Reptiles - August 2006

I've had this snake for about six months now. I think it's a little over a foot long. I had heard they were very skittish when young, so I haven't tried to handle it much.

Would this be a good time to start trying? Any advice on timing and approach appreciated.

Someone suggested I first try this in the bathtub with the drain closed so it wouldn't go far if it slithered faster than I expected.

He only basks for a little while and spends most of his time in the water.

I'd like to know what everybody's favourite pet snake you have or wish to have.

I currently own:
1. 5 ft Ball python
2. Yearling Guyana Red Tail - 24 in
3. 14 ft, 127lbs Burmese Python - Green Phase
4. 19 ft, 179lbs Reticulated Python - Calico

I can't pick a favourite out of mine because I've had the Ball for a long time, and I rescued the Burm and the Retic from abusive owners. And the RTB was a gift from a close friend.

If yes, can you tell me how it is to own one? can you find them in north american pet stores. not mountain horned lizards, but calotes, a lizard native to south and southeast asia.

my brother gave the two turtles a bath and one of the turtles' eyes are swollen and red when they are closed. he think that the temperature of the water may be a factor. i went on line to search for a solution and have found some answers. However, none seem to match the turtle's condition. I would like the address to a vet that specializes in reptile health.

I've tried feeding him, turtle pellets, turtle flakes, carrots, fish, romane lettuce, and some seafood/vegtable aquatic turtle yummies. He's starting to get a soft shell and I'm concered for my little guy. I'm a college student and can't afford a vet bill for a baby turtle. Right now i'm trying to force feed him with an eyedropper but I'm having a hard time getting him to open his mouth. He is about 4-5cm so I would assume he's pretty young. I've had turtles before and have never had a problem feeding them. Any advice would help.

The snakes are about 5-6 inches long. Where is the mother and how many eggs do they usually lay? Haven't seen anymore in about 3 days, does this mean there were only three?

They have always been on a cricket diet and that is simply all they will eat. They are uninterested in the worms, but I successfully got them to eat a couple via assist-feeding. I will buy more crickets later, but I want to get them to eat the worms too. I thought I would try something new, and I'm too stubborn to give up now.
