    Leo has sand impaction

    Thank you all for your advice and concern, I rushed Peach to the emergency vet about 2 hours away (ugh) but got her looked at and turns out she did have sand impaction after all.

    Leos and their food question!

    I have been wondering, so figured I'd ask. I feed my leos crickets that I gutload with Reptocal (includes Calcium and Vitamin d3) and Exo-Terra multivitamin, both powders. Then I put them in the cage and don't bother to redust or remove them until they are either dead or been eaten. I also...

    Hey there from Woodstock Illinois!

    As you can guess I'm new here. So a little about myself, my name is Candice, I'm a full time student, happily married and an artist.
