Hi,
My name is Dustin. I'm from central Ohio and have had reptiles for about 15 years or so now. I originally only had lizards, but have expanded to Chelonians more recently,
Currently I have:
1 male bearded dragon (pogona vitticeps)
1 male saharan uromastyx (uromastyx geyri)
1 juvenile female Morrocan uromastyx (uromastyx acanthinurus)
1 juvenile southern painted turtle (chrysemys picta dorsalis)
1 juvenile peninsula cooter (Pseudemys peninsularis)
2 Russina tortoises male and female
All the lizards have been given to me by owners who have moved and can no longer keep them.
Here is the enclosure I built for them. The inside has a footprint of 2'x4'.
Black beard the bearded dragon is on the bottom
Miguel the Saharan Uro is in the middle
Citrus the Morrocan Uro is at the top. I've only had her for about six weeks now. I don't have any pictures uploaded, but she is extremely shy and didn't enjoy the eight hour drive from Philadelphia where I picked her up. She has an even bigger, nicer enclosure that I am waiting till she grows/we move to a house. She's only four to five inches right now.
Pele the peninsula cooter and Pancho the painted turtle live in a 55 gallon aquarium. Their next on a bigger home after the Russians.
The two Russian tortoises are Chuey and Marina. They've been in a 55 gallon temporarily for too long, but I have started on their new home that is 2.5 times bigger and should be finished before Christmas.
I haven't uploaded any photos to my photobucket account in over a year. I'll have to do that later this weekend so you can actually see my tortoises
A little about myself. I'm 25, I graduated from OSU with a construction management major, and work for Nationwide Insurance's corporate office here in Columbus. My girlfriend and I have two dogs as well. My girlfriend now loves the tortoises and turtles as much as I do.
One of my favorite parts of owning reptiles is designing and building their enclosures.
