    Please Help - White spots on my redfoots neck

    Thank you! I've never noticed it before. Maybe he's just maturing? I did notice some little bugs in his enclosure :( Does that ever happen to any of you guys? I moved him into a temporary enclosure and I'm going to purchase a new one for him. I've had him in a glass tank and its hard as hell to...

    I tried the dog food and he loved it... It's small bites and I only wet down about 8 lil pieces and he went crazy.

    Help me keep my Redfoot healthy

    Luckily I'm totally into him and have researched a lot. I just realized today that I'm probably not feeding him the proper diet. I was giving him variety to keep him busy during the day and give him something to do.. I read that he shouldn't be fed every day as well, which I can't imagine as he...

    Help me keep my Redfoot healthy

    I actually do have a digital one in the tank, it's on the other side. Like I said I just got him two weeks ago and the people at Petco sold me a 20 galloon tank and told me all I needed was some chips at the bottom of it with a uvb light and heat lamp. I figured out they were way wrong. I'll get...

    My humidity is low. I get it up to 70% in the morning and evening but it doesn't last long. I'm going to buy a cool mist humidifier this weekend and rig it up to the tank.

    Help me keep my Redfoot healthy

    I have been feeding him fruits everyday and he loves them... Should I stop? I've never fed any of the things you mentioned. If I start to feed tuna, egg, or chicken how often should I feed it to him? Do I leave the peal and all on the egg? How many ounces of protein should I give him for his...

    Help me keep my Redfoot healthy

    I've owned my redfoot for a couple weeks and I'm nervous I may not be feeding him the way he should be fed. I give him Kale or mixed organic greens daily. I always include a small bowl of mixed fruit (kiwi, grapes, strawberries, pineapple, mango, occasionally a bit of banana) I also include a...
