Dragon was not a nice lizard. Here's his story: I got a call in Nov. '05 from the local Humane Society, that a woman in a neighboring town had this big lizard...
... So sorry, Lisa:( The death of any creature saddens me especially one that has gone through so much:( It was nice that he had found his final home with you ...

I was talking to a friend whose son just had a double lung transplant. This guy's doctor told him that for respiratory aliments, snakes are the worse animal to...
I suppose it depends on the snake. If someone's keeping a coral snake, there could be respiratory problems if someone got an envenomated bite from one.. God...
Would space heaters be good to use for keeping a snake? If so, is it possible to get a battery operated one? God bless, Jason Irelan Would space heaters be...
Well, that is certainly true. In this case, I would that for a non-venomous snake, they would not affect a person. I mean, they are fairly hypo-allergenic...
A space heater would keep a room warm but they are more dangerous AND you still need to provide some sort of temperature gradient for a snake. Don't think they...
Hey folks- I've got a question about a sickly corn snake. She went off her food a while ago, but only recently did I see that she is losing weight since...
... took a garter with a wound to a vet and she said baytril wouldn't help but I think it had been helping. On her advice, I stopped the baytril and the garter...
I've had my cornsnakes do this from time to time - they are rescues, and I'm not sure exactly how old they are, but definitely not 14! Poor old girl... I...
Just wanted to let y'all know my old corn snake with the strange puffiness passed away on Tuesday. I just heard back from the vet, and he supported what my...

I'd never heard of it before, but it sure does give me something to look out for. What on earth causes this, do you think? And there is no treatment? Did the...
The vet's name is Dr. Sealock (don't know his first name off the top of my head), in Rockwall, TX. My "regular" vet recommended him for my herps; his place is...

Any chance I can have that garter snake? You'd have to explain to me what tubing is; but if it's not difficult to do, I'm sure I could handle taking care of...
Serpi was having issues with a lump in front of her vent that was most prominent when she was hungry. It looked like she had to go potty, but she was hunting...
Hi Jason, Tubing means using a syringe attached to a feeding tube to feed liquid food or medicine to a snake that's not well. You insert the tube down the...
