Thought I'd share a photo of these pretty pythons.

Curious to see how everyone ended up with scalies in their house and at what age. :) For me it is how ancient and different they are, and how successful they have been over millions of years.

Hi, I've had my new 4/5 month old beardie for a week now and yesterday and today he has been off his food and sleeping seemingly 24/7. Sometimes if I disturb him he goes into a sporadic state of looking around really fast (sometimes tripping himself over) and being generally agitated. He was...

A couple more of these magnificient animals have been found. Gavin Bedford should be very happy.

Just wondering for those who keep feed records. Say you've gone to one pet shop/breeder but for whatever reason had to switch to another. When you make a purchase/keep a feed record... Do you go by the label on the Rat or the weight? I'm asking this because I've recently done a switch from one...

Evolution Of Aversion: Why Even Children Are Fearful Of Snakes Hey guys, was browsing around today and found this, it's an article about how the fear of snakes, spiders etc, may have evolved over time. The fear arose as a way for early humans to detect snakes easier. I think I read somewhere...

Hey all, well, i've decided to start constructing my hatchies full enclosure now so it'll be ready by the time he's big enough to move in. I'm thinking of going for a 1200mm(L)x 1200mm(H)x 900mm(D) enclosure. Is that too big? Would 600mm (D) be fine? I'm trying to work out heating arrangements...

Was just looking through the current species list for Nsw reptile keepers licences and saw the Olive pythons are on R1 companion, now i dont know about you but i thought that a python that can grow upto 13-foot would have to be altleast on R2 or R3, so that it being on R1 would mean that a...

I posted about my male carpet losing weight, not eating and having runny poos. Well twice now I've found this in his poops. He's been away from the girls about three weeks now and one laid a clutch others gravid. So could it be a sperm plug? It didn't seem like one. Or do you think its a...
