Ryan talks on Varanus auffenbergi at the Minnesota Herpetological Society!
Did you know the Central Newt (Notophthalmus viridescens louisianensis) in Central Wisconsin is in the eft (EF-t) stage for 3 years?! Normally, these efts are BRIGHTLY colored to alert predators of their tetrodotoxin! That’s right, the SAME toxin found in pufferfish!
What the Frogs Know
Ryan McVeigh of VivTech Products discussing Microclimates while herping seemingly dry areas with plenty of frogs! 🐸
Meet Dr. Joan Procter! She brought UV into the reptile enclosures when they were previously in the dark using Vita-Glass to allow the UVA and UVB through!
You’ll be able to find out more about her on our site under Resources soon! For now, enjoy our tongue in cheek Herper Dating Profile on Dr. Joan Procter of the London Zoo.

Circadian rhythm (our natural body clock essentially) is influenced by UVA amongst other things such as eating which animals generally do immediately. That is why research recommends that PEOPLE who are having trouble sleeping do NOT eat a snack before while trying to fall asleep as it can mess with the natural clock in the body.

Name a more stubborn snake than a Rhino Rat Snake female when she’s in HER spot. Don’t worry, I’ll wait 😂
Our Rhino Rat Snakes are giving are giving us the full spread of colubrid attitude today - never a dull moment!
This is a perfectly normal, female Rhino Rat Snake basking under a SurSun First Call. She does use the Jungle Cover as well throughout the day but the First Call is her go to most of the time, just like this! I will just move her and her cork tube to finish her enclosure remodel and deep clean but for now, she can feel she won this battle!

The game which may have prizes (sorry, only for those who play in the United States (yes, including you Hawaii, Alaska, and Puerto Rico) and Canada) can be found as stated above 👆
Why? Helps us grow that platform and that platform is nicer about companies related to animal industry assumptions for give away style posts.

This never gets old!! (Don’t worry, the little nugget successfully hatched and is enjoying the brooder with UV as well!) We have raised 3 generations of button quail to maturity and successfully bred them under the VivTech SurSun First Call UVA/UVB LED bulbs. Who else uses UV with their birds??
