Humid soil & a small container, makes a scorpion happy. In a few mths, the scorpion is ready to be transfer to a bigger and more permanent tank.

Baby Scorpions? Yup, got those... They are for SALE, but not yet.. In a month time, if everything goes well.

**Just like Tarantulas, Scorpions do have venom. But different people got different reactions to the venom. Some will just itch, some will have a fever, some will be like mosquito bite.. its the allergy reaction from venom which is a bit dangerous.

Mexican RedKnee Tarantula

Mexican RedKnee Tarantula. This one is still a baby. But it can reach palm size in 1 year, with proper care, food & maintenance.

*Please note that ALL tarantulas have a certain amount of venom. Although most people are not affected by this species, some people may be allergic to the venom, or just more sensitive, making it a dangerous situation. This is one of the reasons that people should not handle a tarantula. Also, New World species of tarantulas like this one can flick hairs off of their abdomens, which can also cause a reaction, depending on the person. Affects of a tarantulas' natural defenses may vary between people. All tarantulas should be considered dangerous, so be careful, because you don't want to find out if you are allergic or more sensitive the HARD WAY!

NO to HR669



What is HR 669?
H.R. 669 stands for House Resolution 669 and is titled "The Nonnative Wildlife Invasion Prevention Act". It is a bill currently before Congress that if passed will change the way that the US Government classifies animal species that are not native to the United States. H.R. 669 will make it illegal to breed and sell many animals that are very common in the pet trade.

Why should you care about HR 669?
Anyone with pet fish, birds, reptiles, or small mammals will be affected by this bill. Any company selling product or services for pet fish, birds, reptiles or small mammals will be affected by this bill. Would you be impacted by "The Nonnative Wildlife Invasion Prevention Act"?

* Virtually all fish in an aquarium are not native to the United States
* Most pet birds are species not native to the US
* Most reptiles kept as pets are not native to the US
* Hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs and ferrets are not native to the US

What can you do to stop HR 669?
Pet owners support the concept of a risk based approach to non-native imports, unfortunately H.R. 669 as drafted does not provide a constructive way forward.

You can help by standing up and making your voice heard. Let your Representative know that you oppose H.R. 669 as drafted and the financial and/or emotional effect it will have on you, or your friends, or your family members if it passes. The link below will allow you to send an email to your Representative in Congress and even give you the option to follow up with a phone call.

Animals need Vitamins & Supplements too.

For the best health condition, a supplement of Vitamins & Calcium is highly recommended. Hey, Humans take it for better health, then pets can also benefit from this.
My choice is Vionate & Rep-Cal. Rep-Cal is a reptile specialty supplement as reptiles will highly benefits from the extra calcium.
But remember too much of things is also bad. So i only dust their food, and give them alternate days supplements. ;o)

How are seller & a hobbies different. As a hobbiest, their pet are usually in excellent health. They interact, and love their pet, where the pet will interact back, causing a very good relation & from that lowers their stress level & simultaniously inprove their health. Where else a seller, would just keep the pet, just so it can live, with health just average or maybe below. About interaction with their pets, that i havent find out. But as seller sell in volume, will it have the time to care & love them all?? Thats for you to find out..

Fleece for SugarGlider

001_2009-02-16 Sugar Glider Fleece

I got a few fleece, which i will make into some toys & sleeping pouch for my SugarGlider. Why fleece? Because its soft, dont absorb moisture, keep the sugarglider warm & it wont make its claws stuck, if you were to use cotton. Google it.. i have done my research.

Common Malayan Racer

I didnt not caught this snake in the jungle or in the wild. It enter my house, so it isnt consider wild-caught, hehee.. rather home-caught... So if you find this snake squirming into your house, dont kill it.. its brunei own local snake. use a broom and its bin, sweep it and release it back to the wild. Becareful tho, as all wild animals are aggresive & will bite. But dont worry if you get bite by this racer, as there is no poison. But a possibility of a cut will happen.. ;o)

Dont worry, i will release it back to the wild. Or if it feeds, i will keep it.
