You should lend me some of those warty frogs so i can have them down aroung the place too, i think theyd be good at getting rid of the flies around here

As many of You know Australia is the only continent including Antarctica that does not have native Geckos, therefor they wouldn't compete with any local species. |

plenty of people on this site talk about helping the environment but it takes people like us to actually go out on our own and do somthing like this, regardless of the cost of airplane tickets

| | Regular Member | Join Date: May-07 Location: North Brisbane Gender:  | | | | I have a confession to confess. I was low on snake food and realized I had plenty of those ugly, warty frogs around and regretfully killed one to feed my Australian live bearing python. He didn't want to eat it first but I forced it down now hes having a little sleep. By the way, do any of your snakes sleep upside down. I only hope I didn't jepodise those frogs survival by sacrificing this one. |

I think we've almost milked this joke dry. |

| | Regular Member | Join Date: May-07 Location: North Brisbane Gender:  | | | | Yeah. like most peoples pets mine occasionally develop weird symptoms ( vomiting, seizures, etc) but normally pull through. The cause still eludes me. Hey my dad just sprayed some flies. My fish wont go hungry tonight. |

|  | Regular Member | | | | | I do find that spranging the insects does slow them down for my dragons, sometimes i just keep spraying and just coat the flies with insecticide it gives them a nice orange flavour that my dragons just love

| | Regular Member | Join Date: May-07 Location: North Brisbane Gender:  | | | | Hey, I used to do that as a kid with my food. I don't think it will hurt your lizards, afterall I turned out Ok.
By the way one of my pythons keeps looking up into the sky and having convulsions. Do u think I should just let it go. There are plenty of other pythons in the area so it should do ok. |  | | |
