Hi All

[CJ1978]

Hi there,

This is my first post and hence my introduction to this forum I don't currently have my own snake yet but I hope to change that shortly (I already have my licence). I have been in contact with someone via this forum and hope to get a blonde spotted python in the next couple of weeks. I have some experience with reptiles and have a greek tortoise and 4 eastern snake necked turtles (stinkers ).

All the best,
Carl

Hey Carl! You sound simliar to me.. I've had my license for the 2nd time round (after it expired the first time) for several months now and am still waiting on my first snake.
Welcome to the site! Feel free to post pics of your current reptiles...you'll find that alot of us here are sticky beaks.

Got my Blonde spotted Mac!!

Hi all,

Finally got my first snake. And what a lovely he (or she?) is... I've decided on calling him Frankie (just in case he turns out to be a she).

Here are a couple of shots of him and the new home.
He is a yearling (its actually his birthday tomorrow - perhaps a fuzzie is in order
I'm using paper towels in the click clack but will get some better substrate tonight at the shops.
Comments welcome
Thanks all,
CJ

No better substrate than paper towell for little ones IMO Very Cheap

 

[CJ1978]

Hi again,

Yup - he's eating great - took 2 fuzzies in as many days! I hope he doesn't get fat!!!
Kinda scared me - I was hoping he would strike when I waved the fuzzie in front of him (with BBQ tongs - which reminds me - I should get some more) - but then I thought he wasn't hungry - but suddenly he struck... I'm kinda not looking forward to when he's bigger and wants to strike me
But all the same - I love him - he's ace

Thanks for the tip. Your right though. Its easy to take a piece out when it gets soiled, and the price is right!

Perhaps you might want to be a little less "open" in regard to telling folk that you keep exotics??? Perhaps the Greek tortoise you speak of, is actually a short neck Mac who dislikes water and answers to the name Con???
