    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

hello all first let me start by saying thank you in advance. i aquired a new burm two nights ago.he is about 8 1/2 ft long and a pretty boy. was fine at first but i noticed that night that he had a bit of a weeze to him.then around three am i got up to look in his home and see a bit of mucus on the side of his enclosure. i have heard him"hacking" a couple times since then and i am fairly positive its a r.i. i am wondering if there is anything i can do for him until next thursday when i can make it to brads. some one suggested i try and use tylan on him but i am a bit skeptical on this. thanks for the help again
 
dont use any meds on him yet. need some info: cage temps, cage humidity, type of cage, size of cage, ambient room temp, where did you get him from, how was he shipped, whate were thee temps of the shipping process. these to start
 
sorry it took so long to get back.... daytime temp is right around 93. night time is 86 humidity right around 65 % he is in a 150 g tank room temp is always 70 degrees.i got him from a guy in grove city pa. i let him acclimate to his new enviroment and went to feed him today and he did not hesitate and ate like a champ. when he is moving around he does not spit anything up at all its only when he lays still for say a hour or two and does it once or twice a day. mouth is very clean is not blowing bubbles out of his nose or saliva dripping dripping
