Reptiles - September 2007

I am looking to get a corn snake for a first family pet snake, and I'm having trouble finding out whether they are covered under the NSW reptile keepers licence.

Our frogs are a couple years old. We know that they eat insects , but never thought they would eat a whole bird, It's amazing!

I have leopard geckos and I use teh reptile carpet and nothing else is that ok??? I know sand is bad for them and well I like the carpet because it is easy to clean and I dont have to worry about them eating it. I was just wanting to make sure.

I have two leopard geckos that I purchased at the same time as a friend of mine they were all about the same size. They are about 2 1/2 months old now and her gecko is twise the size of both of mine. My leopard geckos eat about 7-10 medium sized crickets daily and they are covered in calcium every day and other vitamins 2 a day. They shed regularly and they're tails are getting larger Im not conderned with their health they look healthy. But I dont have them in a 10 gallon tank right now. I was wondering if the size of the terrarium could stop the growth of the leopard geckos. Please give me some advise, I love my two leps and I want them to get big and beautiful.

I just got a baby ball python this past Saturday (it's Tuesday now). I bought him at an exotic pet/reptile show and the guy working there said I should feed him a pinky every 7-10 days... He's 2 months old and pretty skinny :( Should I feed him 2 pinkies a week or 1 every 4 days or something different? Thanks!

He does alot of sleeping and not a whole lot of moving. Hes about 3 years old. I've had him since he was a year old. He wasn't all that active then either. Do beardies usually spend their time lounging around as they get older or are they supposed to be active like they are when tiny babies? He has a heat lamp/uv lamp and a heat pad, so he is plenty warm.

I have a young (about 13" long) Iguana. He's picky about what he eats.
What do you feed your Iguana?
Thanks in advance!

I feed my chameleon locusts and occasional wax worms as that is what he likes. m any sites say be careful of wild caught insects because of insecticides but most are ok in an area where they aren't used. How would I be able to tell whether they are used or not? I imagine in a farm area there would be more risk. Do insects stay fairly local to where you see them or do they move around a lot? I think I will stay on the site of caution and not feed him any but I would like to think it was safe for him to eat the odd spider etc if he saw them when I had him out of his enclosure.
Thanks in advance!

I've had him for 3 years, and I bought him as a hatchling, and right now he is 2'7" and about the width of a pen, maybe a marker in his most thickest spot. I know someone else with an older one, and hers just seemed to grow faster. I dunno, but any help/insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
