Hello and sorry for the inactivity! Let’s give a well deserved update ❤️🔥
🍁Follow my Pet IG (CozieOak_Exotics) for more
Follow my art IG account (CozieOak) for art and pricing!!🍁
ART:
🕊️I will be taking pet portraits leading up to and during Per Expo! I will also have inventory for sale at one of my tables while the other is for education and interaction! I do work full time so inventory MAY be limited as it’s all handmade with love 🐾 but I’m planning bird pants, crochet collars and bandanas, and matching accessories! I may also try embroidery patches if I can get the materials in on time to work on them. Stickers and MAYBE keychains will be available if they arrive on time. If not, catch me at Avalon Expo in July!
PETS:
🌱Last pet expo was a huge success! We adopted our cat Anubis from New Life Rescue on day 1 before the doors opened! He is now 1 years old 🥹 crazy!
🌱My tarantula, Tarot, is fully grown—it’s still a dwarf and I’m unsure of the s*x. I still call her she! She is still NOT handleable to others due to her SIZE not her behaviour! She is super calm and I will on sparing occasions have her on my hands for viewing IF she allows. I will be discussing updated husbandry on tarantulas and discuss how tiny cups and containers are no longer suitable for full grown larger species. I’m HOPING to have another tarantula BEFORE pet expo!
🌱Cashew dropped her tail. I will be discussing Exo-Terra lids and safety tricks to enforce safety so the same emergency doesn’t happen to others who own reptiles and cats together. She is doing well, I’m still very upset by it though. It’s a thing that never crossed my mind as I trusted said brand.
🌱We have a 5th pigeon but he will be released before Expo. We found him downtown almost fully fledged. He stayed in our pigeon room until he could fly and eat in his own and will be released soon with warmer weather pending! Discussions on pigeons will once again proceed as necessary at my table, and I am still working on my book! Remember: adopt don’t sh*p. Post in Canada's Pigeon and Dove Rescue Adoption and Appreciation Group for inquiries about adoption or ethical b*ying locally as we did for Chai and Earl Gray
🌱I now have a Ball Python named Coffee! We will be talking about BP hunger strikes, best way to feed f/t, the dangers of live feeding, and the proper husbandry for snakes ESPECIALLY balls as they’re commonly kept in 20-40g tubs/enclosures with low humidity, when they should be thriving in 4x2x2 minimums in a humid enclosure.
🌱Mango will also be returning! He is now fully grown at 3 years old and we will be discussing the differences between balls and corns for those curious where to start!
