[…]glass via suction cups, allowing for easy movement so that various areas of the terrarium (cave, basking site, etc.) can be monitored. I find the thin, 59 inch-long wires connected to the probes to be especially valuable. In smaller enclosures, the wires can be rolled up and secured with a […]
[…]be provided. Ambient temperatures should be maintained in the range of 70-76 F, with a basking site of 82 F. Breeding Captive breeding, although far from regular in the past, is becoming more common. A 3-4 month cooling off period at 50-52 F will stimulate reproduction. Clutches […]

NYC’s participation, sponsored by such groups as the NY Turtle and Tortoise Society and Save the Frogs, highlighted local issues, including the fact that an ever-popular eatery, Nathan’s Famous onConey Island, continues to serve frog legs.

[…]The New Guinea Snake Lizards under my care thrived at an ambient temperature of 82-85 F, with a basking site of 96 F and exposure to UVB. The diet was comprised of Brown Anoles (Anolis sagrei) and House Geckos (Hemidactylus spp.) that had been collected inFlorida (where both are introduced). […]
[…]easily limit costs. A Garter Snake needs only a 20 gallon aquarium with (in winter) a low-wattage basking bulb, and a diet of minnows and earthworms…much less expensive than a 6 foot-long Boa Constrictor kept in a custom-made cage heated year-round with powerful bulbs and feeding upon pre-killed rats.
