what sort of reptile?

turtle wraped in damp cloth in dark box.. NEVER in water, it will drown


i received my bearded dragon in a tupperwear container with holes in the tope,

i suppose with snakes and lizards its better to keep the shoe box or container dark with aiir holes,

but i guess for snakes most people use click clacks..

i think i can answer this one but correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure click clacks are small plastic containers which click and clack when u close and open them. I read on a thread earlier that you get them when u purchase a snake or reptile from a dealer and that you can buy them (though im not sure where from) for around $16.

Hey Josh
your right sort of they are about $16 for 5 of them and they have a snap lock on each end of the tub.They are about lunch box size and you can buy them anywhere from woolworths to crazy clarks ,the warehouse ect.We drill small holes in the top and if they are travelling in the sides as well.Hope this helps some and you dont sound stupid how do you find out if you dont ask
Odie
Ps they come in heaps of sizes right up to 70 litre.

There are a few varietys, a general discription is a containor that has clips that hold the top on so your reptile can't force the top off.
