For boning chickens or other small poultry, I would like to recommend flexible boning knives as this type offers you more control. Flexible blade works well of bending around small bones, which require more dexterity than stiff blades can do. Here are top 4 boning knives that had bought and spend time testing to finding the most suitable knives for boning chicken.

A thin and flexible blade makes it perfect for boning chicken as it can bend along contour lines. Although it can be used for all types of meat but it more prefers for thinner items such as chicken or fish. High-carbon stainless steel blades of Victorinox Fibrox are ice-tempered, which ensure it durability for such a long time and being rust resistant.

Even with regularly used, this knife will keep its sharpness. Victorinox is the brand that has many year experience of producing knifes. Their products are not very popular for home use but also for professional chefs.

#2 Mercer Culinary Genesis 6-Inch Flexible Boning Knife

If you concerned about the price tag of boning knife, you can go for Mercer knife as with this, you so not need to spend All a hundred dollars to buy a high quality boning knife for chicken s. Mercer Culinary offers the nice looking knife with many features that will be useful for both beginners and professional.

It is completely stain and corrosion resistance. Thanks to forged construction and Taper edge, this knife ensures the durability and sharpness for such along time. But it also requires a little bit maintenance of hand cleaning after used.

It is designed with an ergonomic black Santoprene handle, which offer the most comfort and firmly grip for users. The handle features with full tang construction and bolster, which help promote stability and well balance.

The blade length this only 6-inch but it is the ideal length for boning chicken. It also comes with super sharp narrow width for the most flexible. It is made from German high carbon stainless steel, which ensure the sharpness and corrosion resistance for long term use. The premium material makes its edge will retain for a long time without regularly reshape.

I offer outstanding performance due to the ultra-shape German super steel 56 Rockwall Hardness. Although this knife can be used for many ways but it is more preferred for boning thinner meat items as deer, chicken, fish.

Personally, I would like to choose knife with beautiful appearance, this is why I decide to buy this knife at the first sight as it features an attractive handle. The ergonomic Pakkawood handle has smooth polishing of the most comfort and grips.

Not only that, the knife handle also features stainless steel well balance. Due to this, the handle will prevent slip grip and also easy to clean. You just need to wipe the handle with soft cloth for cleaning it.

It also has the affordable price that offer the best value for the money. However, the only downside I found here is that it is not dishwasher safe.

Red eared sliders are beautiful, entertaining that make the great pets to have around the house. However, they are quite messy, eat a lot of food and also create a ton of waste. For this reason, you do need to get the best filter for red eared slider for keeping them happy and healthy for a long time.

There are many different types of filters in the market available. But not all of them can meet the need of your pets. Ending up with the wrong filter can post a potential danger for your red eared sliders. Here are some types of filter that I would like to recommend to use for your tank.

#1 Canister filter

This filter is considered by many keepers as the best types for red eared slider tank. Canister filters are usually install under the tank in the cabinet or stand, that means your little pals have a lot more space to swim and less obstruction to swim around.

Canister filters provide excellent filtration, they are great for over 40 gallons tank, but they’re also pretty expensive. The best canister filter will be equipped with multiple stages of huge trays that can hold lots of filter media.

They provide three-stage filter: mechanical, biological and chemical filtration. Some models even offer extra stage or two available. Although they are large, bulky and a bit expensive, I would like recommend canister filters as the best investment you can make for your turtle tank.

#2 Internal filters

Internal filters are entirely submerged into the tank. Internal filters do a great job in smaller tanks of 20 or 30 gallons as they do not have enough filtering capacity for larger ones. Although they are mounted inside the tank, they are small and compact and do not take lots of space.

I do not really satisfy with internal filters because they create the deafening noise. Not only that, they only provide mechanical filtration. Due to this, you will have to clean your tank and replace this filter media more often. Internal filters require you more effort of maintenance.

If you do decide to use an internal filter, be very careful when installing it and ensure that the wire is not be damaged. Cleaning internal filters are not easy at all.

#3 Hang on back filters

If you want to use HOB filter in your tank, you have to ensure that your tank have a filter cut out. This is because the water level in a turtle tank is usually lower about several inches than the top of the tank and HOB filter won’t work if the water level is lower than the filter.

The advantages of HOB filters are that they are compact, easy to install and quite long lasting, they are also work effective and sustain oxygenation.

However, the drawback is that since HOB filters are designed for fish tank, and turtles are messier than fish and produce more waste, so you will have to tank the HOB filters that rated for at least three times the amount of water in your red eared slider tank.

You will have to provide the best tarantula enclosure as soon as you bring it home. Luckily, one of the biggest attractive aspects to tarantula keeping is that of their relatively simple housing requirements.

In the last couple of weeks, I have spent some of my time for research and fact-finding some twenty different tarantula enclosures before I decide what is the best one for my tarantula. The health and happiness of your tarantula is entirely reliant on your choice. Here are some criteria, which will make an ideal enclosure for tarantula.

#1 horizontal or vertical enclosure

The shape of the enclosure is a crucial consideration. It will vary depending on whether you have an arboreal or burrowing or terrestrial species. That means the best shape of enclosures for a pet tarantula will depend on the species.

Arboreal tarantulas enjoy climbing. While buying enclosure for them, you will need to get vertical-shaped terrarium that has height over width. In contrast, terrestrial or burrowing species enjoy staying on the ground. Due to that, you should provide a horizontal-shaped enclosure for them, which is wide instead of tall.

As a basic guide, the enclosure for burrowing or terrestrial species should has the length dimension is three times the leg span, and the width of the enclosure should be double the leg span.

Either way, the ideal terrarium for tarantula should be made of glass, generally easy to clean and maintain.

#2 Added features

When it comes to tarantula, some of them climb, and some burrow. Therefore, it is important to provide them with added features if you want to keep them alive and happy. Arboreal tarantulas enjoy climbing, their terrarium should have assed features that allow them to climb on. They also make webs so some branches and twigs are placed in the tank will be a good idea.

If you hosing burrowing or terrestrial tarantulas, give them the substrate that allow them to dig inside. The substrate also should be at least four inches deep to facilitate burrowing.

Also keep in mind, most will require at the very least a small shelter that it can fit in comfortably to hide and rest inside.

#3 Covered-enclosure

Safety is the most important factor, especially if you own an arboreal tarantula. This is because they are tent to escape from their enclosure. They will jump out and leave the safety house if you do not keep an eye on them.

This is why the ideal enclosure that designed for arboreal tarantula must necessarily have a lid or cover. However, ensure that the cover has appropriate ventilation.

It is your responsibility as a ferret’s parent to provide your pets with the best ferret litter box and keep it clean. Cleaning a litter box is not one of the most interesting and pleasant jobs for anyone, but it is essential as your ferret may not go toilet in a litter box that it thinks is too dirty.

It is even more serious that dirty boxes can cause some health issues for your litter friends. This post is some tips and tricks that might make the maintaining of ferret litter box easier for you.

#1 Choosing an easy to clean litter box

A litter box that has low entry and a high back will ensure that your ferret and access the box and get out of it easily and the litter does not spill out of the box. Besides, choose the box that have the large size and straight it will make your work of scoop out the solid much more easier.

Many owners prefer to use the litter box with cover as they belief that it will helps mask the bad smell as well as the sight of the ferrets when they go toilet. However, your ferrets may not like to do business in a covered litter box as they feel trapped. If the box is litter small, your ferret even can get trouble to do their pooping position in a covered box.

Moreover, using a covered litter box means that you add more work in your cleaning routine. I would like to recommend you go with an opened litter box, which allow ferret easily get in and out of the box.

#2 Placing a rag under your litter box

You will simplify your work of cleaning just by placing a cloth or a rag under your litter box. In the case if the litter spills over from the litter box, the rag will help you to keep it. Due to this, it helps avoid your ferret track the litter all over the cage. Keep them away from towels or bathmats as your ferret may go toilet on these things if they do not find anywhere else to go.

#3 Choosing a good scooper

Not all the scoopers are the same. Do not choose any scooper that are not durable and tend to breaks under litter weight. Metal scoopers may rust over time and should be avoid. Scoopers that cause forearm strain also not good to use.

It is better to looking for non-stick material scooper as some litter tent to become sticky once they are wet. It also should have a rather wide front and corners that are very easy to clean. Ergonomic grip handle is a good factor to look for.

There is no denying the face that roaster over bring some benefits that make your cooking task much more easier It heat up fater, can be used for verities recipe, easy to clean and saving space. However, during shopping around for the best roaster oven you probably will come across models with an electric or halogen heater.

Each of these solutions has its own pros and cons. But if you are never learn about roster over, This can make you wonder what the difference between these two types of the oven is and which one to choose.

#1 Cooking time

Halogen roaster often take more time to finish your dinner. This is because if you want to cook meats and other complicated meals, which require high temperature, then you will have to spend at least 1 hour to wait until the halogen roaster cool down. Halogen oven requires one hour rest after each cooking session.

This is the problem if you need to cook 2 dishes with one halogen roster. An infrared oven allows you 2 hours of cooking at a high temperature. This amount of time is typically enough for making a complicated dish.

#2 Space

Halogen models are definitely more modern. That means they will give you a bigger field of action, because they are more efficient. However, halogen ovens often have the cylindrical shape. That means they take up much more space and it is difficult to set them in the kitchen. If you looking for the compact size oven then you should go with Infrared oven.

#3 Weight

Infrared ovens are usually lighter than halogen ovens. While halogen ovens often made of glass bases, which add a significant weight to the appliance. But due to this, they seem to more durable than the infrared units.

On the other hand, infrared ovens have plastic bases, which make hey easily develop cracks and are cheaper cost.

#4 Additional options

If you still hesitate between the two ovens, choose the one that has more additional options. Not all the oven has the additional options what make it more than only heat your meals. t is very useful if your oven come with some features of height adjustment of trays, defrosting, hot air, a special baking system for bread. However, it is obvious that the more options an oven has, the higher its price.

Ball pythons should not live in the bare enclosure floor. It is your responsibility to give them a comfortable, safe and natural bedding to slither around on. Instead of some material that you can collect from nature such as dirt or sand, bedding for ball python should have been processed to remove any toxic, bacteria, dust that are threatening the health of your ball pythons.

We come up here two best ball python bedding available on the market and the pros and cons of them based on multiple criteria: Kaytee All Natural Aspen Bedding vs Critters Comfort Coconut Reptile Bedding.

#1 All-natural material

It is obvious that there is no benefit more important than your ball python safety. Since ball pythons tend to swallow a small amount of substrate, they are vulnerable to toxins in their environment. The best substrate should be made of all-natural material, without any extra chemicals that cause a bad affect on your pets.

Kaytee Aspen is composed of raw and natural aspen shavings. It is specially treated to remove additional dust and does not make any mess in the tank. This substrate can keep your pets safe and healthy.

In addition to being a natural substrate, aspen can reuse as nutrient-rich compost for the garden. Besides, this bedding also contains no dangerous aromatics oil or ink.

Critters bedding made from 100% refined organic coconut coir, non-toxic and has no chemical touches. It is also environmentally friendly since it is reusable to improve the soil. Therefore, you can rest your mind that you provide them with this dust-free substrate.
