I’ve really been debating on getting a pixie frog. I love amphibians in general and other than a red eyed tree frog they are the only ones that interest! So thanks for sharing yours!
Awesome! I love your upgrade videos sooo much 🥰 Also we currently have a 6 month old leopard gecko and he’s going to be upgraded from a 10 gallon to a 40 gallon! We’re gonna make a custom background with spray foam and everything and a loot of stuff for him to climb on :) Watching your videos has helped me get so much inspiration! He’s gonna be so happy lol. Anyway I love all your vids! ❤️
Zenhabitats has poor quality enclosures that aren't good for long term projects. The materials are flimsy and poorly made. They don't sell actual glass but crap acrylic glass that scratches easily and they don't care if it gets damaged in the shipping process! I love this channel but I feel like she is TOO BIAS towards Zens because she works for them and never has a shred of negative comments towards anything. That's fine and dandy but sadly her reviews on enclosures don't mean a thing in my opinion. I've seen more and more negative experiences coming out from customer service and quality from reptile pages and I'm glad others are speaking out!
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and that doesn’t exclude you. I honestly do love these enclosures and that is why I’m upgrading all of my animals to them! What’s nice about Zen is that they are always looking to improve and really do care what people think. For instance, the scratching of the acrylic. They recognize this is an issue with a lot of lizards and that is why they are going to be using glass in the next coming months instead. They are open minded and always changing things to make improvements. Thats something I admire and appreciate as a reptile keeper.
Hey, so I really need some help, would you guys think it's Okey to keep a corn snake without uvb? I know a lot of people don't use em. I just don't have the money for uvb but if I'll get a corn snake (it's a snow morph) I would get a deep heat projector becouse I do know it is a lot better that heat mats and heat lamps
Corn snake do really well without UVB, they don't need them to be healthy, it's a plus but not mandatory. Heat projector too are not really needed, corn snakes are crepuscular, meaning they go out at dawn and sunset and they usually don't seek a basking spot, instead they rely on the heat built up in the rocks to warm from below, hence the heating mat being so popular. The light is needed to have a clear day/night cycle, but not for heating directly. What you can do is have the heat mat and full spectrum lamp for the day (4500K to 6000k, they do a bit of heat, and can grow plants) and just heat map for the night.
Well I personally think yes it is necessary. Even if they don’t need it to live, it can be beneficial to them. Corn snakes in the wild do have UVB even if its not a lot, that means that they should also be allowed it in captivity. And I’m not trying to be rude honestly; if you can’t afford equipment for an animal you shouldn’t get it. You wait until you can afford it. When getting an animal there will always be more expenses than planned for so if you don’t have the money for a UVB light, you won’t have money for other potential costs. Just my opinion though, you will do whatever you feel is best :)
@@TheMambojack I also have one more question. If I'm not gonna provide uvb that means that the snake isn't getting D3. And everyone says to not dust the snakes food as it is not needed. Doesn't that mean that I have no way of supplementing the snake d3, and the snake will get metabolic bone desease? Becouse it can't use the calcium without d3??
Hello, awesome job!- question, do you take him out now to feed him? -or, do you trust that he will find whatever you put inside the enclosure? Thank you.
I used to feed him in a separate container, but now I’m allowing him to hunt in his own enclosure. I may do smaller amounts and watch to be sure he gets all of it
Cool now is is kinda just like a pacman frog right??? I got my nephew a pacman ...im debating to put water feature .... Is it good to have a water feature???? Im a snake guy i dont have amphibians .... Also i just ordered labels from same place
My granddaughter wants a pet frog but I heard they can not be handled or touched because the oils in our hands are toxic to frogs and toads. Is that true? Are there any that are better at handling than others?
That's true. Amphibians tend to be sensitive to oils and residue on our hands due to the nature of their sensitive skin. It's not advisable to hold amphibians for prolonged periods of time (more time than it takes to move them from point A to point B, or to inspect them). However, if you wash and thoroughly rinse your hands and/ or have wet hands while handling amphibians it's slightly better. There are also amphibian safe gloves you can purchase to reduce oil/ residue transfer to amphibian skin. Hope this all helps!
The sound of the water really isn't bad at all ☺️
Happy
I have to pee if I hear that sound
I love how he just sits with derpy face without a care 😁

Red eyed tree frogs are among one of the hardest frogs to care for i suggest finding something else
I adore that set up! It makes me want a pixie frog. I had a PacMan in the past and I miss them
Awww. He is so cute and I absolutely love the enclosure! It looks so amazing! Gosh, I love frogs so much!!!
Another upgrade?!? Tricia you’re working hard with all these upgrades! Love it 😊
They’re addicting!!! 😍💞
Love love love the upgrade. Though I can see him wedging himself behind the water tub.
I just got a leopard gecko for Christmas! 🦎 😃
Merry Christmas and congratulations!!!!! 💞💞💞

Omg! Good luck with your setup! Thank you so much for your support!!! 💕💕💕
How about cover/paint the tub with something that can blend in the enclosure???
Regardless that was a great build...
Thank you! I didn’t think of it 😅
Cool setup. Is he a dwarf? Because i remember when he seemed bigger than my frog but mine is now at least double the size of yours
I really like your channel I have a red foot tortoise she is 2years old. Have a happy new year. All the best in 2021
You are awesome! Love the setup 👍🏼
Looks so amazing!
Thank you!!! 💕💕💕
Dig the water dish down so the eco earth is even and then that will look so good. You did a great job

First!
P.S. I loooove you’re channel. How do you have sooo many zen habitats?
Thank you! I’m addicted to them! 😂
She works for them of course
@@reptiliangarden haha
I saw a video on goherping that basically loooked like a disaster for these enclosures. Are they really so loud and unstable? How was assembly?
Can you please leave a link to the pray foam you use or a reptile safe one as I’m thinking of doing a foam background for my leopard gecko !! Xxx
What bulb do you use? And do you use heat as well as UVB?
WOW sweetie, keep up The good work,
Also i started on UA-cam now!!!
Stay safe❤️❤️❤️
Omg congratulations!!!! And you too! 💞💞💞
❤️❤️😘

Tried discount code for joshs frog it doesn’t seem to work maybe it’s not active for the new year ?
It’s a one time use only now and it’s changed to reptiliangarden15. You have to be logged into an account for it to work

They’re similar, but Pac-Mans do not swim like pixies. They don’t require a water feature other than a shallow water bowl
