goReptiles is simply a hobby composed of a small, select group of breeders and morphs. In no way, do I intend on making big bucks through my breeding efforts. I breed for the love of the species that I house with their gorgeous colors and personalities. In no way are these animals products of big chain corporations or exploitation. I find my reptiles as a passion, and breeding them just a perk of the passion; breeding is the hobby, while the reptiles are the passion.
If you're in the neighborhood, stop my goReptiles MySpace, and add us as your friend, as we would gladly accept the invite.

Lizards
The skeleton of the Northern fence lizard is broad, providing stability and balance when it climbs a tree trunk. Fingers and toes are meant for grasping.
Turtles
A turtle's shell is actually part of its skeleton. The carapace is made of two layers. Except for Ohio's softshell turtles, the outside of the upper shell is covered with plates, known as scutes. The inner layer is made of bone. Many of the bones, including the spine and ribs are fused to the shell. The turtles legs and neck are long and moveable. For protection, the head and neck can be tucked inside the shell when frightened. Some species of turtles, like the Eastern box turtle have a hinge on the plastron that allows them to close their shell up tightly for even better protection from predators.
Snakes
The skeleton of a snake plays a major roll in its survival. The spine is very strong in order to handle the stress put on them by their powerful trunk muscles. These muscles are what move the snake along. Another partnership between the skeleton and muscles is in the jaws. After a snake has killed its prey, either by venomous bite or constricting, it is able to open its flexible jaws wide enough to swallow its meal headfirst and whole. This is possible by a special bone which connects the lower jaw to the skull. The lower jaw can be stretched sideways with a ligament that's like a rubber band that keeps the two halves of the jaw together at the chin.

| Dust Storms In Sahara Desert Sustain Life In Atlantic Ocean
|
Saharan dust storms help sustain life over extensive regions of the North Atlantic Ocean. Scientists mapped the distribution of nutrients including phosphorous and nitrogen and investigated how organisms such as phytoplankton are sustained in areas with low nutrient levels. They found that plants are able to grow in these regions because they are able to take advantage of iron minerals in Saharan dust storms. |

| Alzheimer's Early Detection: Biomarkers Identify Early Onset Of Disease, Before Symptoms Appear
|
Researchers have confirmed that in the earliest stages of Alzheimer's, levels of specific proteins in the blood and spinal fluid can be used to track the progression of AD, long before symptoms appear. The hope is that, one day, screening for such biomarkers could take their place beside such routine tests as colonoscopies and mammograms as another common tool of preventive medicine. |
