It’s been hot, but hell yea. It’s summer. Good times. Things are going strong at the TDI. Our breeding projects are moving right along. One of our new female veiled chamelons laid a nice clutch of 72 eggs yesterday. Those will be ready right around christmas time. We just got an adult trio of Jungle Carpet Pythons from Jeff Hartwig. They are badass! We also picked up a proven pair of Children’s and Spotted Pythons.

The new tegu cage is pretty much done. The doors are getting painted today and hung tomorrow. I figure by Monday we’ll have them in the cage. They will be off display for a couple weeks once we move them. We are still bringing Waterland tubs into the store. They will be a permanent in-stock item. But i expect those to be a couple weeks before we get them.

We will likely have an animal order next week sometime. We have been buying so many animals from local breeders lately we haven’t had to order anything in. But there are a few items that need ordering.

Anyway, it’s Friday. Lots to do as usual. Until next time…

Good Morning Earth. It seems that our planet is till intact. So what a week. Our new Tegu cage is just about done. We busted ass to get that done this week. And the weather was not much help when we were outside cutting lumber. But alas, we have just a few finishing touches. We probably won’t get the Tegus moved until the last week of the month. But it’s coming. They are gonna love this thing.

So we only have one demo today. We have a few dotted through out the coming week. Otherwise this week doesn’t hold much. Just wrapping up some projects and trying not to sweat to death. We had to downgrade almost all of our heat lamps in the shop this past week. We had cages reaching like 118 degrees. On that note, make sure you all check your cage temps. When it gets warmer outside, it gets warmer inside. And when your room temperature rises, so does your cage temperature. So the bulbs you used in the Winter are likely to strong for the summer. We have already had two customers overheat and kill their animals. I would hate to see any more of that.

So today is snake feeding day, and our snake feeder can’t be here. So we need to get cracking on all that. Until next time…

So we will be at Salute to Scott tomorrow at the O’Fallon Park. We will be setup next to Harley Davidson. If you’ve never been, you should swing out there. There is all sorts of free food and beverages all day long. You can find out more by clicking here.

We started construction on the new tegu cage. It should be done sometime next week. After that’s completed, we will be bringing some new caging into the store. We are going to begin stocking Waterland tubs for turtles and tortoises. We will also bring in the Apogee Reptariums for chameleons. The reptariums don’t look as nice as the aluminum screen cages, but they are half the price. So they make a great option for Chameleon setups on a budget.

So i don’t have much in the way of an interesting post. Here’s some cool vids.

So have you ever heard about those people who eat crayons? They have some sort of thing going on upstairs and it makes them eat crayons. Interesting…

Anyway, happy Saturday everyone! We have several parties today. Good times. We were at the Goddard School in Shiloh yesterday. That was tons of fun. We worked with about 80 preschool age kids. Doing that is like going into a time machine. It’s so cool.

Speaking of time machines, i was watching Back to the Future 2 the other night. Old school. I don’t think the second movie got very much credit. It was totally weird. If you don’t remember it, you should watch it.

Sooooo, we are now shipping Waterland tubs through the website. They are an awesome way to house multiple or large water turtles. We will be bringing them into the shop some time this summer. We are going to use one for our red ear sliders. I think they’ll really like one of those.

So, now some entertainment. How about a glimpse into video gaming future?

Anyway. It’s the start of the weekend. Time to make it happen. Until next time…

Good morning. Kind of a sleepy start today. Crazy weather in STL. It was 90 something degrees yesterday and now it’s in the 60’s. Crazy…

Not much going on today. There are a bunch of odds and ends that need to be tackled. Today is a good day for that sort of stuff. We are setting up four more holding tanks for rats today. We are aiming at keeping more rats on hand for the summer rush. All those snakes are really eating now. Lots of rodents.

On that note, enjoy a game…
