I was looking at a 5yo water python today, great looking snake at a great price for 1 reason, it bites. I put this down to the fact that its an ex breeding snake so it wasn't socilized much for its 1st 3 1/2 years of its life, add to that its enclosure is way to small IMO. The enclosure is...

Scaleless Ball Python! SnakeBytesTV - YouTube how many time have someone posted up a hatchling missing scales or scale size variations and had it dismissed as nothing...

No one is going to stop the breeding of jags, zebras other cross morphs, so what should be done with the sibs? I personally think that they should be culled, so that these mongrels don't get sold and then passed off as "pure".

Looking for a proven male GTP, not in any rush just looking for the right animal at the right price. Cheers 0404 471 164

Okay, so before I start this Thread I'd like to point out that I have never caught and kept a snake from the wild and all my snakes were bought from a breeder and are registered on my licence. I often ponder the thought of how I would react to stumbling upon some amazing genetics of a reptile...

Hi Guys, I ve newly joined and must say its a great site to jump on! Love to see all the great collections and hope to breed snakes in the future. Its now time for my gorgeous gtp to move house... it seemed like only yeste I picked him up from the airport in bris and he wrapped himself round...

Hey all it's another waterproofing question, I'm getting a couple of boyds and am about to convert a corner cabinet into an enclosure and cause ill have soil and live plants like this enclosure I will need to water proof the bottom for the drainage just wonder what would be the best? this is my...

I would like to start out by saying there are many ways to skin a cat, this is just how I do it. Removing stuck sheds does little good in the grand scheme of things if you don't fix the UNDERLYING PROBLEM(S). In my case, well most cases for that matter improper sheds are due to improper...

I've having a few plywood enclosures made up, up until now I've only ever used melamine & tubs. They're being used to house Green tree pythons & Roughies. I plan on painting them, what kind of safe sealant can those with experience recommend? Is it possible to retain a matte paint look with the...

Just got home to my High blue GTP starting to lay her first clutch and my first eggs of the season. No pic's of her laying as I don't want to disturb her, but I can see two eggs so far. Here's some pics of her Gravid anyway.

Yesterday was the first time I have ever lost a snake .. It had to be my 3 1/2 year old GTP .. When I bought him 4 months ago he hadn't eaten for a while and was told that its typical with GTP that they go through a stage of not eating . I bought a female at the same time and she stopped eating...

Hey my partner and i was just wondering if you can get albino Geckos in WA, we don't know what sort of geckos are own able here and are just curious. i am also wondering about chameleons are they also available to keep over here as well. some one with a response would be greatly appreciated...

I’ve been fairly paranoid with feeding my GTP and as a result I think I’ve been a bit overly cautious. I was informed that fur is really important so it’s currently on one small mouse hopper about once a week which I think leaves an appropriate sized lump. However, it is about 10 months old now...

post a picture of you're favourite pet reptile that you own this is my Ackie

Only a few pictures taken on a phone whilst I had them out cleaning and weighing. Couple more pictures to come as the app only lets six at a time.

Hello, I'm a journalism student at Monash University and am researching a story on the domestic black market trade in protected wildlife including reptiles, and thought that this forum may be a good place to get some information about the prevalence of this trade. It would be a great help if...

Me I love my coastals so come on let's see all the python lovers what do you all love most?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Both my pythons are 8 months old, one is a woma the other is a jungle. The vast size difference in their food items amused me so I thought I'd share :)

Hey guys, new member and first time poster so go easy.. :rolleyes: ive got a gtp and she is about 11 months old n0w, she has started going through her colour change, and weighs around 31 grams.(not sure what a average gtp around this age is) The problem.i have with her is she wont eat. The...

Hi all I was just wondering if I should get a friend for my 6 month old stimson. Any suggestions? I think Felix is a girl. Gulp* we thought he was a boy

I have a pair of yearling hypo bredli for sale. Great pair, not very snappy. Female has a few darker specks coming through and is about 1200mm long give or take. Feeding on weaner rats to small medium rats. Never missed a feed. Male is smaller, about 1100mm but thinner. He eats well but just...

Who else would love to have 1 of these, seen this Albino Burmese at the Australia Zoo on Tuesday and fell in love, unfortunately the Keeper would not let me handle it as it was due for a feed that afternoon (half a goat, in winter and a full one in summer) i did not want to drag myself away but...

anyone able to help please PM for my number, my gtp has twisted her jaw while trying to eat and is unable to realign it

What exactly is it ? Recessive ? Co-Dom ? The complete carpet python book has the silver peppered and says it had appeared in a random clutch and they believe its recessive but not yet proven, Is this the same blood line just bread to something else or something completely different ? Haven't...

Is breeding a stimmi x spotted legal, not that i would ever consider breeding that combination its just Ive seen hatchies advertised that are 50/50 stimmi and spotted and ive always thought breeding two separate species was illegal. Can anyone educate me in this matter?

After seeing the zebra super form in S&T a while back I have developed a fascination with Zebras; but there doesn't seem to be much information available on them in Australia? I have seen a reference to a 15K price tag for a zebra jag but where is the info on just normal zebras? What subspecies...

Hey all I was just chasing some info. Im looking at getting my first snake soon an having some trouble deciding which way to go. I have had minimal experience with snakes before ( not keeping ) but I do relocate snakes for free in my home town I was looking at a bredli but my cook thinks...

Hi All.. Just after some advice for this exo-terra enclosure I recently got as an upgrade for my GTP. The dimensions are 600mm long x 450mm wide x 900mm high. So what I've done so far is I've cut out a lid from HMR melamine to replace the fly wire lid and then mounted an 80w ProHerp panel on...

Ok playing Devil's advocate here... Justin Julander keeps pairs of carpets together all year round. He is one of the main guys involved with carpets and many other snakes for that matter. Now if it's good enough for him, why do so many people with only a fraction of his experience say not to do it?

Hi all, just thought of another show us your and I'm sure there a heaps of people out there who spent a long time on their pets enclosure. And I'm sure it will give the people who are looking to build one (like me:)) some awesome ideas. Anyway, GET THOSE SPECIAL ENCLOSURES OUT THERE!!! ;)...

How do you get the PVC pipe through the tubs so the GTP's can curl up there?

Finally, I hope you have come this far and question five here puts things into perspective. Please have a say and PM me if you don't want a name next to your voice. I appreciate all you have done! You have all read and many have answered the four questions I have posed to date, there were...

My 8month old woma had a trouble shed last month so when his eyes clouded up a few days ago I thought I'd just leave him alone and not interfere to "help" this time. Just checked on him and this is what I found. Should I leave him alone to rub the rest off or put him in a bath? There are flakes...

Hello, Quite a noobish question here, but is the little dark tip on the GTP a spinal kink? or is that hows its suppose to be? Please excuse the photo, I just finished misting the enclosure down and noticed it. Cheers.

Devil's Ivy commonly kept with Green Tree Pythons is toxic to animals if ingested, does it have the potential to cause skin irritation without being ingested?

Hello again - thanks for all those who are responding. This is my third f five questions and I can see there is some debate and consternation. I was at an expo in Queensland a few years ago and there were a few thousand patrons there including the Parks and Wildlife Service. This Expo had...

My 7 month old Stimson is the biggest wuss in the whole wide world when it comes to shedding. Basically he goes in to hiding for 9 or 10 days before he sheds. He does not move out of his hide. I would think he was dead if he didn't stick his head out when we offer food. At the moment he is...

:lol:

Anyone have any advice on jungle pythons? Male or female? what are their respective personalities like and how do each take to handling? also, pattern wise, how are male and female respectively? Cheers

Im going into doing a little freelancing (Drafting/Designer) and decided that i should create a corporate profile to seem more professional. The first hurdle was thinking up a business name. So i put it to you, What would your business be called ? (Promise i wont steal the idea)

Hey all, thinking of starting out with a snake. What would you recommend that is not aggressive and skittish and wont mind being handled on occasion. I was something that is also pleasant on the eyes, so bright colour/nice markings. Not too large but small like a coral snake or something. Im not...

Just thought i would throw up some pics of the family...

As well as the shot glasses in the other thread, we are also thinking of custom laser etched glass photos of your reptiles. Something along the lines of you submitting your photo(s) and we etch into a panel of glass mounted in a frame. A unique way of displaying photos of your pets. Examples...

Hi everyone. I thought I'd make my first post after lurking around here for a little while. Always been a fan of snakes but only recently became a fellow snake owner earlier this year, along with my brother and his girlfriend. They are extremely addictive, and trying to refrain from just buying...

Hi everyone, I moved to Australia from the UK about a year ago and I left my beloved Carpet Python, Pilbara, behind in the UK :-( Obviously Australian immigration laws for animals are very strict (and rightly so too!) but I am really keen to have my snake over here with me (he is the family pet...

Well, I got my first snake a few years ago and have since had several, however due to circumstances I got rid of most of my collection (apart from my bredli which I couldn't ever bare to part with). So things have changed and I am able to start getting some more snakes :D!. I'm thinkabout...

I know its a little early this year (well it is for me) but i was just seeing if anyone has any girls belly up looking like a sausage full of marbles yet? Post pics of your Gravid Girls.. :) So far ive got one mossman stimi who is looking good this season. ill post a pic when she is for sure.
