I guess I should mention I keep 20 different tarantula species including old world arboreals, scorpions, etc. as well as have various exotics knowledge and other reptiles and mammals. I mentioned my boy is feisty.. I'm not afraid of him nor do I believe I couldn't handle an adult. I just...
I know I'm supposed to look for signs like sunken eyes, enlarged forearms or whatever else. I can tell you right now my boy (he is definitely male.... lol) is nasty, feisty, and you cannot hold him. I don't except for transportation to baths or whatnot. Was worried about shed skin on a couple...
It is cheaper to buy materials and build them yourself.... trust me on that.
They were $975 each, plus I bought two 160 watt radiant heat panels, and shipping cost $290. UPS had to freight it in and the guy couldn't get it off of his truck at all. We had to take the pallet off the truck...
I just received my two boamasters. 10' x 4' x 4' and 10' x 4' x 3'. They made the doors huge and put ventilation in anyway. I just.finished building one and am going to build the second one tonight. It looks like I'll have to get some melamine boards and drill them into the bottom sectio.s...
I just received my reply from boamaster cages and they will custom build me my sizes. I am getting a 10' x 4' x 3' for the tegu's enclosure once she is out of hibernation and a 10' x 4' x 4' for the sav with doors built towards the top. These are being ordered within the next month. Radiant...
today's pic, bit too wet at pic time, just misted and replaced the water bowl..
I think it was 1 bag sand to 2 bags dirt, but I'll admit it isn't mixed very well.
I stuck a second bowl for water on the opposite side of the tank just now to see how it goes, although I need to bury it, I...
This image is a over a month old, there are now two heat lamps on top. 40 gallon breeder, the savannah was 12 inches and now is getting to 14 inches long. I want to get the adult cages done or purchased or whatever within the next couple months so I can move them in immediately. I did the...
his fave water bowl is underneath the heat lamp... I know they need high humidity as well compared to what most care sheets and dealers will tell you... kind of like how sulcatta need high humidity and most don't get it because people think "desert" animal even though they're burrowers...
True. trust me, I've been reading up on it all. I know they need a ton of dirt (his tank currently is over 50% sand/substrate mix, with a huge bowl of water big enough for him to completely submerge in.. and that's where he spends most of his time). I've been checking up on all the how-to...
Well, she was adopted out as an adult female, and from what I can tell from trying to sex them, that's what she is.
She also escaped yesterday from her temp cage. She was able to reach the top and pull off the hardware cloth I had nailed on.. It's a little under 6 feet x 4 feet x 22"...
Thanks!! Like I said, newbie. I figured she was, but it felt like every thread I'd come across would be about "hey look at my argentine!" and someone would note the scales on the nose and tell them it was a colombian instead. I just wanted to confirm since that is what I adopted her as...
So I picked up an argentine black and white tegu female today from a woman rehoming her. Beautiful, lovely, friendly, huge, but one thing seemed off. I remember while researching long and hard (we were planning on getting a baby this summer but this girl came up instead) I remember the whole...
