Hi all, just been to pets at home (to buy some vine for morgana). and got chatting to the store manager (he was cleaning out the beardies viv

he said he had corns too, and asked if i had her wormed yet....wormed???

he suggested i get her done when shes about a year old, and every six months,
does this need doing?

don't see the need for worming on a regular basis. Would only worm my snakes if there is a specific problem.

unless you get your pinkies from his shop and he knows something you dont, there is no need to worm unless there is a problem.

Oh good old Pets at Home, they sell some very nice (if not a bit expensive) stuff but usually their knowledge about all animals could be written down on the back of a stamp. Had to intervene with some sick fish they were still selling a few weeks ago, how they couldn't recognise white spot I don't know.

Spot is doing great. Had a bit of a regurge issue couple of weeks ago and have only fed him again today but I think/hope all is sorted now. How is Morgana coming along?

shes doin great lotabob, she still v shy, and hides most of the time, only really exploring when shes hungry but she does make me laugh at the way she stretches right out just holding on by her tail to taste the air

glad spot doing better, would just love to be able to handle morgana more, but as youve seen she ickle lol, so just giving it time
