*Raspberry!*


Ball! Ball! Ball, ball, ball!


Switched to the "tuggy" toy.


Wishing I'd put the camera away and come play with her.


Getting frustrated with me and the camera, lol!


Peeking out the window.


Howling up a storm. Notice the cat is not impressed.


^_^


"Gah, can't even sleep without you snapping away!"


And now, let the silliness commence. Here are some short videos I took of her when she was being crazy funny.

I named him Ra, and he has never attempted to strike at me, but damn he's fast lol

On saturday he decided he'd had enough and decided to give it to me. It seems to have not grown at all and was not eating! I am keeping in a seperate viv due to the size difference compared to the other 2 which are the same age!

A reptile store owner recommended i give him a bath to help rehydrate him, i have done this and since then he has perked up and is now eating. however whenever i try to pick him up he opens his mouth then attempts to bite me. anyone have any suggestions on how i can try to calm him down and stop him being so scared?]]> I recently bought 2 baby bearded dragons from a friend they are now much larger and are fine when handled!

Some of you might know me from the Cornsnake sister forum. Basically I've got 2 corn snakes and I want a Boa. I've always loved snakes but due to the irrational fear of a certain mother I was never allowed one. ATM I live in a shared house so I can't have a Boa but I'm looking for a house. The problem is that my fiancee isn't 100% keen on the idea, I think its due to the size.

So what I am asking from you is; can you share your experiences and the pros of having a boa. Their temperament etc. I'm trying to sell her on the idea that they basically are as docile as a corn snake, even more so!

I'll thank you in advanced ]]>

When we collected him, the previous owner took him out no problems and both myself and mrs toggsy handled him and he seemed very settled and calm.
Since we've got him back we've noticed he's very jumpy and worried about him striking out at us
I've purchased a snake hook as a precaution and I've been using the hook to manoeuvre him around and handle him by keeping the biting end away from me.
Read on the net about using a glove so if he does strike he won't like the taste.
Does the 2 week rule about allowing them settle to apply for sub adults ?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated

he is currently on some antibiotics we got from the vet cause he had a runny nose and a leaky eye when we got him. could this be why hes not being himself or could it be something else? we got sold a vivarium with him (was recomended the best thing to keep him in) but after reading up I have found that most people use tortoise tables so intend on investing in one next week.

any help or general info would be great

Just need to know what to expect from them behaviour wise. I have read a few books but they are vague. They are very skittish to be expect. The smaller one is more scared then the slightly bigger one who seems to seek being taken out of the vivarium.
But they are spending alot of their time under a bark arch at the moment. Is this normal?
