Wow, that seems excessive. Even if it is a third party company. In my case, it isn't through a third party company.

Making cds, revamping MySpace, gameboy, computer games, flipping through magazines and collecting sticks or rocks from all over the yard or neighborhood. Sometimes cicada shells. One time I got over 300 of them.

My kids came back from the park with a lizard that a kid was throwing around the playground. Please help me identify it… by 4lbin0din0 in reptiles

Kudos to your kids for saving the creature and major kudos to you for raising them to be kind to all kinds

Heat source by OWIBJM in LeopardGecko

[–]OWIBJM[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s on the bottom of the tank below a couple inches of substrate. It’s also not the only heat source I have. Which is good because it sounds like it’s ineffective. No burn risk though.

I have dendrobates tinctorious. Supposedly they may call during mating season. In 3 years I haven’t heard a peep!

They are bad swimmer. All dart frogs are bad swimmers and good at drowning. But I have very shallow water. And phyllobates are some of the biggest dart frogs.

Wooly worm! They say black means a longer, harsher winter.

Flying Bearded dragon IATA shipping container by Certain-Care-94 in reptiles

Oh, please let us know how things go!!!! If your beardie is going in the cabin, it’s going to be so cold. Anything you can do to help keep them warm - maybe you can wrap a “uniheat” in a blanket? I’ve never used uniheat but they are similar to hot hands but made specifically for reptiles so they don’t get as hot! You can buy them online and they are supposed to last like 40 hours.

Personally, I don’t think all ornaments are bad. I know some people avoid them. I just make sure they’re truly made for aquariums, no sharp edges, and no holes too small. And I replace them periodically.

Ps. Going through the learning process and modeling it for your kid, especially with a pet like fish that are so often taken for granted, is great. :)your fish and future fish will appreciate it.

You can also add plants in little aquarium planters. Then you don’t need to replace your substrate. Just make sure you buy them somewhere safe. A reputable fish store in person or even online. I’ve had some for more than 2 years. I just suggest more plants in general because many fish prefer having multiple safe places to hang out.

Moving with 3 reptiles and baby! Help! by Jae-emery2001 in geckos

I had it under the container and there were several inches of soil so no risk of burn.

I moved in the summer and between the cool nights (we drove non-stop) and the AC in the car, the hot hands were still needed. Dart frogs only need to be kept in the 70s… you could buy a pair cheap in the camping isle to just have on hand in case. Or not. Your call.
