Photos Australian Reptile Centre

Couple of photos for everyone from the Australian Reptile Centre here in Canberra

i will get up some more pics later, just seems to be taking a while at the moment.

Is that a GTF in with scrubbies:shock:?

yeah, I think it is too

are my eyes deceiving me?? is that 3 different snakes in 2nd pic??

Yeah there were actually two of them, there is one in the top corner of the enclosure as well. Supposedly they have been in there for a long time.

And a Death Adder in with a jungle :shock:

Where is the bredli and skink shots..hahaha

Looks like they don't like removing the sloughs either

Bredli and skink shots

Yeah there is a Jungle in with a adder, which is interesting, but obviously goes to show he has no real issues.

Leaves the slough in to show people, topic of conversation.

The guy who runs it certainly knows his stuff.

cool photos mate

Is that the one

Is that the one at Goldcreek?

Yeah that is the one.

I went there a few months back. Not a bad setup with some very nice animals. However, after talking to the owner for quite some time I got the impression his knowledge of reptiles was very old fashioned(where we were 20 years ago) and he had not bothered to update his current knowledge. He also does not have a very good sense of humour and took everything very seriously.

Taronga had a BTS, GTP and 9 Green Tree Frogs altogether in one cage with no problems. Although admittedly they wouldn't have been too concerned if a couple of the frogs 'disappeared'.

Bigguy, ya back mate!

Nice pics there Slothy, love the Tiger.

thanks Puglsy, was going to photoshop the taipan a little to make the image better, but you know, just cant be bothered right now

Thanks for posting the pics SlothHead, it was a pleasure viewing them.

Couple more

I actually bought a snake off Russell who runs the reptile centre in Canberra, he does know his stuff, and feel he is a person that takes a while to get too know. All in all, he was nice and the centre is well set up.

There doesn't seem to be many off us in the ACT district.. well not that I have met anyway
