Moorhen chick rescue
So while out fishing with daffy from @the_irish_wild we came across a Moorhen chick in distress being washed down the river towards the rapids in the river so we picked it up and returned it to the riverbank near where we could hear a mother Moorhen calling but unfortunately about an hour or two later we spotted the chick being washed down river again so we scooped him up again and decided to take him home with us and he has been with us nearly a week now and is doing really well eating well and developing a great personality we have named him Meep and I think he's already grown since we found him so hopefully we can bring him back to the wild when he is an adult but until then we have a Moorhen living with us for the foreseeable future so follow daffy on Instagram @the_irish_wild for daily updates on how Meep is doing 😁

Talking about MBD (metabolic bone disease)

So I ended up with another sick reptile so I decided to talk about MBD and the importance of proper lighting for your reptile along with proper diet and always remember to research the animals u are planning to get before u actually aquire them as petshops rarely know anything about the animals they are selling so probably will not sell u what is actually needed ALWAYS DO YOUR RESEARCH FIRST!!!!!
Tarantula rehousing and pumpkin patch pairing

Attempting to pair my pumpkin patch tarantulas (hapalopus sp colombia) they mated successfully last year but the female ate the sac at day 20 😩 so hopefully it will go better this time we also had to rehouse my H. Vileosella Tanzanian chestnut tarantula because of some mold in the enclosure

Peru purple an enclosure upgrade to somthing slightly bigger hopefully her next one will be into her adult enclosure but this gives her more space for the moment even tho she has chosen to Web up on the door of the tub 😂

So as I ended up in a conversation on Facebook about this I decided to cover the topic of level of care for exotics it applies to all animals but I was focusing on tarantulas in this and specifically about waterbowls and substrate as I see they are the two things that are most discussed online my stance being always provide a water dish and for terrestrial species enuf substrate to burrow even ...

    The female isn’t albino as she has black eyes she is what is called oligomelanic or leucistic. Normally an albino crossed with a wild colour form (homozygous fish) results in 100% dark coloured fish that will carry recessive albino genes (heterozygous fish) etc. 👍

    I'm eager to get my first T, and I heavily considered getting this species. But people on forums really complain about how often they try to escape and that they are not on display often. I was prepared to deal with a fast and skittish breed, but not one that tried to escape ALL the time, especially if it isn't on display enough. I keep wondering if those people just had bad husbandry because the people who are happy with them sound like the complete opposite experience. I'm sad tho. I wanted a semi-arboreal or arboreal species really bad. I'm now considering the Mexican flame knee, Chaco golden knee, and Brazilian black instead.

    hello pal i have two Oscars in a Juwel 450ltr tank (75 gallon) , i am very concerned as all im seeing on youtube is 2 Oscars have to be in a 125 gallon tank ?? yet you have two in a 100 litre tank , please dont think im having a pop at you but id like to breed these fish and am not sure whether im coming or going plz could you help me out as obviously you have some idea of what your doing , is a 450ltr (75 gallon ) tank big enough or not , i also have two 120 litre tanks ?? any advice would be greatly appreciated ;) ps im using a Fluval F5 exterior filter plus the Juwel interior filter that is built into the tank.

    • @rcaexotics2661
      @rcaexotics2661 3 роки тому

      Hi the confusion is that this is just a breeding tank that I remove the adults from once they have finished the breeding process they will only tolerate their babies for about a month after hatching and will eat them after that so it's much easier to alow them to breed in the tank u intend to raise the babies out in and then remove the adults back to their main tank around week 3-4 this is easier than allowing them to breed in a large 450L tank and trying to catch 50-500 babies and move them to a grow out tank 😜

    Hello. I've got wrigglers and as my Oscar's are in a tank with other cichlids, I removed them and hatched them with an egg tumbler. I'm on day three and lost a few with some eggs still to hatch. I have three questions. Do I only start feeding when they start free swimming? And how long do I leave unmatched eggs? I was very unprepared for this as my pair were adults that had never been together so it was a surprise for sure. I'll be using dried egg yolk as food or boiled egg yolk. How much do i feed and do i need to feed 4x a day? Hopefully next time they breed I'll be more prepared 😂

      It can be quite hard to tell as it's fairly common for two Oscars of the same sex to pair up and go through the breeding process but if u have a male and female u should see eggs being deposited on a rock and the male then will fertilise them so witnessing that is really the only way to know 😩
