Thanks. She's a Texas mud turtle. She's very docile and tame which doesn't always happen with that species. They can sometimes get nippy.

my girlfriend has been harrassing me for a pixiebob. its the mix of a regular cat and a domesticated bobcat. waaaaay too much money for a pet when there are so many unfortunates that need homes already.
my aunt has one of those... a very cool looking 14 lb cat btw... his name is Bob50 (pronounced bob-o)
... ****... now I feel bad
no, dude, i wasn't
'ing you, i was 'ing my old ferret. he would always hiding crap. LOL 
i do miss him though
interesting, that's what we call it when you pull a Wilser and don't make it to the toilet quick enough.
Had two turtles as a child, plus dogs and cats.
Now have 3 tarantulas (diff. species), 1 ball python, 1 blue-tongue skink, 1 scorpion and a cat.
Roommate has 1 hedgehog, 1 everglades rat snake, 3 giant african millipedes, 1 tarantula.
No pics though. Now.... Back to the pulled pork.

yeah, i was wondering the same thing, if animals, like mice and related beasties are bothered by the low frequency sounds. i would seem like they might be, because of theyre relatively good hearing
I've got 2 turtles (red ear sliders) that I'll probably be getting rid of soon. I'm just not home enough or there enough to be responsible enough for all the animals in my house.
I've got a dove I caught, 2 love birds, my dog, and some crazy fish that eats everything in the tank. I had a pet chicken last year but I gave it away.
I used to have an African Bullfrog when I was 8. I smashed it with a rock when I found out it was the culprit of the "Missing Lizards of 97" when about 2 dozen anoles disappeared from their tank in a matter of weeks. Turns out he was eating them.

Snakeman...
Is it true that snakes are really aroused by low-frequency, bass guitar sounds?
Your a comedian...
however snakes do not hear in the same ways you and I do
Basically the lower jaw of the snake is essentially a rigid cylinder, if you put a rigid cylinder in the water (can you say boat) it can move in six different directions (i.e. heave, roll, yaw, pitch, etc.) A snakes jaw moves in precisely those same directions while on the ground...so...when sound vibrations travel they are picked up through the snakes jawbone, and then travel to a cochlear mechanism (membrane) within the snakes auditory system and there, sound vibrations are converted to electrical impulses and transmitted to the brain.
Its called bone conductive hearing (and yes the do have ears, they are just on the inside of the skull while ours are on the outside)
who said you couldn't learn anything on Talk Bass?
