Care of Reptiles

too salty, most plants will die if watered with sea water

Yes. The most common fish a Red Eared Slider will eat is Commet Goldfish.

Red eared sliders will eat fish, but fish are full of worms and parasites which will contaminate your filter. For an indoor slider I suggest only pellets and veggies. Plus they eat parts of the fish and the rest you would have to clean out right away. My slider loves just his pellets, he snubs romaine lettuce and any other veggie I have tried. Ice berg lettuce is not good for sliders either. I have a 4 year old slider that is 5 inches long he is in a 40 gallon tank alone.

Yes IF

- you have enough water so the toxins from the toads don't kill them

- the fish can survive in the same temperature range as the toads

- the fish are going to eat or nip at the toads

-the poison will not kill or make the other fish ill at contact such as a healthy Betta fish.

Lots of people keep feeder guppies with their toads. Sometimes the toads catch them. But is very rare. Mine didn't catch them.

no. baby turtles must hatch on land because the cannot breath underwater like fish do. they have lungs like you and I.

baby bull sharks eat small fish

Get a rock or a small turtle food dish and place lettuce, fruit, or pellets on the dish. Buy a pair and you can have one for water too.

The desert tortoise is neither venomous nor poisonous.

its possible that they can, if you get near them and they get scared their is a 98% chance that they can bite you and a 2% chance that they won't, so be careful if you get near a sea turtle ps. i love sea turtles its possible that they can, if you get near them and they get scared their is a 98% chance that they can bite you and a 2% chance that they won't, so be careful if you get near a sea turtle ps. i love sea turtles

Well, every ball python will be either male or female. But, the only way to tell is to have it sexed by a vet or to get a set of sexing probes (unless you are going to have a pro show you how to use these, never sex your snake yourself, you could injure or kill it.) If you are wondering why your snake won't mate though, there are lots of reasons. Breeding snakes in captivity can be hard. You will need to simulate a winter period and then gradually increase the temp and humidity (for both animals in separate habitats.) Once your fake weather has made it to "mating season" (about 2-3 months including winter period) you can introduce the female into the male's tank. If they hit it off great, it may take a few days. Don't feed them while they are together but be sure they have both eaten prior to mating. If they fight separate them and try again in a few months. A local zoo, vet or herpetologist can help you more. You may be able to get some advice from a local university too.

I think they could have meant in a sexual orientation way.

So in that sense, snakes are not able to be asexual. Animals have no sense of sexuality.

To maintain a healthy turtle's life it needs to have good nutrition, clean tank water, plenty of room, UV light, a basking area and a basking lamp. This is quite expensive to set up for the first time, but is relatively cheap to maintain. It is best to buy your new turtle young if you want to foster a good relationship (yes there is such thing!), but if that does not concern you than I recommend adopting one from your local SPCA or animal shelter for a small donation, as it will be cheaper and possibly saving the turtle's life. Baby turtles are mainly carniverous and need feeding at least twice a day - recommended by vets: bloodworms, pellets, frozen food and occasionally live food. As they age, turtles only need feeding once every day or two, become omnivorous and can be fed plants like spinach and lettuce in addition to their usual diet. NOTE~ a varied diet is essential for optimum health of your beloved pet! Clean your tank partially every week and/or completely every fortnight AT LEAST. It is easiest to use a gravel siphon that will clean the gravel at the same time as siphoning out the water. Remember to scrub any logs/stones/ornaments you might have in the tank to prevent bacterial/agae build-up. NOTE~ NEVER start a siphon with your mouth. Instead, fill the siphon with water, block both ends with your thumbs, place one covered end in the water and one below level and release thumbs! If done correctly the water will immediately start siphoning out. (It took me several tries to get the hang of it!) Basking is an essential part of any semi-aquatic turtles life, as it dries out their shell to prevent shell rot and fungal infection. Use BOTH a warm basking lamp and a UVA/B reptile light, of which the latter can be suspended inside an aquarium light hood. The basking area needs to be big enough so the turtle can be fully out of the water in some area, and should be stable. Many owners have come to grief when stacking rocks/logs and having them collapse and drowning their pet turtle! A siliconed ramp/platform or specifically made floating platform goes down very well. NOTE~ make sure the turtle can successfully climb onto the platform without much strain, or else the purpose of the platform is utterly defeated. NOTE: it is often easy to buy your new baby turtle with a tank suitable for it's adult size, to avoid having to pay a lot more money when buying a second tank. Plenty of room is one of the most important things an owner can give their pet. 150cm should be the MINIMUM for two adult red eared turtles, while the smaller Reeve's turtles can get away with two in a 120cm tank. Baby red eareds can get away with one in a 60cm tank until approx. 1 year of age. The water depth should be at least two times the length of the turtle's shell. Although the initial setup of the turtle and tha tank are expensive, mantainance costs are low and if you are passionate enough about animals, I am sure you will find your turtle a great pet!

Well you could always go onto google images and look it up but tortoises are animals with a hard shell on their back which look like an upside down bowl. They are reptiles and are sometimes slow but not often, with saggy dry skin. They are usually brownish in colour.

Grasshoppers are considered to be cold blooded as they use exothermic means to control their body temperature. This means that they control their temperature via external means by taking advantage of the environment around them. This would include things like sunning on rocks to warm up, or shading themselves to cool down.
cold blooded

I would say Taco because Tacos have shells and so do turtles. I agree but, depending on how old he is, i would say (no offense to the turtle, i love turtles) moldy, cus turtles are green and so is mold, or moss, u cud call him moss, but i also like taco

there really are only about 777,809 tortoises left but at this second three or less or even more has just died.

in their shells

Snails hide usually in between foliage at ground level, under rocks or planks, or anywhere that is not too hot and not too cold for them. Also where they cannot be easily seen by predators such as birds. That is why they come out into the open at night time and travel to good feeding places. They like the leaves and petals of many varieties of flowers, especially 'Cinerarias'.

There isn't much of a color variation between alligators and crocodiles. The biggest difference between the two animals is the shape of their jaws and teeth placement.

Baby leopard tortoises (the size of an infants 2 fists together) eat fine mince. slowly but gradually feed it lettuce leaves. as it grows bigger, it will select its own food from the garden, i.e, fat plants, spinach leaves, bougan villa flowers, green grass stems.

Usually corns stop growing at about 4ft, but can sometimes reach 6ft.

i have to turtles now and have many in the past. heres the thing, my turtles are red eared sliders and painted,they are fully aquatic.they can eat turtle food,fruits,vegetables, crickets,most bugs,and fish.you don't need to feed them fish though,turle food usauly has all the things turtles need but it is nice to mix it up a little and give them live food or actaul plants. most feeder guppies that you get at a pet store will be rosy red minnows or goldfish,turles like these but these fish don't have very many nutrients in them so you can't only feed them those fish. if you do get a fish that is better for them,they can live off that but do need some plants here and there.also the older the turtle,the more plants it will eat.

my point is you don't need to feed turtles fish ( I'm talking about the kind you would get from the pet store)unless you have an extremely exotic turtle like a snapping turtle who live off fish.you can also consider tortoises who don't eat fish either.

I feed my turtles fish just for a treat.i Usauly feed them turtle food and plants unless the fish are high in nutrients.

hope this helped

Actually, snakes are quite opportunistic and will eat carcasses they find in the wild! In captivity, it can be hard to get them to take dead prey, but with persistence and creativity they can successfully be switched. Live, warm prey is just a lot more tantalizing than dead cold prey, especially when your food is being handed to you regularly.

NONE ! Their natural diet is fresh meat. The size of the meal depends on the size of the alligator. Anything from rodents to large antelopes ! IF you try to feed it on 'household food' it will DIE !

pretend your somewhere you like and there are loads of people there you like or just happy things.

or pretend you have taken that nightmare out of your head and throw it out the window.

you can buy triop eggs on the internet or in toy shops in starter packs shops like toyr r us, argos internet sites like the netfysh.com or amazon
