it has a black face with yellow stripes and feet (thats the only color on it) it has 3 spikes on the top of its shell and spikes all around it like a snappin turtle but the colors are like a painted one
i found this turtle and wanted to know
could a painted turtle and a snapping turtle mate to make such a baby?
we're first time keepers of a chameleon and we've had him for 5 months with no problems until now. over the past few days hes been really sleepy and hasn't been opening his eyes, and when we pick him up he wont wake up properly. today we've noticed gray bruise like patches on the bottom part of his eye lids and he keeps rubbing his head on a branch. we've been told by books and online that so little is know about them that the vet most likely cant do anything. has anyone had this problem? any ideas to solve this and the whole family are worried about him.
There's a privately owned pet store near where I live, and they often get in baby american alligators and american crocodiles. It surprised me when I first saw them, but they said they're legal to own, and that the state doesn't have a ban on owning exotic reptiles, which include alligators and crocodiles. Even though the state doesn't ban them, they said certain cities may have bans on reptiles in general, but not the city I live in. Doesn't this seem a little weird that Joe Blow could walk into a pet store, buy a crocodile as a baby, and then own this animal that could live well over 100 years which has the capability of mauling it's owners, children, and peoples pets? Don't get me wrong, I don't nessecarily think it should be ILLEGAL to own one, but I think in order to own an animal like this, you should have a permit and you should have the required space that it needs, but here you don't, does anyone else disagree with the selling of crocodiles and alligators to just anybody?
