Way off topic I know! Anyone know where i can get a Taxidermy Dog in a standing pose? Oh i'm in the UK so UK places would be good, or ones that deliver internationally. Thanks!

my doors on the side, got some runners from the DIY store and some 5mm clear acrylic, the guy at the shop cut and polished the edges for me too!! He said he could make anything I wanted out of acrylic so long as it was made out of flat pieces! I really want a clear vivarium now!

most things would look pretty bad except glass, the laminated vivarium I have would scratch easy with his nails! Just gonna have to try different things till I get something that works well.

i got some 5mm clear acrylic. I was tempted to have the whole thing made out of acrylic but was not sure how the beardie would cope. From what Andrew said it would have been nice! Oh well in 6 months time no doubt i'll get something else!

Went to the DIY Store and got some black enamel. Its tough, non toxic and safe for kids! Should be OK for my beardie as its pretty hard to scratch off.

I never thought of staining it, gonna go check out the stains in the DIY store now. I did wonder about the plexiglass a completely see thru vivarium would be ace but does it act as a giant green house making the temperature a bit unstable, also does it confuse the beardie and he runs into the...

I'm now the proud owner of a Bearded Dragon! Im extremely chuffed, he is fantastic! However, shelling out £90 for his vivarium kinda got me a bit puzzled after I put it together as it is relatively simple. After a quick measure I popped down the local DIY store, got some MDF and knocked one up...

sorry for dragging up an old thread, but this is quite close to what I want to ask and seems pointless of starting another thread. My cockraoches that I keep as pets (Cuban Burrowing Cockroaches) are on a breeding frenzy and wondered if I could feed the excess to my African Mantis to help...

Thanks for the quick response. I'd be getting two babies but I'd really have to hope the store knows how to sex them as I'd be getting off the net.

I'm interested in getting a Bearded Dragon and would also like to breed them. Hopefully someone on the site will have kept them. I've read keeping males together is not wise (obviously they're not gonna breed :) ) but is keeping a male and female together OK or should they be seperate and...

Thats ace! Thanks Anyone else had problems getting on the forum? Only just got on after a week!

Sure thing I have to get my camera sorted first and i'll take a few pics! Thanks for the info Dino I was kinda hoping for some pics of other people setups. My tank looks a little bare, few places for hiding water dish. I really wanted to add plants and stuff make it a palace!! LOL! :D Im not...

Anyone know of any great scorpion sites like this Mantid site!? I got my first scorpion today and after reading loads of books I still thirsty for more info and reading of other peoples experiences. Also my setup looks , ideal but , I would like it to look more natural. :?

One more thing, how do you know when the ootheca is about to hatch, I need to know when to get some food for the lil' guys. Currently feeding my mantis house flies and crickets which are too big!

cheers i'll try it, it was laid over a week and a half ago so is dry. All this waiting for it to hatch and its not even been two weeks!!

My African Mantis laid an ootheca about a week and a half ago and she has laid it onthe tank lid. The lid has holes large enough for the lil' guys to get through so want to move it. Can I prise it off? or make arrangements to cover the holes with mesh or something? Any help anyone? :?
