Hullo... does anybody know if Gehyra vorax or Gehyra marginata / halmahera geckos / giant pacific geckos can drop their tails? I know they can slough their skin, but I can't find any definitive answer online about whether they drop their tails.

Hi all! Just wanted to post a message to say if you have lost a snake and are beginning to lose hope- don't! My corn escaped through a faulty air vent, he was missing for close to 5 months and then he just turned up one day on Friday 13th! :lol: It happened ages ago now but thought I'd share...

Hi all, So I bought a geometric terrarium for someone, but due to a change in circumstances I'm keeping it. Originally I was going to put succulents in it, but then I though, I wonder if I could make this up nice and natural and keep some inverts? It's 20*20*17cm and as such am I correct in...

Sure, it's 45x45x90cm

Hi all, It's my 'problem' gecko again... :roll: (bless her!) So my gecko has what appears to be a bit of skin/scales missing on her lower lip. She had mouth rot a while ago and this was the area I first saw the yellow gunkiness. Mouth rot is all clear but she now has this 'bald' patch. I...

Hi all, I want to make some fake rocks to stick to the back of my Bioactive tanks. As all the rest of the décor is already in, rather than emptying it all out and doing a background the traditional way, I'd like to create the individual rocks and stick them to the back at my own leisure. So...

Hi all, I have a habistat thermostat and a cheapy hygrometer that also shows the temperature. Recently I noticed the temp was out by a good 5 degrees or so, and naturally I am more inclined to believe the habistat on it's measurement. So this makes me question whether the measurement of the...

What do you consider as a rescue? Just wondering, I see it a lot in the herp community. Have you ever rescued a reptile? Preferably would like to hear some stories with happy outcomes! I consider that I rescued mine, they were not neglected or ill treated, but they would have been euthanised...

Hi all! Thought I'd better introduce myself, I’ve been lurking and posting a little here and there for a while. I have pictures of my animals but I’ll add them later when I am home from work. So around a year ago I got a carolina corn snake from a pet store, I have always adored snakes and I...

Hi guys, so I can post new threads just fine, but when I try to reply to threads, my reply box is greyed out? I'm probably just being stupid, but how do I get past this? :roll:

Hi all! So I have 3 giant pacific geckos/vorax geckos. Two are adults and one is a juvenile. They are all kept in separate bioactive vivs and are doing really well. Now, I've been working on getting the adults to be okay with me, and they will now tolerate the presence of my hand, and one will...

Hi all, I hope you can help! I have a Giant Pacific gecko who appears to have developed a small clouded area on her eye. I have some pictures but i'm not sure how well you can see it... Vets are closed now and I will take her tomorrow, but I wondered if anyone has any idea of what it could be...
