable to "Ship Your Reptiles" for several weeks?

The following thread and a bit of web surfing led me to what appears to be a cause in need. http://tortoiseforum.org/Thread-Holes-drilled-in-tortoise Please link to this site and read what's written and then watch the video. http://www.reptileguy.ca/ I would love to see The...

Does anyone have a UVB meter to measure the output of their bulb? I like gagets and would like to get one. The $239 price for a Zoo Med UVB radiometer seems high for a toy. Are there other cheaper options that still have quality results...

WOW, any guesses on the market value of these would be here in the USA? I'm guessing about $300-350K. http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5g4FUc5onGTx2G-M1i2avqJLEFpUAD9GAV0OO0

Well, after seeing how many on this forum liked the T-Rex bulbs, I went ahead and bought one ($43.95 from LLLReptile). I put the bulb into service on 12/13/09, or 26 days ago. Today when I arrived home, the bulb was no longer functional. Now I have to go thru the hassle to get a...

Who uses an electric fence to protect their torts from preditors like coons and skunks? Any advice or lessons learned? Any reasons I should NOT consider an electric fence?

We have all seen here on the forum many times not to let your tort eat poop from dogs, other torts, etc, etc! I read an interesting article on TortoiseTrust expaining why there are times when its GOOD to feed your tort the poop of another tort! Specifically, feeding poop of a "proven"...

I just went to the nursery to buy Rose Of Sharon. I could not decide which color flower to get, white or pink! Then the guy told me they were 40% off! Done deal, I now have both! If you want plants for next year, there cheep now that its the end of the season!

Do you have an opinion on the better calcium supplement for a tort kept out doors! There is a huge difference in price. Danny, do you have an opinion? Does calcium carbonate derived from oyster shells have prosphorous? http://groworganic.com/item_F018_Oyster_Shell_Lime_6_Lb_Box.html...

I have seen on many threads talk about the use of Vitasol for birds by 8in1. Specifically, using it when soaking a hatchling tort. My local pet shop carries "Vitasol for Rabbits and Guinea pigs by 8in1". Is this the same stuff. Is the Vitasol for birds better? More importantly, is...

My baby Eastern Hermanns eats a varied diet, drinks plenty of water, gets regular baths, is active, and poops well. I bought him in early December 2008, and he is STILL about 26g. Temps are right, food is right. Heating and UVB is right. He was at the vet a month ago, and tested...

I bought a Concord grape vine at Lowes, knowing that tortoises can eat their leaves. He loves it! The only other foods he likes that much are the things he should not have frequently, like apple and cantilope.

Is there a way to encourge the use of a cuttle bone or ZooMeds turtle bone? I have read in many places that some torts like it and others do not. I guess mine does not!
