    Do you worm your snakes?

    As the title suggests- Do you worm your snakes? And if YES then with what and how often. Am going down this path especially for the ones I keep outside.

    Relocation Scrubbie cage.

    Here's the carcase for the relocation Scrubbie I picked up earlier this year. It's 2100mm (L) x 900MM (H and W). I chose 30mm pine as it's a little colder in Armidale than Cairns:)! I'll post updates as it nears completion, if anyone's interested.

    Scrubbie feeding!

    Guessing ***!

    Any ideas on the *** of this Scrubbie I've mentioned in another thread? Even an educated guess would be good! The tail is relatively long, probably 400mm+ on an animal that's approx2.5 metres, if that helps. You can just make out small spurs either side of the vent (black scales).
