Hello everyone,
I was driving down the road yesterday and saw a gentleman on the corner with a sign that said baby turtles for sale. I did not stop and look but it does bring up an interesting note. There are federal laws in place that make it illegal to sell hatchling turtles. You can not sell any turtle under 4 inches. So please keep this in mind if you are tempted at some point by those cute little Red Eared Sliders. You can read regulations in full at the following website. http://www.tortoise.org/general/4inch.html
I promise to write more about these wonderful animals at a later date but for now plese dont but any animals from roadside vendors.
Have a great day,
Culebra

Introduction
Hello Everyone,
Allow me introduce myself and explain what this blog is all about. I am a the Exotic Pets Coordinator for Dreampower Animal Rescue here in Colorado Springs. I have a passion for all of those animals that make most people either a bit squeemish or or make them turn tail and run. I would like to hear from those of you that feel the same way. I would also like to hear from those of you that don't. Tell me about why you love your snakes, lizards, frogs, toads and any other animal you might keep as a pet that is out of the ordinary. Also let me if you are one of those who are not to sure about these kinds of pets.
I myself have 2 dogs, 3 cats, 1 bird, 1 gerbil, 1 Leopard gecko, 1 Ball Python, 1 Cornsnake, and 1 Prairie King snake. Oh and don't let me forget the fishtank full of Cichlids and 2 Hermit Crabs. So as you can see I think I have it about covered :)
People often ask me if there is an animal I don't like. I would have to say no there isn't.
So let me hear from you, share your stories or ask questions.
Thanks for reading
Tammy
