THE REST OF THE GANG
Oriental Fire Belly Toads
AKA Jeremiah, & Junior
The firebellies are fun little guys that I guess we're suckers for. We started out with one, then needed to get a friend for him, of course. That was it for a while, but a friend ended up dropping another one off that needing rescuing. Then, there were three! We're back down to two, but they are quite the pair! All are nice and plump, living on a delicacy of crickets, mealworms, and the occasional guppy...yummy!
Freshwater Tropical Fish
AKA The Fish-kisses

The fish are pretty cool too. We currently have a 30 gallon tank, but its definitely still got room for growth. In the tank now, we have a small tropical community of Lemon Tetras, Glass Catfish, Cherry Barbs, Corys, Comets, and a Busheynose. We also have a few algae eating shrimp, which I would highly recommend. We've only had the tank since 2003, but we love it! I've been known to sit and watch the fishes for hours just like a TV. Some of them have such personality, and you just have to watch the antics, especially during mealtime. A personal favorite treat for our fish is blood worms and sea monkeys...just introduce and watch the frenzy!

Triops & Sea Monkeys

Thanks to my husband's odd interests, we always have one or the other of these little critters thriving in some window in our house. The sea monkeys I really could care less about, and I've been known to sneak a few in the fish tank for a tasty treat! The Triops, on the other hand, are rather interesting. They are tricky to care for, needing very specific conditions, but when they get upwards of 3 inches, they are quite entertaining.

Temporary Lodgers

I can't not mention the critters that come into our home, but only as a short-term resident. We also own and operate Muridae Haven Rescue for small animal and exotics. We've welcome in everything from dogs, rats, mice, guinea pigs, rabbits, birds, reptiles, and more! And they have definitely made an impact on our lives, so they cannot go without their fair share of space here on this page!
