    Some recent Australian highlights

    Myself and my partner have been on a few herping trips lately and I thought id put up a few of the highlights. I'll start with the local stuff. I've just done a couple of pretty dismal nights herping around Brisbane so far. As there isn't too much to find I've been able to experiment with...

    Wild Crystal substrate

    I've just been reading about the Wild Crystal substrate and have a few questions that you may be able to answer for me. 1. Does it stick to the animal like sand can? I'd like to use a more natural looking substrate in my tanks, but I don't like the mess that sand can make. 2. How long can you...

    What Monitors Do You/Have You Owned?

    Got my 1st Monitor today, a beautiful juvie male V.scalaris from boa, and I'm totally fascinated by his behaviour (the monitor's, not boa's) Apart from (almost) already proving himself to be an adept escape-artist, just the way he's exploring & probing everything is amazing. I was totally...
