    Roach Bin Pics Thread

    Albino or just freshly molted? I've seen them white after molting, but never like this. Gonna see if it stays.

    Roach Bin Pics Thread

    Speaking of picking, is it safe to grab them firmly? I have trouble rounding up the smaller ones to feed with. I'm afraid I'll crush them so I just kinda force them to walk into my hands.

    Roach Bin Pics Thread

    What is the general consensus on the best heating source? I've seen people talk about heating tape and heating pads. For the tape, how do you guys run it? Just coil it up under one side of the bin? Seems like it would be easier to control the temps with a heating pad since you can change the...

    Handling Woes

    He's getting a lot better. Some days he'll be a little fussy when I first go to pick him up but other than that he's fine. I have him sitting on my desk right now hanging out with me.

    Handling Woes

    Haha, well that's good news. My sister was just chalking it up to his "terrible twos". Guess she was right.

    Handling Woes

    Handling used to not be an issue with Bane, but lately (past few weeks) he has been very temperamental about me trying to pick him up. He is very active, has a very healthy appetite, eats from my hand, let's me mist him and pet him, but as soon as I go to pick him up he runs off. I was wondering...

    My Little Buddy Bane

    Yeah, I love the little guy, he's awesome. I'm curious to see how he starts looking after some real shedding. I've seen some dragons completely change colors.

    My Little Buddy Bane

    It's been a little over two weeks since I got my dragon, Bane. I'm lovin' the little guy, he has a great attitude. Just thought I'd post some pictures of him. When I first got him, about 8 weeks old: Catching some rays outside: Pictures from today, about 10 weeks old:

    Exo-Terra Repti-Glo 10.0 Tube

    Got the Reptisun in the other day. Bane is loving it, spending a lot of time on his branch closest to the light.

    Good Roomate For A Fire Bellied Toad?

    Well, I've heard of people who have fire bellied newts in the same viv and they do fine. Just wondering if there was any other frog/amphibian that would fit.

    Good Roomate For A Fire Bellied Toad?

    I adopted four fire bellies from a friend about 13-14 years back. Sometime down the road I got another little dude and had five total; Sprite, Pepsi, Coke, DP and Barqs. As of about a month ago, I am down to just Sprite (I think!). Not sure how old he is as they got pretty hard to identify once...

    Exo-Terra Repti-Glo 10.0 Tube

    I place an order for one from PetMountain. Of course I couldn't just order the bulb, so I ended up spending $50, but the Reptisuns are on sale for $20.

    Best Everyday Feeder For A Juvenile Dragon?

    Yeah, I was gonna get an order of 500 or 1000 crickets to have on hand while waiting for the dubias. There is actually a local breeder that I can get bulk orders from.

    Exo-Terra Repti-Glo 10.0 Tube

    Well right now I just have his basking lamp and a normal 24" florescent for lighting. I've been taking him outside a couple times a day for some UV exposure to compensate for the lack of UV in his viv. I'm not concerned about his health right now as he is very active and shows no signs of...

    Exo-Terra Repti-Glo 10.0 Tube

    I was wondering if the Exo-Terra Repti-Glo 10.0 florescent tube bulbs were any good. I originally ordered a Zoo Med Reptisun 10.0 bulb off eBay, but it arrived broken. I need to get something asap and my Petsmart only carries the Repti-Glos. The Exotic Pet shop has the Reptisuns, but they are...

    Best Everyday Feeder For A Juvenile Dragon?

    My dragon, Bane, is about 9 weeks old and just over 8". I have been feeding him small crickets from Petsmart, about 9 or 10 in morning and evening, and I also keep fresh greens and veggies (collard, mustard, sometimes carrots) in his cage, but he doesn't pay them much attention right now. I was...
