QUOTE(valjean @ Dec 5 2008, 10:31 AM) agree with you. keep all your know how in your pocket. be in shieldtox or not. once you are in, prepare to go court and face those fierce bugger asking you lots of question. prepare money to pay fine as well and some money to give when you are in the cell. so that you get a place to sleep and some better food. I know a guys who is in the cell for 3 yrs in USA because of pets ... now still carry on with his business "legally" ... That why I don't give a dam to those pm me regarding unlegal stuf  Now focus on my stingrays breeding project

Hi Gurus, i have a doubt here needed your advises very much. 1. Why is a small T always bit a big T? a. Dislike? b. Hungry? c. Naughty? d. Others?
2. What should i do? Seperate both?

what T? more details on that?
depending on species/situation, it might just be a male trying to mate with a female.

Majority if not all of the ST in our market are WC thus missing a nail or two or even chip shell is commonplace !! At 50 and 55 mm I will rule out the Male trying to mate theory !!

Sulcatas are originally African based, so something semi-arid or dry would be best...try using big woodchips or recycled paper pellets.. Avoid alfalfa or woodbark.... Sulcata will grow to large proportions if u intend to keep them for many many years...otherwise they are pretty cute fellas... Just my 2 sen  Cheers
