How should you care for your reptile during a power outage?

Here are some tips on how to care for pets who require continuous heat, such as reptiles and snakes: - Before a power outage, if possible, buy a generator. This will allow you to keep your reptiles warm during the outage. - Amphibians will do okay without heat for a period of time. Try to limit the number of times you open the habitat. - For a heat source, you can go to your local sporting goods store and purchase the heat packs used to warm feet and hands. These can be placed underneath the habitat (just like you would place an electric heating pad). This will allow your reptile to get heat. Do not put the pack into habitat with the reptile. - Another way to warm cold reptiles is to use a pillowcase. Place the reptile gently in the case and place the pillowcase next to your body under your shirt for warmth. - Pillow cases can also be used to transport reptiles if needed. - Do not feed your reptile as they need heat to digest their food. - You can save plastic milk

I have always given my turtle ReptoMin for the past 14 years. Are there any other foods or treats i can feed her?

Why change a working system? You are obviously doing very well in the way you keep your turtle. Since apparently your turtle is doing well, it is getting everything it needs with the Reptomin. You could try offering it leafy greens, freeze-dried shrimp or krill, crickets, superworms, rosy red minnows and even pinky mice as an occasional treat.

So my friends leopord gecko stopped eating or is eating little for like 3 or 4 weeks and she has been digging a lot it says it could be of a cold tank but the temp is 80 and we are starting to get worried

Thanks for reaching out about Ruby. The tank needs to be warmed to 95-100 F in the basking area and no place in the tank should drop below 80F at night. UVB spectrum is important as is the proper diet. Anorexia for 3-4 weeks is serious and a veterinary visit is recommended to assess and provide a diagnostic/ treatment plan. Intestinal parasites, infections, malnutrition and others are possible. Good luck.

My female leopard gecko has gone slightly pale and has lost some weight. She goes for the live foods I hand feed her but when she strikes at it and gets it in her mouth, she then just drops it and let's it go. Then she will follow it, sometimes catch

Go back to basics. Check the temperature and humidity in the enclosure, make sure prey aren't too big and confirm she isn't ill or injured. This may require a physical exam with your veterinarian. Consider supplementing with Fluker's Repta-Boost, or similar product, to get additional nutrients and calories into her.

Thanks for reaching out about Zeplyn and including photos. The understanding is Petco will buy back with you being able to re-purchase. Check with them. Anorexia is often causes by intestinal parasites or infections, so a veterinary visit is recommended to assess and a diagnostic/treatment plan. Check and correct husbandry including temperature and gradient, UVB exposure, and diet. Good luck.
