thanks for the info, i guess if it falls on the floor, my dog may have a snack:WHOA:
 
I found 1 of my crabs on the bottom floor of my house once.

Quite impressive as it made it all the way out of the tank (which i had attempted to block up) across my bedroom, out of the door and across the hall.

past where the cat sleeps and down a flight of stairs!

I used to chuck mine fresh ham and they seemed to love it, it was funny watching a fish swim with some ham in its mouth with a crab attached the other end!!
 
It's a tiny Les Stroud! He must've been watching Survivorman the night before the big breakout! I would cover the tank tho. Did he really survive on CRICKETS?
 
haha yeah that's what the guy told me.

btw, he escaped awhile ago, like a few days after i got him. and hasn't been seen since. stpid thing lol. i put a net, but he pulled it down...gr...lol sneakt little critter
 
Speaking of cool finds, I was at my local store one day picking thru a pile of stone for my African cichlid tank at the time, and when I lifted the last rock there was a 1 foot long baby red tail boa underneath it. I could have easily put it in my pocket and walked out lol. But I gave him to the guys there and they gave me a 20$ store credit for finding it. Not a bad deal!
 
I got a couple of those patriot crabs.The first day i got them one escaped. My wife found him the next day in the kitchen in front of the fridge. Little fella must have been hungry.:ROFL: Yeah and the wife was not to impressed.

now THAT is what i call a good find. I googled Redtail Boa and I got a subspecies of the Boa Constrictor, Boa constrictor constrictor. But the picture looked more like the Peruvian Boa Constrictor. Are they the same thing?
