What other pets do you have?

Caudates aside, I have-
A cat
Two Parakeets.

I used to keep a lot of animals, but with school and work our family's had to hold back quite a bit. :p
 
Wow, and I thought I had a zoo...
Well at least nobody else has a SHARK!:p
Wow NecturusLindsay! You have pet peafowl! Blue, Green, or purple(I've always wanted a muticus or a purple)?

Most of them are Blues, but we do have a few Greed Pied males that hang around and there's a flock of Whites down the road. Very cool birds. They eat all the poisonous snakes in the yard, and make great watch dogs. If anyone/thing comes into the yard at night they start yelling.
 
2 Dutch shepherds
1 German shepherd
1 Ragdoll kitten
1 Maine Coon kitten
2 cockatiels
3 Bufo brongersmai
2 Bombina orientalis

and a baby...:p
 
In addition to my caudates I have a few species of frog and toad, 1.5 pug dogs, half a chihuahua, and I think there may be a pair of teenage kids running around here somewhere too. We have a few snakes here, and I suspect my daughter has been hiding a hamster or some other form of snake food as a pet in her room. The house came with a nice population of some species of house centipede, so they are doing very well with all the crickets I have running around. I count them as pets based sheerly on their size and my wife's reaction to them.:p

Wow I've been looking all over the internet and only seen albinos for sale. That is pretty crazy. So even cheaper than most milks? They seem like they'd make good "replacement zonata"...they look remarkably similar.
 
2 leopard geckos (Ajax and Pheonix)
1 crested gecko (Iggy)
4 african dwarfies (Big Mama, Legs, Mojo and Pinkie)
1 catahoula leaopard hound/australian shepherd cross (Frankie Doodle)

1 german shephard/malamute/timber wolf cross (Koda)
3 other muts (Clowie, Daisy, Sophia)
4 cats (no idea what their names are...)
4 quarter horses (Alec, Dandy, Dusty, and Paris)
1 charolais steer (Snowflake...soon to be: "Mmmmm Yummm")
And of course my silly, smiley axie :happy:

A substantially smaller list than a lot of yall, but it's all I can really handle for the time being. I'll catch up sooner or later.

My wishlist includes: more cresteds, some newts, and (eventually) tegus and dart frogs.

I haven't looked online. I can only say what I've seen at expos. The one I was going to pick up at NARBC was $25 for most of the Lampropeltids.

  • Katia Del Rio-Tsonis:
    Dear All, I would appreciate some help identifying P. waltl disease and treatment. We received newts from Europe early November and a few maybe 3/70 had what it looked like lesions under the legs- at that time we thought maybe it was the stress of travel- now we think they probably had "red leg syndrome" (see picture). However a few weeks later other newts started to develop skin lesions (picture enclosed). The sender recommended to use sulfamerazine and we have treated them 2x and we are not sure they are all recovering. Does anyone have any experience with P. waltl diseases and could give some input on this? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
