Hey shroomers,

Reptiles seem like a big business, selling year round. People keep all sorts, even crocodiles!

So post your reptiles and tell me the best part of owning one!

-I'll upload a pic soon, not yet, not until the shroomery throws the dice first. :thumbup:

I won't let them push me away

Ive had a few turtles. Thats about it. The red ear i had i think was pretty happy cause of the lush vegetation and fish that were in the tank. I ended up letting him go which i ended up regretting cause he made the tank look pimp

That's my buddy Dude.  He's a painted turtle.  I inherited him from my cousin.  He originally was found in a lake as a baby about the size of a half dollar. 

They didn't take very good care of him.  He was in a 10 gallon tank with a waterfall filter but no where to get out of the water and bask. 

Now he is in a 55 gallon tank with a turtle topper and a canister filter rated for a 175 gallon

Now he is about 5-6" long.  He loves attention and splashes in circles when you see him.  He'll also blow bubbles out when you are talking to him.  He'll eat shrimp and pellets from my hand. 

Sometimes I put him in a hamster ball so he can roll around.  I'm sure he'd rather just be out and about but I have a cat that is 16 years old and is a bit of a biter.  I don't think the cat would eat him but I do think he would bite him playfully and I don't want him to get hurt.

Lovely! Turtles are pretty cool. I've never owned one though, so I don't know how difficult they are/can be.
You should upload a picture of your setup! :smile:

My brother has an African mud turtle named Koopa. I'll take some pictures of his set-up and post them later. He just recently bought a vinyl background so it looks aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

Nice! Don't think I could look after a beardie, I know they require a lot in their tanks such as uv lighting etc.

You only feed once a month? As well as your snake poops only once a month? You may want to feed him/her a little more often than that. Every two weeks with a medium to large rat depending on your snakes size. They will fast at times but its good to have that regular schedule so your little critter is always having nutrients.

I feed him a medium every 3-4 weeks. Had him for 2 years so I tried 2 weeks and he is uninterested sometimes.

Some ball's don't like to eat as often, could be a temp thing potentially.

once a month is on the light side, but he looks pretty healthy, so, I dunno :shrug:

when you can start to see their spine is when you want to make them eat more but he looks chillin.

It's been many years since I've had any, but I used to have a pretty cool collection of boas, tarantulas, and a couple scorps.

I worked for a retic breeder/reptile shop for a while and learned a lot, and got to handle some pretty wild reptiles.
I'll see if I can dig up any old pics
