    General Question about BP

    First, does anyone know of a few reliable online reptile stores? Second are there any threads about BP scale rot that I am missing. I have a few pictures and want to compare to see if my BP is showing signs of scale rot.

    Thanks in advance

    Re: General Question about BP

    Welcome to BP.net!

    There are some very good on-line stores. What are you looking for? Knowing what you need will help us give you better advice.

    Search the Husbandry Section for scale rot. There have been some posts recently on the subject.

    What kind of set up do you have right now for yor BP?

    Re: General Question about BP

    Thank you sooo much for the quick response, thankfully i do not think that Kah has scale rot. I will know more when she sheds. As for what types of items i am shopping for : hides for an adult BP, under-tank heaters, thermostats, heat emitters, etc. Just about anything reptile related that can be found all in one place.

    As for Kah's set up..100gallon reptarium 2 hides(one for moister/heat and the other for cooling) 2 150 watt heat emitters and a day light(twelve hour timer). Occasionally I will use red or black light at night in the winter. Lots of fake foliage and one live reptile plant.

    Info about Kah: Sex is not determined. Going on 6yrs old. 3 years ago Kah had really really bad blisters and is recovering very well. Up until December Kah ate every 2/3 weeks. Kah has been fasting since then and this is the first time that Kah has fasted ever in 6 years(kinda worried). I havnt had Kah sexed because there arnt any vets within 25 miles that want deal with reptiles(know of any in Iowa?).

    That's a pretty big enclosure for a BP!
