Pit Makeover

[FAY]

The pit in my thread "Building a Pit' became very over grown. The other week we decided to give it a makeover. The Grass Tree was a bit sick, I would say due to the humidity and all the rain that we have had. We actually took a match to it and hopefully will come back. Time will tell.
We still haven't quite finished as we need to get a lot more pebbles to put around the pond as the original pebbles seemed to get taken over by the sand, so I have bought some bigger pebbles.

Nice looking pit, was that ur pit that was in reptiles australia magazine? Looks almost the same to me or wat I can remember

Works well with the wild ones. You'll only need a week or two to find out if you succeeded.

 

[FAY]

There are cunningham skinks, eastern blue tongues, barbata,, eastern long necks turtles, water dragons and a Land Mullett.

No, it was not in Reptiles Australia.

Well lets hope the grass tree comes back.

I love Land Mullet, is it very big?

 

[FAY]

Yes, very big and VERY shy. You sound like you have eaten it?

 

[scorps]

Whats a grass tree?

Dw just googled, looks to be the politicly correct term for blackboys?

lol love how names get changed

 

[FAY]

Yes, formerly named 'Blackboy'.

Haha had no idea what you were talking about till you said that. From what I hear they need a good burning every couple of years so this should come back strong

 

[FAY]

Let's hope so, that it comes back as it was spectacular. We have also cut off the bottom branches of the banksia as well. And you can see a multitude of logs outside that have gone back in.

Fantastic job, that looks great! Your animals must be very happy

 

[cadwallader]

Great job would love to do some thing like that for my turtles

I am sure it will look great once you have finished refurbishing it Fay.
