SMALL ANIMALS QUESTIONS

Q. Do reptiles sweat?

Answer:

No, they do not have the glands to do it.

Q. Do tarantulas make good pets? Are they easy to keep?

Answer:

Tarantulas are a great pet if you enjoy observing your animal instead of interacting with it. They are very low maintenance.

Q. I have a male and a female bunny, and every couple of weeks I notice a patch of fur falls off the bridge of her nose, is this something I should be concerned about?

Answer:

Sometimes two bunnies in the same cage can cause stress. If your female is in heat she may be pulling out her fur to nest. also, your male bunny could be showing signs of dominance and the way to deal with that is to separate them.

Q. How do I tell if I have a male or female hamster?

Answer:

It is obvious at approximately 6-8 weeks of age. Male teddy bear hamsters have two longer tufts of hair on either side of their tails.
