[…]Simpsons TV show, the Monty Burns Toad had been hidden away in Columbia. Another surprise, a neon-orange Dart Poison Frog found in Panama, measures only 12.7 mm in length – the smallest among a huge array of tiny relatives. My favorites are the 14 species of Dancing Frogs recently found […]
[…]and was soon happily involved in fly-farming (I fed them moist dog biscuits, evaporated milk and orange juice, instead of the less-agreeable foods they preferred!). Food and Exercise in One Houseflies can be a vital source of dietary variety for smaller herps that need soft bodied prey. They are especially […]
[…]1975 and is presumed extinct. The Round Island Boa is oviparous, and changes in color from bright orange to grayish-brown as it matures.

[…]should be used, so be sure to research these topics before making your selection. For example, Spotted Turtles will be stressed by fast currents, Soft-shelled Turtles will kick sand about and dislodge intake tubes, the carapaces of Pig-Nosed Turtles are prone to bacterial attack in highly-oxygenated waters, and so on.

[…]than other species. Like the other popular crickets, it breeds year-round when kept warm. The Two-Spotted or Mediterranean Field Cricket, Gryllus bimaculatus, resembles G. veletis and some other American Field Crickets, but is larger and “meatier” (please see photo). However, it is equipped with powerful mandibles, so caution is warranted. […]
[…]on par with that of crickets, phoenix worms and waxworms, and below that provided by silkworms and roaches. Fat content stands at 5.21%, which is less than (considerably so, in many cases) that of all other commonly-used feeders. Please Note: The nutritional needs of reptiles and amphibians vary by […]
[…]have climbing opportunities. “High-style” aquariums make fine homes. A pair or trio of Spotted, Yellow-Throated or other small species can be kept in a 15-20 gallon aquarium. A 30-55 gallon tank will accommodate the same number of Standing’s, Madagascar or Giant Day Geckos. Always opt for the largest terrarium possible. […]
[…]relative was something of a surprise. Geminis’ Poison Frog is clad in “screaming” orange-red, similar to the related species pictured here, but without the areas of black coloration. It is known only from Panama’s Rio Belan Basin, where it seems limited to elevated sand ridges within rainforests. This unique […]
[…]On Long Island, NY, Eastern Tiger Salamanders may migrate to breeding ponds in February, and Spotted and Alpine Salamanders will cross snow for the same purpose. Wood Frogs occur within the Arctic Circle, and I’ve found Gray Tree Frogs hibernating beneath a mere 2” of leaf litter in NYC. Several […]
[…]in the incidental capture of rare and endangered species such as Wood, Bog, Blanding’s and Spotted Turtles. In the mid 1990’s, I spearheaded a project that sought to document mercury levels in Florida Soft-shell Turtles offered for sale in NYC food markets. Dangerous levels were found, but red tape and […]
[…]changing their behavior. Males in breeding condition may exhibit a deepening of coloration in the orange-tinted areas of the head and body, and may head-bob and erect their crests.

[…]offers camouflage among flowering bushes and sunlit foliage. The juvenile coloration of reddish orange or various shades of brown becomes green-flecked by age 4 months. Highly arboreal, Emerald Tree Boas rarely descend to the ground. Diet Emerald Tree Boas are nocturnal ambush predators, relying upon sight and sensory pits (labial […]
[…]by zoos and hobbyists alike. Some of my favorite US natives include the Narrow-Mouthed, Red-Spotted, Spadefoot, Sonoran Green and Marine Toads. Handling Toads learn very quickly where their meals lie, and will soon greet you as you approach their terrarium. They will even clamber up onto your hand to […]
[…]The information can be applied to most species, including Standing’s, Gold Dust, Giant, Spotted, Lined and Peacock Day Geckos. However, details will vary. Please post below for information on individual species. Natural History Madagascar is the center of Day Gecko diversity, but several species inhabit the Andaman, Comoros, and Round […]
[…]have a quite high metabolism, and does best when fed small meals every 3-4 days. Blue Tree or Blue-Spotted Tree Monitor, Varanus macraei This strikingly colored lizard only appeared in zoos in the late 1990’s, and was not named as a distinct species until 2001. Never-the-less, beauty and small size […]
[…]me in my tracks. Vivid red and yellow stripes line the blue-black body, while the underside is orange to red in color. Smooth, glossy scales add to the brilliance of these colors. The tail’s terminal scale is hard and somewhat sharp, leading some to mistakenly believe that the Rainbow Snake […]
[…]that require mere seconds to maintain, such as the Tetra Whisper In-Tank Filter. Current Spotted, Bog and other turtles adapted to slow-moving water bodies cannot abide strong currents in their aquarium; the same is true for hatchlings of nearly all species. An overly-powerful filter outflow can even be a […]
[…]longevity for a Rosy Boa is 29+ years (living at time of publication), and many captives approach and exceed age 20. Breeding Potential Both species breed reliably, and make an excellent introduction to this fascinating aspect of reptile-keeping. I especially like the fact that they bear live young, doing […]
