[…]and initiate digestion; food is consumed in liquid form, in the manner of spiders. Reproduction Eggs are inserted into living or dead plants, and hatch in 2-4 weeks. The nymphs resemble the adults (incomplete metamorphosis) and mature in 4-6 weeks. Captive Care Enclosure The aquarium should be covered and the […]
[…]artificial bromeliads, which are equipped with tiny “ponds” in which frogs can deposit their eggs or tadpoles, are very useful (please see photo). An easily-cleaned, bare-bottomed tank, tilted on one side to create a water section, is ideal for African Bullfrogs, Horned Frogs and other giants that require frequent water […]
[…]suitable space and proper pre-conditioning, either species may surprise you with thousands of eggs…and the tadpoles are as rabidly carnivorous as their parents! Cost The cost of ownership of each frog is about the same. Neither requires UVB exposure, and they do fine with similar diets, terrariums and heat […]
[…]Environment This turtle spends most of it’s time in the water, leaving only to bask or lay eggs. An adult male or smaller female (some females top out at 12 inches, while others attain 18 inches in length) will require an aquarium of at least 100 gallons in capacity, but […]
[…]would be most valuable to this snake and its relatives. Field observations indicate that 4-8 eggs are typically produced. Temperament Mexican Vine Snakes are notoriously high-strung, and should be viewed as creatures to observe rather than handle.

[…]via tongs to limit potential problems. Health Considerations Females may be troubled by retained eggs and other reproductive disorders if they do not mate. In order to avoid these life-threatening conditions, unmated females should be spayed. Gravid females need an appropriate nesting site…please write in for further information. Water Dragons are […]
[…]common species as fascinating as Kihansi Spray Toads (which produce tiny toadlets rather than eggs!), Blomberg’s Toads and the other rarities I’ve had the pleasure of knowing. Classification Toads and frogs are classified in the order Anura, which contains 6,396 members. The world’s 588 toad species are placed in […]
[…]outdoor carpets are preferable. Females without access to suitable nesting sites may retain their eggs; please see this article for information on captive breeding.

[…]pink mice can be offered 1-2 times weekly. Canned snails and grasshoppers, and hard-boiled eggs, can be used to provide variety. Nile Monitors and similar species fare well on mice and rats alone; whole freshwater fishes are an excellent rodent-alternative for Water and Merten’s Monitors. Food (other than vertebrates) should […]
[…]by consuming tiny flies, ants and other insects that might parasitize the tarantula or consume its eggs. The toad, in return, receives a safe, moist home and the protection of an aggressive predator. Scores of other tarantulas and spiders, as well as scorpions, millipedes, pill bugs, centipedes, mantids, roaches […]
[…](egg peritonitis); oxytocin injections usually resolve the problem quickly. The 6 -18 eggs may be incubated in moist vermiculite at 82-85 F for 55-80 days. Further Reading Turtle Water Quality Prepared Diets for […]
[…]call from concealed positions by day. Unlike most frogs, amplexus is dispensed with. The eggs, which may number over 100, are deposited on land, with the tadpoles being washed into nearby waterways by rains. Captive breeding needs more attention from private keepers and zoos – please write in for further […]
[…]over plants is a useful option. Breeding Well-nourished females may produce 2-3 clutches of 10-50 eggs yearly. Incubation periods of 6-8 months have been recorded, and the young reach sexual maturity 6-8 month of age. Captive reproduction can be tricky; please post below for further information. Handling Chameleons are best […]
