This is my little buckskin (well not so little anymore) that I purchased from petco roughly 3-4 months ago...maybe 5 I'm back at time keeping. Just wondering if she is large enough to sex, I'm saying she because if it is, it's definitely a she. I have to scale to weight otherwise I'd be able to...

When I autopsied the crestie I noticed it was impacted with food, and it had little white worms in with black heads. The worms were probably 2mm long, and the head was barely noticeably black; as in the only reason I could probably see it with the naked eye is because I have extremely good...

I recently got 2 leopards, one sub-adult and one adult; male and female respectively. Well upon purchasing them I used cracked walnut shell as the substrate...I knew it wasn't the best but I felt like they had a less chance of eating that than sand. NOPE they immediately started taking little...

It has occurred to me that if my tokay sits inside her cork round for an extended period of time the cork round dries her feet out, and she loses complete grip. I've tried angling my mister to keep the cork round damp but it seems like it just absorbs too fast, the air in the cage will be humid...

So I purchased cracked walnut shell for my 2 leo's substrate for some dumb reason, and I was wondering if it would be viably to use a 1/4" thick sheet of plywood as their floor until I'm able to get some tile or make me a compact clay/sand floor. Would the plywood give off chemical fumes from...

Any idea why a gecko would stick it's nose in the substrate? Is she maybe sliding down the log while she's asleep? I keep her around 85-90 w/ ~90% humidity. During the night the temp drops to about 80-85 w/ 90% humidity. Humidity never drops below 77%, it stays at 90% because of the live...

Will the damaged teeth grow back, and it looks like the gums got a little hurt. Imagine her nipping at the knuckle and getting around it but the bite slipping off the knuckle. So it dragged on her jaw kinda.

So I recently got me a tokay gecko, probably a good 6-9 inches long already. It's hard to tell I don't want to attempt to handle him until he acclimates to his new surrounding. He was from petco but seems to be extremely healthy. Taming him is going to be difficult if not impossible because of...
