First Post In Exotic Pet Section !

lol saves any confusion I guess - if I had a beetle it would be called Alexander after the children's favourite
 
I used to collect bugs but I gave it up. Girls don't like creepy crawlies haha to bad I really miss ant farming and watching them build their colonies
 
Cover the tank with a sheet when you're entertaining! ;) I have to cover everything when my parents come cos they fear anything living without fur. Whenever I'm entertaining I just cover them with towels :/
 
Yup. Even the fish. :(
My folks don't visit much so my fish stay uncovered.
Anyways, I got a snail today. Called him Thor. lol.

He's only a couple hours old. I bought this beauty for a hefty 4$. I'll try to snap a pic when he's out and about. :snap:

A fraser's land snail.
:D
 
He is a big snail remember. In France he would be worth thousands. ;) shell is around 7-8 cm from bottom to top. :eek: he is still growing too.

He's come out and had a slime scared the living *word* out of my beetles. Didn't have camera on me though.
 
They're coming:

Sorry for blurry pics. the lighting was so poor and I didn't have the heart to flash him. :)


Darn it! I lost all pics from earlier. :(
 
How did you find keeping centipedes? I've always wanted to keep tarantulas but my mums boyfriend is scared of spiders :-( can't wait tiller move out.. A room for creepy crawlies and a room for fish ;-)
Think im aiming too high? Im only a student lol ;-)
 
Centipedes? I have kept them and I still have a few wandering around the house somewhere :whistle: .
Those guys are major escape artists.
I do not treat centipedes as insects, more like poisonous snakes that you would only touch with a 10 foot pole. I have felt the wrath of those little buggers and it is not pretty. A sting from the tiger centipede compares with a sting from a 2 foot long tandanus ( that's another story ;) ) . :)

So, should you keep centipedes in your mum's home?
It's up to you but as your mum is afraid of spiders she is probably not going to like centipedes crawling across her pillow. A less harmful centipede type creature is a millipede which don't bite, are completely harmless and are also escape artist.

P.S- I also hate spiders. :p
