I don't know if you read the post I made on these boards a while ago, but I have started this big project. I made this software that I was hoping could maybe be set up at reptile shows and stuff at like an information kiosk. It has a "reptile personality" quiz, where people can input what sort of facilities and capabilities they have, and based on that information it points them to the most appropriate outlet (I have geckos, bearded dragons, uromastyx, dwarf monitors, and regular monitors on there right now). This was started as a school project, and I have the school project version done but I want to add a lot more pictures and information. I've also got detailed care sheets on there for several specific species. I ended up using the care sheets from your site for ackies and waters, and a couple of your pictures too (I gave you credit, I swear). Right now it's still just a school project, but I was hoping to get it set up at shows eventually so that less people will go home with $10 wild caught nile monitors which either die or get turned loose in the everglades (have you heard about that problem we're having down here in florida?).
Oh yeah, but the dirt thing. I don't use playsand, it's terrible. I think the reason that dirt is not the best choice of substrate for some owners is the amount of dirt and dust it generates indoors. In a breeding atmosphere, like at ProExotics, it's ideal. However bird seed or some other substrates provide a much better alternative for those of us that can't afford to lose the security deposits on our apartments lol. ----- 1.3 Uromastyx Maliensis (Ricky, Quinn, Anna, Drusilla)
