Very nice. Is that a tree snake first up in the second lot of pics?

 

[mertle]

Naah earthling, it's a taipan that's what hubby thinks he remembers, I didn't look at the plaque, sorry!!

i woulda guessed taipan, what species is it in second pics next to the taipan? looks like a morelia but with unfamiliar (to me) markings?

 

[hodges]

looks like a liasis stimsoni (stimsons python or large-blotched python)
cheers

[bredli84]

thats what i thought at first brad, but the shape of the head looks a lot more triangular, maybe just angle of pic?

 

[hodges]

yea it does aye
hmm not sure
could be the angle
cheers

yeah had another look, the one on top looks to have a head like a carpet but the bottom one looks more like a stimsons. i guess i was hoping they were oenpelli's or somthing lol.
sorry for going a bit off track here Mertle. great pics by the way.

I love the RBBS in the first lot of pics, they are a top looking snake, I love how they flatten their head and neck out like that. Not sure if I have the ----- to keep one though.
