Hahahahahah!!!!! Thanks for the help. 😂

Tailless whip spider on woman’s hand

Species ID

Was told it was Damon diadema but it (he?) only has 2 bands on the legs instead of 3 distinct ones. My thought it Damon medius. (Subadult)

If anyone knows for sure please let me know! :-)

Been a while!
Wanted to share the new puppy.
Meet “Bucatini” my new Columbian Boa Constrictor ❤️

He is a wonderful new animal ambassador and came to me from small breed animal rescue in Vista, CA

Peppered Cockroaches Left (in hand) - Juvenile (no wings) Top - possible adult with dwarfism? Bottom - full adult with wings

Do I have a peppered cockroach with some form of dwarfism? This is so cool!

(Archimandrita tesselata)

In my hand is a juvenile. They don’t get wings until adult (bottom) the small one on top with the wings is smaller than my juvenile!

If you see me “rocking out” in my car, just know I’m actually totally winning that argument I had 5 years ago.

Look at this little noodle! She is getting so big!

Despite her puny size she has already been part of quite a few of my live animal programs and the kids (and adults) LOVE her! (Obviously 😜)

Legless lizard anyone? 😜

Mr. Wigglesworth my European legless lizard was a huge hit as always during my Girl Scout programs this week. Now we are off to a reading reptiles program in Long Beach!

Snek sez thank you!

He’s the best 🥰

He is. Only 8ft but when the audiences see him they act like he is 20ft 🤣 he is a favorite for sure.

Hahaha! The clapping audio 🤭 I was listening to musicals on Spotify and I filmed this at the end of a song. But feel free to clap along! Everyone loves isopods! 😂

Just found A BUNCH of these in my Giant Millipede (Spiropoeus fischeri) enclosure! 🥰

No idea what type of isopod it is. This seems to be full size (there are loads of babies too)

Food/substrate in milli enclosure is the isopod mix from Josh’s Frogs. 🤷‍♀️

Today’s episode of “The kid said what now?!?”

Me: So, what should we do if there is an animal we are afraid of?

4 yo boy: RUN AWAY!

Me: 😳….Or…..we could LEARN about it! Then we might realize it’s not so scary after all!

(But…I mean..yeah…I guess you could run 🤷‍♀️)
