Reptiles - November 2006

Sometimes ill have a date over and my boa will be in his cage and the second they notice it, they jump back or freak out. I don't understand how a 3 foot boa curled up in a secure cage is that scary. A small dog is more dangerous than a a small boa constrictor. I ask why they are so scared and its always 'I don't know, its icky' or something stupid like that.

Does any one know about how long the shedding process takes for a red tailed boa??? I don't know if age plays a factor so . . . she is 3 and about 2 1/2 to 3 feet long. PLEASE someone help.

I'm looking for an informative website that will give me general care information for keeping toads as pets. I've been browsing all day and all I can seem to find is a lot of information on poisonous toads and fire-bellied toads, which is an aquatic toad and I need information about how to keep just a regular, common toad. I used to keep them as a pet when I was a kid and I'd like to try it again. I used to have a bunch of informative books but they're long gone (I think my mom sold them in garage sale, in fact). So if you could refer to me to a link, I'd appreciate it. Thanks! I'm also open to any information you have to offer. Thanks again.

If there is no such thing, what about a small sized turtle, that will remain small for about four years (college).

Thanks!

Lol, besides the fact that they make frogs and not chickens, what is the difference between frog eggs and chicken eggs?

Okay, here's the story, i just got an Iguana on Wednesday and, well someone left it at PetsMart and PetsMart didn't know how to take care of it or they didn't have space enough for it. So they let a friends of our have it and she gave it to us for free. So now we have a 3 foot to 4 foot long Iguana in our home. She is very sweet and loves attention. I know now that she needs to be handled everyday or she will be mean. i have another question for you all how are you suppose to hold a Iguana? because last night i got her out of her box and played with her in the floor and she tried to get away so i picked her up by her stomach area she started kicking and scratching me (it now looks like i slit my wrist) and I'm afraid if i hold her tail, she will let it fall off like lizards do if they get caught be prey. At the moment she it and a plastic container because we don't have cage for her. And one last question, would it be OK to put her in a bird cage to live in? would it be safe enough?

I really want a python but they are super expensive and they get to big. I want something that can be hand tamed and that would make a good handheld pet. I already have the perfect home for one just waiting to move in so I am putting this question out in hopes that someone has some ideas for me...thanks ahead of time for responses.....
