Thank you for posting. It's funny you say that because I noticed yesterday that after having fed off a few of them, the rotting flesh/fish smell appears to be gone and it's turned back to it's normal ammo is smell. So, while the packing media was fine, it may have just had too many worms in it...

Ok I contacted reptiworms and they responded very quickly. That was neat. They said the following: "Hi Denise,It is a normal smell, and is just an off gas that the put, leaving them out at room temperature for about an our is usually enough to get the smell to go away, but there is nothing to...

Hmm I dont see any mold. I'll keep lid off still it's been an hour. Bleh. And yes I have ordered from them quite a few times before. Never had this problem. I didnt want to bother contacting them if they are safe to feed. But maybe I should let thrm know anyway and see what they say. The...

Did the container still smell after you took the doa's out? I am going to contact them...but I really needed them today and if they are unsafe to feed I wont.

Nope no dead ones. I got 200 large. They are healthy and fat and wiggly....but omg the smell! Just digging around in there is making me want to barf. They are cool too...so its not like they were subjected to high heat. Its not hot here at all.

Has anyone had an issue with their reptiworms smelling putrid or fishy? I'm used to the ammonia smell but never this. I feel like vomiting now as I air them out after having just received them now. I know they eat dead decaying material, but I've been buying reotiworms for awhile now and never...

That's a good solution for people that feel the need to put BP's in a tank. Plexi isn't that difficult to work with either. Good find!

I know of a breeder who is just starting out with beardies in Amherst. I have seen his other lizards and his snakes, and they are in stellar condition and his husbandry is great, but I have not seen the beardies. If you would like his number, I'll give him a call and ask if I can PM it to you if...

ooo those are all awesome choices. The one you picked works well, but I can see how it'd be difficult with those top 5!

ooooo this one is my favorite. I'd choose this one over the one I made any day!

No problem. Freezer space can certainly be an issue ;) Good luck with the BP

If he is pretty round it won't hurt to cut him back for 3 weeks or so. It's up to you.The real issue here is the insane price you're paying for feeders. If I were you, I'd order feeders through places like The Mouse Factory or Rodent Pro. Shipping is a tad expensive, but you can buy 1 years...

You can leave the mouse in overnight, but you must throw it out the next morning and avoid peeking in and bothering him. He may just simply not want the other mouse though, which is just fine if he is a healthy weight for his age. If you think he needs more than one mouse for his body weight...

lol yeah the shark steamer is good. vacuums are my second best friend for cleaning beardie cages. You need to put a lid on whatever container you put the snake in to soak. Snakes usually never willingly soak themselves.

Whatever you want to do will be fine :) You know what you're doing and will know what's best for him. You don't have to worry about him not eating until he actually does it. I was just telling you this just in case so that you can remedy it quickly because I often get asked by people how to make...

Oh blue tongued skinks are fun little guys! you're going to be very happy. We have one named Elwood :) He LOVES scrambled eggs, fruit (especially grapes,and berries but especially blueberries), and of course his feeder roaches. We mist his cage every day and he laps it up off the side of the...

Glad I could help! I wanted to add...make sure the snake or it's things do not come into contact with your clothes during the quarantine period. You can handle it, but be sure to wash your hands (and forearms if you are that worried). Baby mites can easily hitch a ride on your clothes and skin...

He looks very handsome :) I love his little salad bowl. I'm glad he is settling in for you.

Open her mouth to see if her teeth are OK if you are worried. :) I'm willing to bet she is just not hungry and is defensive striking at it (not purposely trying to grab it, but striking to get it to go away).

There is nothing that can be passed from a snake to a dragon unless they come into contact with each others' feces (internal parasites) or external mites. All you have to do is quarantine and practice good hygiene and you will be fine. For an easy quarantine enclosure, put the snake in a small...
