Care Tracking

I highly highly recommend you keep good tracking records of your herp, including feeding events, shed events, periodic weight measurements (post shed pre feeding is the best time), etc.

You can track the progress of your herp using the online database at http://www.iherp.com/.

Good records can be very beneficial when seeking veterinary care or community support for your herp.

Care Sheets

It is both California Law (at least I think it is) and good practice for anyone who sells pets to provide care information. Proper care sheets for every reptile we sell are linked to here.

We did not write these care sheets. We believe the value and experience of many eyes in reviewing a care sheet is better than writing a care sheet from scratch. Therefore we have chosen to use care sheets that have been written by others and reviewed by others rather than write care sheets ourselves with only ourselves to review them.

Disclaimer

To the best of my knowledge, the information in those care sheets is accurate and adequate to properly care for you pet. However, Tempting Eve Reptiles does not have control of the content and it is possible though unlikely that those care sheets have been updated with information we would disagree with since we last reviewed them.

It is always a good idea to research the care of any pet from several sources rather than rely upon a single care sheet.

If you have any questions about the care of your pet, do not hesitate to contact us.
