What do you like about this subject? I think reptile are very intereting. They all have their own personality. Sometimes very commical.... sometimes lots of attitude.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field? I hope to help people keep their reptiles sucessfully., and healthy. Anything I can learn is a plus. So if you have a tip please let me know.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: Reptiles and amphibians are very prone to dehydration and metabolic bone disease. When we take them out of natural light they do not create enough calcium . There is alot of different lighting necessary for them.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject Your reptiles see at a broader spectrum of light than we do. They need this ability to find food and more importantly a mate.
