Hello from Scotland
Hi all,
I'm new to the LCA topic with no experiance and pretty much no knowlege on it, but I have a real interest in the keeping of extoic/unusual animals and love seeing how their housing is created and the end products Really im just starting in the world of "not your average pet" and at the moment keep a crested gecko in a soon to be, planted vivarium, with intentions of expanding out to other species... at some point At the moment ants arent quite an option but im interested in what its all about and hope you dont mind me tagging along and having a nosey into what it is you do!

Re: Hello from Scotland
Hi and welcome again Ruairidh, meant to ask you what your going to keep in your planted vivarium? I've kept a couple of dart frog species and would highly recommend them. There very interesting and are diurnal so you see them loads during the day where tree frogs etc are nocturnal.
After leafcutter darts are the most enjoyable thing I've kept.

Mmmmh? Can't put that one down to using your phone and mistyping, Jamie. We should put that down to it being Friday and the end of a hard week waiting for something to catch fire.deansie26 wrote:meant to ask you what your going to keep in your planted vivarium?
And a really warm welcome to you Ruairidh. What on earth does your name mean and where in Scotland are you. If its Gaelic then up north?
