Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Tropical armadillo lizard needs help!
Hi everyone! My name is Michael, and I am new here. I am attaching some photos of my baby Cordylus tropidosternum that has some eye issues, my questions are: what's wrong/ and since it is eye related could I use some terramycin to fix it? Thanks again in advance!

eye problems
Hi Michael...sorry about your little guy's eye problem. I have an armadillo and she's really hardy, they are super east to keep and are an inexpensive little pet. If you post this in the veterinary forum, more qualified people can probably help you. Also, if you can explain how long it's been that way and what may have caused it ? For instance, some compact UVB lights can cause eye damage. The long tube flourescent Reptisun 10.0 is the best UVB light. If you can get the lixard out in the sum for a short time twice a week, you don;t even need a UVB bulb. Did it possibly get something in it's eye ? I keep mine on a sand/ soil mix with no probs. for 4 years, she's fat and healthy as can be. I hope you can get some help for it.

Thank you for the help! And I have another one that is shedding and everything just fine. And they have a Reptisun 10.0 UVB, and there is one eye that is always closed and it looks yellow on the inside, oh and they are on large grain walnut shells, and they are too big to get into there little eyes. This eye problem has been there since the beginning but it was just crusty eyes and then turned to this. Beginning meaning, about the beginning of february. And how do I move this to the vet section? Lol thanks again!

Hi Mike....I actually don't know how to move it, I think a moderator is needed for that. You should just post the question there, just like you did here.

That's O.K., by the way, Terramycin is widely used for eye infection, so I would go ahead and use it. I'm just not sure how often, but prob. twice a day.
