Yeah the inside of her tank also smells. Ive given up on her tank though. Washed it with soap, then bleach, then ammonia STILL it smells(granted, i didnt do all in 1 go but even still). Its winter in NYC and i REALLY dont want to get wet outside... but if i got to i got to. Thanks for the...

She has REALLY bad coccidia. Like her poop makes me insta-gag. Going to pick her up is gag-worthy. Needless to say, I took her to the vet, got her meds going. Used 25% ammonia/water to clean her enclosure and alls well. BUT(brace for grossness) she has poop sort of encrusted in her scales...

Why are you getting a reptisun? Isnt the purpuse of the MegaRay to be an all-in-one kind of thing? Thanks for the replies, im gonna go ahead and buy one tomorrow probably.

bump no dice eh? I thought tons of ppl used MegaRay

Thats the ting, with these enclosures since theyre glass and heavy expect to pay A LOT in shipping. Hence the whole reasoning for going through the trouble of making yours. I recommend taking a trip to petco and checking craigslist often though. Ive seen mine have 40 gallon breeders and what...

Why is making one out of the question? I had 0 experience with any tools before I built my enclosure, I barely knew how to hold a hammer but it didnt stop me and it looks awesome and the cost of making it was some hrs of my time and around $80. That being said, if you insist on buying one I...

My tank is a 40 gallon breeder, 36" x 18" x 16". Im not sure if the 100W will produce the heat required or if the 160W would be a better option? Also, once I get it, should I let it burn off the fumes over night and then use it in the enclosure or do the fumes not matter?

Yeah of course im not talking negligent-go-hungry here. My roomate will make sure she has veggies in her plate at all time BUT she refuses to touch the roaches, with luck I can get a friend to come and do that(cant wait to see the reaction when I show him what hell be feeding her) but thats not...

I also imagine that they would do something at the border. Ive done this trip several times before and theyre not exactly super thorough at the customs office with checking every passenger and what not so I probably COULD sneak her by, however, that would risk getting caught and starting tons...

Hey im leaving to Toronto for a week, im greyhounding it. Ill be staying with a friend who is a fellow herp lover and has spare tanks and lights and what not. Im busing in the night so Slegs will probably just be fast asleep the whole way there, 10 hours from NYC. I was wondering if anybody...

Sexy Legs sleeps with me every night. At first, I too was worried id squish her, but man they will certainly let you know if theyre uncomfortable. My baby will move her bum so she gets comfortable and if im squishing her in any which way shell blow up and damn those spikes really hurt. Usually...

Were going to the vet for our first fecal tomorrow!! (haha sorry couldnt help but use plural...) Last bump, for any other opinions before vet. How can I check if my beardie is "healthy fat"?

Hmm... I havent noticed her greying at all. She hasnt eating anything today. I think shes around 8 months old. Is she getting ready to brumate or something like that? Either way, ill be getting her first fecal done ASAP. On average, how much do these cost? I REALLY hope its much less than $100...

Ive recently noticed that my beardies appetite has decreased, she was always lazy but she still lunged for it. Now she looks at it and sorta opens her mouth but doesnt chomp. I noticed this today, yesterday she ate fine. I managed to get her to each a big roach today. My temps are fine. 105-110...

She just ate a cricket and then pooped this: http://img186.imageshack.us/i/dsc03258g.jpg/ This is her basking yesterday, like I said I put in her rocks today so she doesnt have the book + wood set up hahah. http://img2.imageshack.us/i/dsc03252k.jpg/
