elindra SG Assuming that there are no restrictions by AVA. Please do not list unrealistic pets like dolphins, elephants etc. It has to be something manageble in a HDB flat I would like to have a green iguana and a pacman frog Would like an Aligator Snapping Turtle too but I need a huge pond for that Green Iguana Pacman Frog Alligator Snapping Turtle
Rhonda SG Erm... those I want would be in your 'unrealistic' category! I'm now pretty addicted to Animal Planet and cannot start my day without watching the 10am Animal Precinct / The Protectors on Mon-Fri! Someday, I'll volunteer at some animal shelter or zoo!
the Bear SG what happens when the cub grows up? i'd like a nice tank and have a scorpion in it.. i'll feed it things i catch in the park
Rhonda SG I wanna keep baby big cats too! But elindra said cannot include unrealistic pets leh! If I married a billionaire, I'd start a mini zoo right in the backyard of our mansion!
Rhonda SG elindra, after we went to that aquarium shop near my place, I've been thinking, how nice if I could get one of those lovely tanks and keep a yabbie or two! Too bad, I'm leaving soon so I'll see what I can keep over there!
elindra SG Remember to provide them hiding places as they tend to eat each other up while changing shells
the Bear SG yabbies are delicious pacman frogs are cool.. you can feed them anything! i knew someone who used to keep snakes and a couple of pacman frogs... well, one of the mice he fed the snake ran away.. and was recovered by his long-suffering mother.... she figured, hey.. put inside with the frog.. nothing will happen... she put the mouse inside, the frog hopped over and ate the mouse... there was much screaming
elindra SG How come no one read about unrealistic pets bit And no one read about the part where it can be kept in HDB flat bit too
elindra SG My friend used to feed his Pacman frog baby chicks Gee...I think she thinks frogs eat flies, crickets etc.......
the Bear SG sea turtles are mostly good-natured.. fresh-water turtles are ALL bad-tempered.. and this is the worst of the whole lot! you can see them at the zoo
elindra SG I mean that's what they do They pretend to be a stone and stay at the bottom of the river or whatever and keep their mouth open and wiggle their tongue so that fishes will think it is a worm and try to eat the tongue and their jaws snap shut!
elindra SG The Alligator Snapping Turtle is the largest freshwater turtle in the world. These turtles can measure from 15 inches to over 30 inches in length. Their weight upon maturity can range from 35 to over 200 pounds. Males are typically larger than females. The tail on this turtle can be as long as its shell. The large shell is rough and three-keeled, meaning it has 3 pronounced ridges running from front to back. It has a large head with a hooked "beak" and very powerful jaws. The eyes are on the sides of their heads unlike the Common Snapping Turtle whose eyes are situated on the top of their heads. These turtles can be gray, brown, or black in color. http://www.nashvillezoo.org/asturtle.htm 30 inches is almost 1 metre in length
