GECKO DUDE (9/12/2008)

Hey welcome to the forums. Have you tried live pinkies for your sand boa, or braining, or if all else fails you could try a pinkie pump but that is a last resort

Well I am getting desperate at this point... I actually can not find anywhere to get live pinkies here in Waco, closest is 100 miles away... ugh! I had tried braining, no luck. I finaly ended up force feeding her a small lizard tail lastnight.

Tell me about a pinkie pump... I have a childs medicine syringe... how do i prepair the pinkie?

I hate to do this but it's getting to the point that I feel she will not make it much longer and honestly it's stressing me out!

Hey there Reptile Dude! Yeah, there are a lot of herp lovers up there! What part of MN are you in? If you are anywhere near Buffalo, MN there is a GREAT herp store there called Critter Country! The owner is really cool and has a good selection of herps!

Trees changing up there yet??

What! I live 15 minutes away from Buffalo and go there frequently! I never knew that there was a herp store there...well I guess I know where one of the places I'm going to go to this weekend will be...

Nope. Well, except for the very few annoying trees who must remind us that summer is slowly grinding to an end.

Cool!!! Small world! Yeah, it's Critter Country and the owner is Carrie... VERY cool lady who LOVES herps!!! She actually has my Albino Gopher there now... (tear, i miss her!) so if you stop in be sure to say hi for me! =)

15 min out huh? what city? I lived out in that area in a few different places!

Have a great weekend man!!!

welcomei also,have a kenyen hes anertheristic

You have a VERY beautiful KSB!!! Hey, did you had any problems getting your KSB to eat when he/she was young? Mine is going on 2 months now w/o eating and it's stressing me out! I have tried every trick I have heard of... I'm really worried she's not going to make it. Any tips??

What kind of substrate have you found to work best? I have heard sanitized playground sand and to keep it kind of moist... I am using a combo right now of Zoo Med Repti Sand on the hot side of the tank and Zoo Med Repti Bark on the cooler side... she seems to be okay with both. And do you keep a moisture box in the cage for yours?

Sorry I am asking all these questions, but care of this KSB is much different than my Gopher was and I am worried that she's not going to make it...

Oh, also... did yours have any problems molting? I had to give mine several warm baths in order to help her out...

Any tips on KSB care would be GREATLY appreciated!
