Amazonas Repti Fantasy Plant 007

Tillandsias - decoration for steppe & semi-desert terrariums Tillandsias belong to the bromeliad family and originate from subtropical Central and South America. Like many bromeliads, they live epiphytically on trees and rocks. Their roots serve almost exclusively as an adhesive organ.The plants are delivered assorted by us according to stock - this means you will not receive the whole assortment shown, but as many "pieces" as you order Tillandsias absorb the necessary nutrients and water through their leaves. Their distribution extends across many regions in different climate zones, e.g. tillandsias thrive in ever-humid rainforests, cooler mountain forests, and some species even in semi-deserts.Tillandsias are relatively undemanding plants, which makes them easy to care for. Tillandsias require a bright location, but one that is protected from direct sunlight, especially in summer. Tillandsias thrive very well at room temperature.In winter, tillandsias should not be exposed to temperatures below 15°C.Tillandsias are best sprayed with soft water 2 to 3 times a week. A special tillandsia fertiliser is available for fertilising, which contains all the important nutrients for your tillandsias to thrive.Tillandsias are, with optimal care, relatively little susceptible to diseases and pests. Looked after in this way, you will enjoy your plants for a long time. Tillandsias delight with unusual flowers and forms of leaves. In most cases, you can also tell from the colour of the leaves what the plant needs. As a rule of thumb:Grey leaves - more light, less water.Green leaves - lots of water, more warmth, less light.Tillandsias are ideally suited for steppe and semi-desert terrariums. Even bearded dragons do not eat the plants.We offer you only tillandsias from cultivation, so not from the wild.

Mealworms - Tenebrio molitor The mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) is one of the oldest commercially bred feeder animals. They are relatively easy to breed. For birds in small quantities also for reptiles The mealworm is actually the beetle larva of the meal beetle. It hatches from an egg and grows to a size of approx. 25 mm after moulting several times. Eventually the beetle larva pupates, from which a beetle emerges again. Mealworms are among the oldest commercially bred feeder animals. They are relatively easy to breed and are produced in large quantities. Mealworms are actually pests which are mainly known from grain mills, as the larvae prefer to feed on flour or its waste products. As it is not possible to use insecticides in mills, an infestation is difficult to control. Mealworms are a classic food for soft-feeding birds. Hundreds of tons of these beetle larvae are produced throughout Europe every year for this purpose. A bird's stomach is well adapted to this type of food. A mealworm consists largely of a hard, chitinous shell and, due to its fairly simple diet, contains few nutrients. The stomach of a reptile, on the other hand, is not well adapted to these conditions. If too many or only mealworms are fed to reptiles, deficiency symptoms or obesity can occur. You can also see from the animals' faeces that mealworms are only poorly digested. Feeding mealworms with vegetables or fruit before feeding only has the effect of a certain vitaminization, which could also be achieved by dusting the beetle larvae with a vitamin preparation. The high fat content of mealworms is another reason why the larvae should only be given to reptiles as supplementary food. For many bird lovers, however, they represent the staple food of their favourites and this is mainly what they are bred for. At temperatures below 10 degrees C. the animals become motionless but are not dead. This can be utilised for storage. At temperatures of 6-8 degrees C. the animals can be stored for several weeks without food.Order by Sunday evening - delivery on ThursdayOrders received by Sunday evening will be sent by A-Post on Wednesday or Thursday.Please provide a recipient address where the parcel can be delivered.We accept no responsibility for parcels that are delivered late or collected late.

Nekton MSA Highly effective mineral supplement for birds, reptiles and amphibians Nekton MSA supports metabolism and provides the bones with essential nutrients. Vitamin D3, macro- and trace elements, as well as amino acids, are present in a high-quality mineral mixture that effectively prevents deficiency symptoms, especially during breeding and rearing. Nekton MSA has positive effects on eggshell fragility, immune defence and bone development in young animals are the key factors for success. Nekton MSA is not water-soluble therefore it is recommended to mix Nekton into soft food or bird grit. Strengthens the skeletal system Prevents rickets Ideal for breeding and rearing Prevents eggshell fragility Composition: Dicalcium phosphate, silicic acid Nutritional additives per kg: 10,000 IU vitamin D3, 3,000 mg iron (iron(II) sulphate), 1,255 mg zinc (zinc sulphate), 1,255 mg manganese (manganese(II) sulphate), 250 mgcopper (copper(II) sulphate), 100 mg iodine (calcium iodate). Feeding guide:For reptiles: 0.25g Nekton MSA per kg body weight daily or 1.5g once a week. Suitable for dusting the food of live feed animals.For birds: 1g Nekton MSA per kg body weight daily.

Desert locust (Schistozerca gregaria)The desert locust (Schistozerca gregaria) is one of the largest commercially bred food animals. Females reach a total length with wings of over 75 mm in some cases. popular food animal for reptiles and amphibians larger than the migratory locust medium The desert locust is one of the largest commercially bred food animals. Females reach a total length with wings of over 75 mm in some cases. Males usually remain somewhat smaller. This means that desert locusts are up to 30% larger than, for example, the migratory locust (Locusta migratoria). The animals are pink-grey in colour after moulting. Over the next 6-10 days, the colouring changes to a strong yellow, especially in the males. However, the animals have the most beautiful colouring and patterning during the juvenile and subadult stage. Here, the animals are also coloured lemon yellow with a black pattern. It is precisely this colouring that arouses the prey drive in many reptile species, which makes the desert locust particularly popular with many terrarium keepers.Unfortunately, the desert locust is not as productive as the migratory locust and rearing the animals takes up to 2/3 longer. On the other hand, it can be bred almost all year round, as it is not too demanding on special types of food.The desert locust is an excellent food insect because it can usually survive shipping without damage, even in extreme heat and cold, and can survive for up to 2 weeks after shipping without the addition of food.Desert locusts are generally accepted by all lizards. Experience has shown that they are particularly favoured by large lizards such as bearded dragons, water dragons, basilisks, varans, ruffed lizards etc.. They are particularly popular with many species of chameleon, as they are particularly attracted to the yellow colouring of juvenile and sub-adult animals.Order by Sunday evening - delivery on ThursdayOrders received by Sunday evening will be dispatched by A Mail on Wednesday or Thursday.Please enter a recipient address to which the parcel can be delivered.We accept no responsibility for parcels that are delivered late or collected late.The live crickets in the shop are only available at this price on Wednesdays - the prices per tin are otherwise Fr. 1.00 per tin higher, as we also feed and care for the crickets. Even with the greatest care, it can happen that feed animals die due to temperature fluctuations or unpredictable events.

Proterra Reptile Fluid - 2 x 10mlOptimum nutrition for reptiles and other terrarium animals.In their natural environment, reptiles, amphibians and other terrarium inhabitants meet their requirements for vitamins, minerals and trace elements through the food that is available to them there. Although we endeavor to provide a diet that is as close to nature as possible when maintaining terrariums, this is often not completely feasible.Food animals such as crickets or grasshoppers do not usually come from the natural habitat of the terrarium animals and have therefore not enjoyed a natural diet. For cost reasons, these food animals are often either not fed at all or only fed inferior food, which impairs their nutritional quality. However, to ensure that our terrarium animals are optimally supplied, supplementing their food with JBL PROTERRA REPTILFLUID is a valuable support. It helps to provide the correct dosage of vitamins and close nutritional gaps. Poison dart frogs, which lose their toxicity in captivity, are an illustrative example of this. The reason for this is the loss of certain ants in their diet that they eat in the wild. Although this loss of toxicity is not a problem for the frogs themselves and they can even be bred in the terrarium without any problems, this example shows how strongly nutrition can influence the characteristics of animals.Suitable for the following species:Anolis, axolotl, bearded dragons, basilisks, tree pythons, boa constrictors, broad-shelled tortoises, Chinese three-legged tortoises, thick-tailed scorpions, spiny-tailed agamas, spiny-tailed iguanas, European tortoises, European pond turtles, rock iguanas, feeder insects, Dyer's frogs, ghost terrors, golden tejus, praying mantises, Greek tortoise, belted tails, collared iguanas, house geckos, Indian star tortoise, Yemen chameleons, coral fingers, corn snakes, ruffed lizards, clawed frogs, charcoal tortoise, king snakes, king pythons, lobed chameleons, tree frogs, iguanas, leopard geckos, newts, musk turtles, night tree snakes, Pakistan agamas, panther turtles, poison dart frogs, red-eyed frogs, red-bellied slider turtles, hinged turtles, horned frogs, Ornate tortoises, Settler's agamas, Scolopendras, Scorpions, Spur-thighed tortoises, Pond turtles, Day geckos, Tokees, Tropical tortoises, Tropical pond turtles, Tarantulas, Water agamas, Water turtles, Desert geckos, Dwarf day geckos
