    Exclamation I got asked!

    My local herp haunt has asked a huge thing of me!!!!! They have asked that I do a class with Q&A once a week for an hour for any new reptile owners, customers of theirs and people with questions about their animals. It will be free for charge to any one attending. I am going to be covering everything from setups with demos on enclosure setup to common problems and illnesses. I am hoping to have the care sheets available from this site for anyone that needs them. And have the occasional guest speaker. I know I will have loads of questions for you guys brushing up on some of my lizards and colubrids(sp).

    Please wish me luck.

    Hey, that's great! It's nice that your local herp place wants to set something like that up for their new customers, and really good of you to do it! Let us know how session #1 goes.

    This came about after me and the owner got to ranting about "impulse buyers" and the harm it causes animals. So he got a spot in his shop for me and I can use any of his animals and equipment. In the long run it'll help the animals and the people better enjoy their companion.

    Well each month I'll be focusing on a particular animal. I.e balls one month, BD one month leos one month and so on. Each class will deal with an area of this animal I.E intro into the animal one week, Proper set up and husbandry the next and so on. After each class I'll do my best to field any herp related questions or better explain something I went over. I will have hand outs of what we went over so people can enjoy and not have to take notes.
