yeah, sometimes when you take out an animal and handle it it will fire, there are a few tricks you can do too; the wet paper towel in a deli cup can make an animal fire, I used that trick + being in a dark room to get this baby to fire

Rachs, and some other animals (beardies come to mind) change color depending on: mood, light level, time of day/night,etc. Nocturnal animals like rachs (cresties, gargs, etc) usually show their brighter colors a night. Whereas my bearded dragon is brightest colored during the day. If he's...

Northman, who has been renamed North, got a photoshoot :) North is a baby from captain x sunspot (see avargarde geckos). Here "he" is unfired: Here he is mostly fired (like 85%). Getting this gecko to fire is SO much work, he's so chill and relaxed. Mina, you do an absolutely wonderful...

I have a Square, it's free and it's been very easy to use. https://squareup.com/

That sounds awful. :( Would anyone here have a good idea of scar removing or "making less apparent" creams or stuff that actually works? If you poke me I scar, and I'm gonna scar on all of these bites.

:/ frigging infected bug bites. I got 22 mosquito bites on my lower legs, and like 14 of them got infected. And then I needed to be on antibiotics for a week. SO MUCH FAIL. Let us wallow in our bug related fails. OMG i just noticed you're in VA, i was in eastern MD. Maybe it's the area. D:

There are quite a few morphs that when combined will make some variation of a white ball python. The theory is that these morphs are all different variations on the same allele of a gene. Lesser platinums, mojaves, yellow bellies, russo het leucistics, white diamonds, fires (although these...

I voted Roaches. I keep and breed dubias and have been for over a year and a half. In 98% of the US they are non colonizing (that is why they cant be shipped to Florida, because they can colonize there). Ive got over 2000 of them and will not be switching. I do supplement with meal worms, super...

her enclosure might be too big. She looks very small, like 4-6 weeks old small. The breeder I got my beardie from recommends keeping babies in a 10gal for a bit so they can find everything they need. I moved my guy up to a bigger cage at about 8-10 weeks old. I always make sure I mist and feed...

I have two female leos that aren't fitting into my breeding projects; first up is a female red boldstripe (popular consensus is what her morph is based on). She's been in my possession for a few months. I got her in a trade, she was produced by Luxurious Leopards. She eats well on dubia roaches...

I breed dubias and supply mealworms to my geckos as well. Some also get waxworms as a treat 2x a month or so. I get the best feeding responce from the Dubias though. My animals have grown very well on them. As long as the meals are moving around they'll get eaten too.
