Good afternoon everyone, Opo is having a hard time controlling his manhood.
He is like a middle school boy getting aroused on a bumpy bus ride. ?

More temper tantrums? And good for you, Opo n your grass, RAIN! ?? Last night we had a good old thunderstorm, we needed it. Grass browning, flowers fading fast.

I have posted pictures on my Bearded Dragon thread, But here is one of the completed enclosure:

View attachment 300823
I'm interested to see whether Phoenix finds any of the plant selection in there edible. When we had Red Lady on the front porch a while back, she was eyeing a variegated haworthia that we had to keep away from her. The plant wouldn't have harmed her at all, but we really didn't want beardie teeth marks on the succulent leaves.

One of the reasons why I put those particular plants in there was for him to try and eat for his veggie part of his diet. I am even tempted to try and plant dandelion in there as well.

I got a call from my post office this morning letting me know that my delivery of superworms arrived, so I'm going into town sometime this afternoon to pick it up. They're really good about calling and letting me know when live critters arrive.
They are probably scared some might escape into their offices. ?

It's a good thing the bulk order of superworms arrived at the post office today. I just have Indy and Red Lady the last few large ones from the previous order. The shelves at both local Petco locations have been bare of superworms lately, and Petsmart doesn't usually carry them.

One nice thing about superworms is that they don't have to be refrigerated. They are kind of on the fattening side, however, so I try to be sensible as to how much I give Red Lady in one sitting. Her special "superpower" is being able to expand that belly of hers to accommodate anything she wants to eat.

Good Afternoon One and All,

We finally were able to complete the Phoenix's new setup in his enclosure. And Jarrod says that he seems to be happy today. so this must mean that he likes it.

Does anybody have any thoughts on the Deep Heat Projector and 12% UVB + D3 reptile lamp. T8 (Tube). Is it worth getting them for a Bearded Dragon?

Good news: My transport permit came through and Ultimate Exotics (Which is where I am getting my crested gecko from) will be sending him/her to me on Monday. Yay I am so excited and cannot wait. At least his/her enclosure is all ready and waiting for him/her. I don't know what gender I am getting yet, it is a surprise and since I am only getting one of them it does not matter which one I get.

The sun is shining and life is good at the moment. Have an awesome day everybody.
I can't wait to see either. Hopefully seeing your posts will be enough. So I don't have to get one.? Have fun.

Please don't make me think about that dreadful day again with Saphire. I'll die laughing. Try a cool swimming pool.??

Mazuri makes an insectivore gel food that’s not a bad option either for the insects . It comes as a powder and you mix it.

First real pepper harvest- bananas, cubanelles, and a green pepper. 2.4 pounds- all from my bucket garden. The drip system saved everything in this heat waveView attachment 300870
Nice. Even Ohio has been dry and just plain hot. I haven't been able to take the little guy out for 3 days. I did manage to get Saphire out early today because it rained and stayed nice. He's about to get checked on. If he's in his hut it's beddy by time inside.? I don't dare show your picture to Joe. Any pepper plants are his favorite! He even nukes them. I don't know how he lives threw it.?
