6" Pot Prickly Pear Cactus - Usually comes WITHOUT PADS or with only MINIMUM PADS 

*Spineless Opuntia Cactus: Does not have long sharp spines. The tiny glochids (short prickles) can be irritating to the skin if the plant is not handled correctly. When handling the cactus, grab the stalk/pads where it is smooth and waxy, between the glochids; the dots/small bumps on the pads.

Each bare-rooted cactus stalk will come with either no pads or with only a few (typically 1 to 3) pads.  Pads can be gently separated/twisted off of the main stalk and propagated/rooted out in soil to grow additional cactus, or be used as a tasty snack for your hungry arid-dwelling critters!

*The plant pictured is not necessarily the plant you will receive, but will be same size and shape.*

Common Name: Prickly Pear Cactus

Scientific Name: Opuntia cochenillifera

The Dude recommends utilizing this BioShot for desert terrarium plants.

-Care Recommendations By The Dude-

Best for These Animals: Desert and arid dwelling reptiles such as bearded dragons, uromastyx, certain desert snakes, and more!

Bio Dude Substrates: TerraSahara, some TerraAranea 

Soil Depth: All soil depths with proper drainage.

Lighting: High.

Humidity & Misting: 0%-40%; none required.

Mature Plant Size & Root System: Opuntia are relatively fast-growing cacti with succulent paddle-like leaves which are very sturdy. The paddles may be easily pruned (and propagated!) as desired.  They have a shallow fibrous root system that may eventually grow mature thick main roots for anchorage.

Temperature Tolerance & Placement in the Terrarium: High heat/drought tolerant. Best used as a background or corner piece. 

Edible & Side Effects if Ingested: Non-toxic if consumed, and Opuntia in general are an extremely healthy nutrient source in which you can feed your reptiles. Naturally high in calcium and vitamins, Opuntia is a great option for your omnivores as a supplemental snack and will naturally encourage foraging in your reptiles.  They also produce an edible, bright red fruit (technically a berry).

Pot Size & Packaging: A single Opuntia plant is shipped bare root, wrapped in paper and packaged individually when ordered.

Tail came off right away
Size: 6 inch (Pack of 1), Style: Rabbit
Our little dog kept stealing a stuffed animal off our granddaughter's bed, so I decided to get one that was better suited to him. I liked that there weren't any eyes to pull off, although it does look weird without eyes. He really likes it and carries it around. The bad part is the tail came off almost immediately. He isn't one to chew up toys, so I just don't think it was attached firmly. I haven't tried to put it back on. I may just leave it off. So far the rest of the bunny is holding up.

Comfy slippers!
Size: 7.5 inch (Pack of 1), Style: Slipper, Size: 7.5 inch (Pack of 1), Style: Slipper
My dog eats a lot of things she shouldn’t but she hasn’t eaten the slipper yet. She loves the slipper almost as much as she loves rocks. Rocks are forbidden so we’ve convinced her the slipper is just as forbidden so she holds the slipper in her mouth instead of rocks when we’re on our walks. It’s very soft and it makes for a great hat to cover her snoot indoors. We’ve replaced the first slipper because she likes destroying the squeakers. She hasn’t been able to rip it out the squeaker or tear the slipper, but she isn’t too big on ripping things open unless they’re loaded with fluff. I guess we have a pair of slippers now.

This $6 toy cost more than $1 per minute.
Size: 9 inch (Pack of 1), Style: Bone, Size: 9 inch (Pack of 1), Style: Bone
For while it lasted, this toy was very fun for my 6 month old puppy! She had fun tossing it in the air and chasing it when it landed! Unfortunately, it was not very durable. The chewability is low. She had this toy for less than five minutes and I saw the polyester fill stuffing sticking out of her mouth. I have no issue with the size nor the color as they were as described. This is definitely not a good value for your money. On a side note, Ceci is not a destructive pup. She has toys from the day I brought her home four months ago that she has not torn up nor destroyed. She has $4 toys from a big box store that remain in tact to this day as well.

Not for aggressive chewers!
Size: 9 inch (Pack of 1), Style: Bone
I purchased two of these for my 10 month old Chug puppy. She very easily tore through the fleece and got to the poly fill stuffing...it barely lasted an hour. It may be great as a cuddle buddy for younger and low-enery pups, but I would not recommend for aggressive chewers.
