Hi, can anyone give me some care info on Eyrean Earless Dragon, Tympanocryptis tetraporophora? Yes I know that they are rare in captivity and expensive and yes I am prepared to take on feeding, heating and lighting requirements. Am going to start breeding, however will only be breeding Agamid's...
These are photos from a quick trip out to Broken Hill and Menindee in northwestern New South Wales. These areas are quite a distance from Canberra where I am currently working. I clocked over 3500 kms of driving in 4 days so I spent much of my time behind the steering wheel. As always, though...
Well Matt beat me to the APS post on this... but last is always better.
After a riveting day of school Matt and I wasted no time (Maccas is not wasting time!) getting to Little Desert NP
On arriving there we set up our camp, and the tempting calls of banjo frogs nearby lured us to their pond...
Heres just some pictures from around Melbourne and Vic, and some from a trip up to Western NSW.

Hey all, headed up to the Mallee over Cup weekend with a few mates to see what we could find. We started off at Little Desert, then moved up through Big Desert, and across to Hattah - Kulkyne National Park. Here is some of what we found. Enjoy the photos!

me and a chicken made our way to Mungo National Park last week.
Sitting in the car on the way got boring so we decided to open the windows and jump out in bendigo.
With perfect landing we stumbled across this disgusting creature.

Hi everyone, just finished a trip up to Mungo national park for 3 days.
It was about an 8 hour drive from melbourne, the first night we stopped in Hattah NP for 1 night, which is 1 hour south of Mildura.
Overall it was a good experience, i went with Richoman_3 (nick) on here.
Once again...
Over the Christmas break, I had the opportunity to make a quick trip to the Red Centre. It is a place that I've wanted to see for many years but never could find the time to get out there. Australia is a big place and the drive to the middle of the continent is a big one from the east coast...
So a little while ago I finished all my Uni exams for the year and my mother decided this meant we should visit the family in Adelaide. Since I'm such a keen herper I convinced her the best way to do this would be to drive from Newcastle to Broken Hill, and then down from there to Adelaide. This...

Hi all! I was just in the grampians in Victoria hiking and I came across a stumpy tail which I'm very familiar with but then I turned around and saw this little guy but I don't know what he is! Could it be a mallee military dragon? I'm unsure

At last, here is my final installment of the photo guide to Aussie lizards. Work was all consuming for awhile but things are settling again.
This post will cover the dragons and monitors.
Burn's Dragon (Amphibolurus burnsi) -- the first photo is of a lizard near Hughenden, Qld. I think...
Sorry about the massive pic but a friend of mine is studing animal science at Latrobe and apparently her teacher has been studing these little guys for over ten years.
Except i think its a Strophurus Williamsi....im so sure it is but she recons its a Ctenophorus fordi, commonly known as the...
I visited the Fowler's Gap area for a night in October, 2006. Fowler's Gap is located to the north of Broken HIll along the road that eventually passed to Tibooburra. The University of New South Wales operates an arid land research station here. This place is a bleak, inhospitible part of the...
Still no field herping section so it'll soon be lost...
Just got back from the mallee in SW NSW, we were trapping at a couple of sheep stations near Pooncarie :lol:
At the homestead we stayed at there were plenty of frogs out at night (we were right on the Darling River)
This tree...
