    Why don't we form our own reptile shipping corporation?

    I for one am sick to DEATH of all the crap that we as reptile keepers take on a regular basis from all the shipping companies out there- from USPS, to UPS to Fedex, to DHL, to Dash. They're all completely hostile to our interests, and rarely will you hear the same story twice as to the...

    Removal of the spider egg sac on my car.

    Hi, all- My car broke down and has been sitting in front of my house for many months now. One day, I looked at it and realized that there was a gorgeous, fluorescent yellow crab spider on it, and it was guarding a yellow egg sac. I did a little research on crab spiders, and I guess the reason...

    Brazillian Rainbow Boa Humidity Levels?

    Hi there- I've read somewhere that adult Brazillian Rainbow Boas don't need as high of a humidity level as they do when they're juveniles. What are y'all's thoughts on that? My 2 year old rainbow used to eat every single week of her whole life- even when I first got her and she had mites...

    Shipping Reptiles for the first time?

    Yeesh! Everytime I go to a UPS hub and ask what the policies are for shipping live reptiles are, I get a different answer. Some rich designer ball python breeder or something needs to start their own reptile shipping business, cause all the shippers I know of are completely incompetant. I have...

    Strange experience w/ stinking goddess...

    Wow, these last 2 weeks have held some of the strangest experiences I have ever had with a snake. I purchased a 3-5ish ft elaphe carinata a short while ago which was supposed to be an import and untreated for parasites. She had been with the dealer for about 3 weeks and eaten once with him...

    Who uses Exoterra foggers?

    A long time ago, in a state far, far away (unless you live in Alaska too) I bought an Exoterra fogger, but when I tried it out, it really was not what I expected. I kept it because the effect is pretty cool. What kind of setups can/shouldn't you use a fogger in? A pet shop I worked in had one...

    What kind of feeding tongs do y'all use?

    What kind of feeding tongs would you guys use for... say, a green tree python, an amazon tree boa, and/or a ball python? Where would you recommend I get some tongs? I see a lot of options out there, but I am not sure what the best thing for me to get would be... what's the difference?

    Sci-fi or possible Sci-fact w/ venomous keepers?

    I know I'm proabably crazy (okay, so I KNOW I am, but in any case...) wouldn't it be theoretically possible for a human to become immune to a certain kind of snake's venom if introduced to very low volumes slowly increased over a long, long period of time? I mean, they do it with horses to make...

    A day with an Amazon tree boa?

    Yes, I have heard the reports about the sheer and unbridled nastiness of Amazon tree boas' personalities, but are they all very prone to biting? Do they ever calm down to the point where you can handle them relatively safely? How bad are the bites? Amazons are probably my dream snake as far as...
