Aussie Pythons and Snakes - Other Animals http://www.aussiepythons.com/forum en Fri, 25 Jul 2008 08:38:07 GMT vBulletin 60 http://www.aussiepythons.com/forum/images/custom/misc/rss.jpg Aussie Pythons and Snakes - Other Animals http://www.aussiepythons.com/forum Feeding live...birds http://www.aussiepythons.com/forum/other-animals/feeding-live-birds-87801 Fri, 25 Jul 2008 06:42:21 GMT I've heard all the arguments against feeding live mammals to snakes, but are there different regulations on feeding live birds? In terms of damaging your snake, I wouldn't imagine a quail or chick could do much damage (compared to a rat).

Are the reasons against it just humane ones?

NB I'm not planning to do it, just curious! ]]> Other Animals jessb http://www.aussiepythons.com/forum/other-animals/feeding-live-birds-87801 fishing line + birds = nasty situation http://www.aussiepythons.com/forum/other-animals/fishing-line-birds-nasty-situation-87787 Fri, 25 Jul 2008 04:01:54 GMT Did a rescue last night of a Darter (water bird). It was tangled in fishing line and had swollowed a hook. I wish people would be more responsible when they go fishing. Did a rescue last night of a Darter (water bird).

Took this shot using the 128 LED 390nm UV torch as a light source. The epicuticle fluoresces a green visible light when exposed to UV light. Scorpions maximally glow under 366nm.

it was really simple, they got a metal rod with electricity running through it and placed it on the chickens head for a few seconds.. done.

I was just thinking whether this could be an alternative to not having to fork out for CO2 or even better for the softies... clonking.

reckon this would be effective with rats and all the rest? pose any possible cons for snake food?

thoughts? ]]> Other Animals Danny.Boy http://www.aussiepythons.com/forum/other-animals/culling-thought-good-method-for-the-softies-87723 Two-Headed Animals http://www.aussiepythons.com/forum/other-animals/two-headed-animals-87717 Thu, 24 Jul 2008 05:29:29 GMT Hi everyone,

Cheers

I have a "Guide to Australian Birds" book but it must be a bit out dated. I can't find the first 3 birds. Do you know what they are? The next little dark bird could be a greyfantail and the black bird I am thinking is a drongo going by the red eyes and shape of tail
