Today after her bath yoshi snagged some stuck shed on the towel she was wrapped in and ripped some of the shed off with a scale so she has an open wound on her leg. I was wondering what I can use to protect the opening until her vet appointment saturday. thanks for any help.

thanks for the help guys. I bathed her every other day when I noticed her starting to shed; but her baths are short (like 5 min) because she thrashes and freaks out in the water and tried desperately to get away. I didn't scrub her feet at all, so I'm thinking she caught it while thrashing and...

anyone please?

hey all, so emmi has been shedding for the last week or so, and I've been bathing her extra because she's having issues getting the shed off her feet. well I was checking her feet today and she has a red sore on each front foot, and I guessing it's from ripping the the skin. is there something I...

do you recommend dropping her temps at all? I used to with my leopard gecko when he was alive, but he always went into and out of brumation like clockwork and I knew exactly what was going on with him. since this is my first winter with her I'm nervous. also what about calcium needs? that was...

anyone have any ideas?

for the last four weeks emmy has been lethargic and refusing to eat (except for crit care). so I took her to the vet and was told that her blood work was fine and that her problems were from her being overweight. now she is being pretty active, running around her cage and digging at the door to...

I have as much time as I need to get the job done right

I'm most of the way finished with a crossfire enclosure but there are a ton of scuff marks and nicks that aren't coming off with cleaning so I was wondering if there is a safe spray paint I can use on the interior and exterior of the enclosure to make it look nice again. also what kind of...

hey everyone! It's been quite awhile since I've been on here but I've run into a problem. I remember that by 18 months you're supposed to not feed prey everyday, but I forget how much and how frequently they should eat insects. Emmy was to the vet today because she suddenly started acting very...

anbody???

bump in hopes for help.

Hey all, So poor yoshi has been having issues with digestion since she came home with us back in july. she has been to the vet several times and she has been diagnosed with coccidia, cleared, then diagnosed with pinworms and cleared. she was still having trouble digesting so another stool sample...

so, as of the last week and a half yoshi has suddenly developed this habit of glass dancing for hours on end. She has salad and bugs, she has a repti-sun 10.0, shes got decent temps and plenty of basking spaces. At first I thought she was doing it when she wanted more bugs but we would feed her...

I got dermestids from these guys http://www.westcoastroaches.com/ and havent had to clean my bin out at all. They recommend the dermestids to clean dead roaches and fecal material, and meal worms to control any grains that don't get eaten so that you don't get grain mite infestations, but I...

oh my gosh, this is too cute! thanks for sharing!

I've also stored them in a wine cooler at 55-60 and had no problems at all. check CL and ebay for cheap used ones though. I spent about a month checking everyday and it finally paid off with me getting a used model for $32 after shipping. happy hunting!

I can't help with the heat cable vs flexwatt (though I just got a ball python and was considering building a rack so I could get more and the flexwatt seems pretty complicated); but for keeping the roaches in the garage I read either on here or at the ball python forums a while back that you can...

Can't answer the question on the PO box though it sounds like a great idea in theory! just thought I'd throw an idea out for a situation where they leave the box in the sun like lauram mentioned. my mailman usually delivers in the morning, but whenever I have a box he delivers it at the end of...

no heat source at the moment, just sticking the container next to the heat vent. I'm working on getting a UTH, but right now all available funds are going towards getting Emmy healthy
