Ever hear of Service Lizards?

As most of my readers know, I'm also known as The Lizard Lady. I don't have a lot of lizards (well, I guess that's relative to most non-reptile folks), but I am currently breeding Leopard Geckos. I thought I'd give it a try to see if I could add reptile breeding to my currently short, but fun list of things I CAN do.

I didn't start this breeding project for the money. It was more a social experiment for me, to see if it was something I could actually do. And it's working for me! It's been a lot of fun, but at times can be overwhelming. At this point, I'm trying to find homes for my babies.

I've given 4 away to my local pet store and the store owner is selling them very inexpensively as a package deal with tank setups for them. The hubby and I like to support our local small businesses, and this seems like a great way to do that. I've put this store's info below.

I currently have 5 babies, 6 if you count the one I'm keeping. He/she was my first born and I named him/her "AdamEve". Get it, first born? I have 10 eggs still incubating, so more to come!

If you're local (Austin TX area) and want a gecko baby, I'm selling them for $20 each (that's negotiable too). All these babies are Tremper Jungle Phase leopard geckos. Send me an email if you're interested!

Enjoy some Gecko pictures...(some of Dave the Gulf Coast Toad too)!

Hi;

I don't know if it's my computer or yours, but your bio/profile (your entire left column) is not showing up right... it's at the bottom of your blog.

I stopped in to invite you to something I just thought of last night.

I've opened up Advertising space for pet related businesses.

I really admire what you do & I can say that with more honesty than most... I'm confined to a wheelchair too, so doing what I love in defiance of a disability & a society which would rather not see us, I salute you.

Let me know what you think of my site too... I look forward to your comments.

Aidana, I changed how the pix of my lizards displays today. Does this fix your viewing problem?

Thanks!

Yes, thank you...

Have you considered signing my guestbook on my side... I'd really like your feedback?

Also make not of the new ad space for businesses... If I can help you bring more awareness to what you do; I believe it would benefit both of us.

Workers free dog trapped in sewer pipe

MANKATO, Minn. (AP) -- The sound of barking underneath a street Tuesday led a team of city workers to a dog trapped in a narrow culvert - and you might say they used a backward approach to rescue the mutt. The sickly, scared dog was about 50 feet from the nearest entry point, but since the culvert was just 15 inches in diameter, the workers couldn't fit into it themselves. Not even offers of food could draw out the dog. "He was exhausted," said Tony Talamantez, a public works foreman. Then Talamantez and his colleagues had an idea. They rigged up a long video camera used to inspect drain pipes, and approached the dog from the back. They used the camera to nugdge the dog forward until he reached an entry point big enough for a person to pull him out. The camera recorded the rescue, showing the dog scampering ahead in fits and starts as the camera pokes him in the rear end. The dog wore no tags, only a worn collar. But Julia Gosen, animal control officer for the city, said ...

Crested Geckos - great pet for the disabled

Image
A few weekends ago at the Austin Reptile Expo, I had the opportunity to meet a really neat woman who breeds and sells Crested Geckos. Since I have lizards as pets and have written before about how great they are as pets for disabled folks, I thought I'd write about the Crested Gecko in particular. The woman I speak of is Kati of Kati's Crested's . She's here in Austin, TX. I had never held a crested gecko before this Expo, but I had seen them in a tank at a local reptile store. They are very kewl lizards! Soft to the touch, almost like suede. The one I held jumped from one hand to the other and held on with it's prehensile tail! The crested gecko originates from New Caledonia (an island east of Australia). Adults range from 6-9" in total length. In the wild, they are nocturnal, arboreal animals living in the forests. Most wild specimens are tail-less, presumably because they dropped their tails while escaping from a predator. All of Kati's cresteds are c...

Axe Me A Question

Go ahead and ask. Ask the questions you always wanted to ask someone in a wheelchair. Nothing is too embarrassing. You might as well ask me on this blog since you are somewhat anonymous and don't have to look me in the eye. What have you always wanted to ask someone in a wheelchair? Here, I'll start: Q: "Hi, my name is LaLaundria! I wanted to know how do you take a shower?" A: Well, LaLaundria, I sit down. On a shower chair. I have grab-bars installed in my shower/tub and my commode rooms to give me extra balance. A shower chair is a hard plastic chair made to fit in showers and tubs. I have a shower massage type shower head that helps get the water closer to my hair. Howze that? Ask away, no question is off limits! (Oh Jeez, what am I getting myself into!)
