    Baby not eating or opening eyes

    No puss or discharge of any kind. I told her how to make a humid hide and to spray him daily along with soaks. She has some of those eye drops already, so she is using those too.

    Baby not eating or opening eyes

    A friend of mine got a baby sully on July 10th from Eric at South Central Herpetological. He has multiple hides, coco fiber bedding and moss. His temps are good and he gets soaked everyday. For the past 2 days he has not eaten and will not open his eyes. The only way he opens his eyes is if she...

    Why does my dog do this?

    I had assumed it had to do with his breed, but just wanted to check. I have never seen a dog carry things around so much. He is so careful with it too. He doesn't like his blanket to drag, so he balls it up to keep it from dragging lol. Thanks guys!

    Why does my dog do this?

    Our oldest dog loves to carry things around in his mouth. When he was a puppy he would actually take try to take his blanket out on walks with us. On occasion when he got it out the door he would ball it up to carry it up and down the stairs and if it started to drag he would stop and readjust...

    Do it yourself pet nail trim ideas

    For our parrots, I clip their nails while they are in their cage. When they are hanging on the side, I have very good access to their nails. It took some times to get them used to the trimmer, but for me this is the easiest way.

    My new baby dart frog

    I talked to them. They don't ship the tadpoles, because its to risky. They are willing to let me have some for my classroom if I can meet them at the reptile show in Daytona. The only problem is I am not sure I can make it to that show. :(

    Purposefully swerves to hit box turtle!

    I went through his other comments to find more info and when people would ask if it was a joke, he just made rude comments about them, never denying he hit it. Not all country people are like this, it is a few famous ones that do stupid stuff that give the rest a bad name. .

    Purposefully swerves to hit box turtle!

    When people respectfully asked him about it he just came back with rude remarks, never denying it. To my knowledge it is a protected species where this happened.

    What is the best way to mark/ID torts of the same size/species

He gave all the torts ID numbers then had a system of numbering the scutes. Starting at the back of the carapace going to the right the edge scutes were numbered 1,2,4,8 then...
