Hi, this is my third question, and I have many more i may need to ask.
Anyway, the pet store that is close to me sell live rodents, and every time i feed my snake,Reggie, i stand right there in case something bad happens. I want to start feeding him pre-killed rodents, but i don't know how to put the poor little guys out of there misery. My snake was never eaten dead prey before, so any information would be helpful. If i can do this, i can put a whole lot into my freezer without having to go to the pet store, which is like 20 miles away and is a pain in the butt to get to. I live out in the little dusty town of Forgan Oklahoma, right in the middle of nowhere. Could i order some in bulk, or kill them myself,( I don't really want to do that unless i have to.) Any Ideas on how i should do this?

I have a full grown bearded dragon, and I also have a small landhermit crab. (less than an inch in length). Would it be alright so put the crab in with the dragon? I don't want the dragon to try to eat it. I don't know if a dragon would be interested.

I have just one african dwarf frog and a one gallon tank. I clean the tank one day and the next the water is cloudy again. Is there a quiet filter small enough for a one gallon tank? or would a cleaner fish work? Please Help Me.

i don't mind cleaning the tank once a week for my res but whenever they eat, they spit their food everywhere and its causing the water to smell and dirty faster than usual. should i put the food in a basking dry area instead of the water so the food won't go everywhere? thanks in advance guys!

I have a Mali Uromastyx and I am setting up a tank bigger tank for him. I bought a Humidity Gauge today and stuff it in his 25gal tank and its ready dead center in the moderate zone. Im not sure if they humidity will be any different once I get him in the 55gal tank. Is there anything I can do to get it to drop into the desert zone on the gauge? I dont keep water in his tank. I just mist his food so he can get his water that way.

I lost my tortoise on Saturday evening when he was walking around the backyard. I always let him out in the backyard but he is always easy to find. But now he is NOWHERE in the backyard. He is a russian tortoise. I have found two holes under my fence that lead to different neighbors houses and I have already checked one and I was going to check the other neighbors house today. My dad says that he is still in the backyard but I know he isn't, my dad also says that a tortoise wouldn't go under a fence but what do you guys think? Where else would he go?!?!? My dad said that he would show up eventually but my Tony(my tortoise) goes where he wants to all the time. What should I do? Where is he? He is 4.5 inches long.

our desert tortoise is covered with a white, chalky "fungus" on his shell. It started at his tail and in a day or so was all over the shell. We bathed him and washed it off. Any info on this?

Hi. I posted a similar question a few minutes ago, but it was asked incorrectly.

I am seeking a male sulcata tortoise, any age. I am from the Ottawa area. I do not have access to a car. I was wondering if there was anyone in here who breeds and sells tortoises, or simply has some to give away. Im not sure how much one would cost me - im a science university student.

If you do breed and are willing to sell tortoises, would you please contact me. Thank you very much for your time and patience. Cheers!

I applied at a tortise rescue/adoption place but there has been no response.(over a month)
What types of tortoise are compatable and where to get them?
The ones at the pet store are tiny.
I am in Chatsworth Ca. 91311
