Hi all, I recently moved to Darwin from Newcastle and on the drive up, while travelling at 130km/hr on the Barkley Highway, I spotted this little guy on the side of the road. I was over the moon to see one of these guys in the wild, moreso impressed I spotted him while travelling at that speed...

By researching your animal, you too can avoid unsightly stains & odours! That's right, by having a fair idea what a 'cloaca' is & where it is located, and by noticing a droplet forming from said 'cloaca' while handling my new Childreni, unsightly stains and odours on both furniture & owner...

Rescued this guy off the road before a road train nearly got him. maybe one of the mods can resize for me

seem Chris humfrey's is selling his adult boyds on http://www.reptilesdownunder.com/ahc/search.php he is in vic. there must be a way you can get them on your license in vic but i dont think on the main list of species we can keep.

I know im a pain in the but about asking about hard to get herps ,but does any one know of any breeders of thorny devils. Any help would be greatly appreciated
