Hi guys,
Thanks heaps. First and foremost, great to know that these aren't of any major concern.
Come the weekend I'll take the snakes out temporarily, throw out the current substrate and give the enclosure and the logs a really good clean as suggested.
Bluetongue1 - that's the buggers!! Spot on. I must say I am a little bit grossed out by the whole cockroach thing, but again, just pleased it's no major cause for concern.
Jamie - You may recall my first post on here a little while ago querying whether I could place a Murray Darling in the same enclosure as a Jungle Carpet Python ...
Anyway, I wholeheartedly took on board the feedback on here that it was NOT a good way to go. The update to that story is that I re-thought the whole thing, cancelled the reservation I had on that particular MD, purchased a new enclosure and then ended up buying a yearling MD from a local breeder. Which, I might add, I am extremely happy with. So the top enclosure is holding the MD and the bottom enclosure is holding my 3-4 year old Jungle.
I think the more recent acquisitions i.e. the log that I bought for the MD could well have contained the cockroaches. I noticed them in the top enclosure first and then later in the lower enclosure.
Cheers
