A lot of animals would rather deal with the rain than a pond. Think about it... Try giving your Beardie a "shower". He might like it.

Hmmmm, I'll try it but I dunno, I think he's hydrophobic. He never drinks from his bowl and he hates baths and he hates getting misted
I think he's just scared of the unknown. The previous owners didn't do a very good job raising em

It's not really all that weird, it rains in Africa. we just make sure the water is lukewarm, not cold.

Nero hates getting misted, but I caught him taking a bath a week ago. Haven't tried it with Tubs yet.

Very cool monitor. My friend's savannah is one of my favs in her collection.

And I had no idea there were such pretty garter snakes. Just gorgeous.

Yes that is a coastal, but that wiki has so much wrong with it

The correct name for coastals is Thamnophis elegans terrestris not Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis like the wiki states.

Poisonous?? never tried eating one.

No, but my actual parietalis will do See how easy it was for the author of that wiki to get it wrong, they are nearly the same in appearance.

Re: Took some pictures (including Chomper) + Vids

I do believe that Garters are the only POISONOUS snakes on the planet - i was watching a BBC documentary and it was mentioned on there - i know everyone makes mistakes but i would be surprised if it was wrong from that source.

It was love at first sight for me..

I was given one that refused to eat, after that I found myself wanting more. (Infernalis)

You can correct Wikipedia yourself actually if you have a Wikipedia account! I changed that one to the right name for you.
Check this out and tell me if you want me to change anything else to make it right

Is it true that garter snakes only have one tooth?
