Had 14 of these "little"guys hatch out yesterday:lol:, first clutch for our pair. They don't have a bad attitude yet but I guess that's coming!! Never thought I'd be able to sit and hold 5 or 6 scrubbies at once!!

I was recently lucky enough to attend a work conference at a wild life sanctuary. Before getting in to this story i will not name which one it is, as i do appreciate their cause on their other efforts. Being all snakey and reptileish, this was the first area i ran to. They did have some nice...

With the recent bite post today I thought I would raise the question why do Python bites bleed so profusely. I mean each time I have been bitten (by my Darwins) there is always heaps of blood (usually instantly) for the relatively insignificant wound. I have a theory but have no idea if it is...

Thought it would be a good idea to take one of the scubbys upstairs and get a few pics wile I clean them out, it wasn't! Innocent snake: Seconds latter its under a coner unit pushing up and making things fall... We had a quite moment together holding hands... er hand and tail...

Just a thought :) Whatcha recon ?

I just emailed the guys at Proherp but it occurred to me that people here would be good to ask as well. I have two enclosures that are about 4x2x2 and 5x2x2 that I want to use them in. I'd like to just use a thermostat that just switches it off when the ambient temps get too high but in...

Just found a really big pooh. lol So took a pic and posted it on a reptile forum... hello. It came from inside this.. Everyone post your pooh pics?!?....

After a long, miserable day at work, I got home, got undressed and just wanted to relax. First, a quick check of the animals. Bummer, my female Scrub Python had emptied out, impartial slough and snapped her globe. (Not what I needed aft my day) Now, generally she's well behaved, (at...

I was looking at a spotted but I'm not sure. I wan a snake that I can handle and not get bitten too often. What's are yur thoughts?

Simple question: how often do you feed your python and what species is it?

Does anybody know roughly how much is added onto the shed size of a python due to stretching? My diamond just shed and her skin measured at 5foot 6inches, however she herself looks to be only around 5foot. Was just curious if there is an average stretching allowance or it depends on the python...

Hey guys, Lately I have heard of a few people give that vitamin and/or calcium supplements to their snakes. I was curious to know if this is a common practice and if those who do could post how they go about administering the supplements, what brands, dosage etc Cheers Josh

For example.. Carpet pythons are breeding with browns and producing cross breeds that look like carpets but have the venom of a brown snake... Or A fella told me that in Red Centre they have a snake called the Crimson Python and it grows to well over 6ft long....and crannnnky! Oh and I...

Hi, I had fun cobbling a video together this afternoon. I used video footage I took last night with my mobile phone, so please excuse the quality. I'm not all that happy with the music either. It's so much better with the Predator theme, but posting that version would have been breaking...

Hey guy's bought a beautiful little Children's Python the other week, I've let her settle in for a little over a week now but the breeder didn't handle her very much and she is otherwise a little bitey lol. She strikes at everything me, my family and even the Tv lol, I guess i'm just wondering...

Im sure i read about this guy in a thread on here the other day.... Pet hippo mauls owner to death - The West Australian

Long story cut short. My brother and sister where handling my big Coastal and I was sort of half having a nap on the loungeroom floor. The big guy comes over to say hi to me, snuggles into my side and flops his head down on mine and just relax's for a while. My sister thinks this is very cute...

I am always trying to raise the bar and push the limits on the enclosures previously but it gets harder and harder and the enclosures are getting crazier and crazier.....where will it end. The one I am building for the Ipswich Reptile Expo is certainly ticking all the boxes. It's a standard...

I'm looking at getting a python soon but I have a cat and will be getting another. I was wondering what people think about them living in the same household? I know the snake will be in an enclosure but I'm just looking to find out if others have both snakes and cats and how they kind of coexist?

One of my brothers has a 3yr old scrub python, he has had him for the last yr, he is pushing the 8ft mark now. The previous owner rarely handled this snake, & in the beginning it was very 'aggressive', it literally hated my brother even looking at it! I went around there yesterday to see my...
