This is a regional chat group where people with the same interest in herps can come together and discuss their animals with like-minded people. This will also be used as a portal to other herp related groups in order to help with transports and possible temporary foster homes for those going to new homes.

I ask that you remain on-topic, however some off-topic posts are o.k. Please use "OT" in the subject line.

Please keep the posting civil. There will be no flaming or rudeness allowed. People will not accept help if they don't feel welcome. When that happens...it's the animal that suffers and we accomplish nothing. If this simple request is not followed then the member in question will be put on moderation or banned. I don't foresee any problems here, but it's out front and in the open so everyone understands.

Many herps require UVB. I strongly suggest looking into these two places on the Internet for what works for your animal:
