    So annoyed with the DEP

    So annoyed with the DSE Rang this morning to find out if there was any progress on the basic licence forms only to be told that we could have sent in old forms and probably would have had our licence around this time and only had to pay the cost difference. But if we were to do that now it...

    More Pygmy Python babies

    The second lot of pygmy pythons started pipping today. The books say that they are very shy and will pull their heads back into the egg if disturbed at all. These guys look like they are posing. Gives you an idea of size next to a 50c coin.

    Pygmy Pythons

    Pygmy pythons are showing all the right moves. Here is hoping as I am really looking forward to breeding these. I know that just because they look and act gravid it may never lead to anything, but let's hope.. Female with one of the males.
