Figured I would put up some photos of some snakes I own to see if we can get this plan on a roll again. Annoyingly the uploader was not working correctly and was failing to load most of my images so most of these are old photos. Cheers Cameron

a mate up in cairns just posted this on facebook, anyone know what kind of snake this is? just over a mtr long

This little chap was found just outside the office this morning and considering the size, I didn't need to break out the hook and bag. It is roughly 20cm long and very alert as to whats going on around it. Im unable to get to any of my guides to confirm what it is until late so, apologies for...

I went to an animal expo and took a few photos of some snakes, after a while I fell in love with a specific one but never got the name, could anyone help.

9 days in Brisbane and I spend some time in some "wild" places so I've met some interesting guys ! I've visited (very quickly) the Mt Coot-tha botanical garden, a nice experience. Dwarf tree frog, Green Tree snake, Cane toad, Asian House gecko, Water dragons, some turtles and some water skinks...

Hi guys, I have recently had a couple snakes on my property. They are not overly aggressive however don't move on without a bit of effort. I have done a bit of research but still not convinced on what species they are. I originally thought they were Keelbacks (may still be) however they do not...

Many times on this forum I see threads about mixing one genetic morph from one species to another and the usual flame fest ensues. Like clock work there will always be posts claiming how the same can be achieved by keeping the line "Pure" So lets see them! please include pictures of all types...

I don't know if this qualifies as 'news' since it's from 2008, but I stumbled across this article recently ... The snake that eats toads to steal their poison : Not Exactly Rocket Science Apologies if it had been posted previously, or is common knowledge, but I found it intriguing!

A work colleague of mine found this little fella today while digging under some machinery. We it in a safe location and let him on his way. Could anybody give me an I'd on him. It was hard to get a good pic. Was found in Mossman North Queensland. Thanks

In the garden pebbles. Port Douglas QLD. Very fast. Fiesty. Can get more pics if needed as I now have him in an old hatchy tub.

Poor guy dead on the side of the suburban street. Port Douglas. Hes about 13-15cm long. Can add a couple of more pics if needed.

Hi guys. Do you mind if I hijack this thread for a snake identification of my own? This was taken along the Ross River in Townsville. unidentified snake by Oriolus84, on Flickr While I'm here, I wouldn't mind your opinion on this skink as well. I was thinking Lampropholis mirabilis? Taken on...

Hi, I'm new to this forum and wondered if anyone could help ID this snake I saw today. It was in the Gold Coast hinterland, in a habitat with lots of water and bushland around. It was lying across the path (an area of medium length cut grass, which was very wet) and was still. It was about...

So guys, this has actually already been ID'd for me from multiple trusted sources, but I didn't ID it myself. I thought since the photo quality was pretty poor I'd put it up here and see how you guys went IDing it, and I'll let you know if you're right or not. Untitled by Stephen Mahony, on...

Hi guys! Found this guy out at Dayboro QLD on the North Pine River enjoying his meal. ID please?

As the title suggests, I'm stumped. That's not hard to do though :P. I caught these two little ones at work today. I know my pythons, but I've got no idea when it comes to other snakes. Just wondering if anyone can enlighten me on what they are? The pics aren't the best because they were taken...

Greetings everyone, I went on a brief trip to the Northern Territory last week. I have always wanted to see this area during the monsoon when it is lush and green. It really was a lovely site. The only problem with a visit during the wet was that the highway between Darwin and Kakadu can...

So I have read a lot on this forum that 'snakes do not like being handled - they tolerate it' However my woma seems to love it... At the same time every evening I find her 'tapping' her nose on the top of her click clack, so I open it and within about a minute she comes out onto my hand that I...

Hi, My two dogs had spent a bit of time in the back garden and when we went to investigate, we found the shed skin as shown in the photos attached. Is anyone able to identify if this is a python or snake - and if snake, what sort? It's not very long (~under a metre), but it doesn't appear to...

I ran over this snake on the road in the early hours today, didn't see it till the last second. Looking in a book I have here it looks like a Tipan, but the markings don't match what the book has. Thanks. A larger version is here >...

Hi, Just stumbled across this little guy in my vegie patch, unfortunately for him (but I suppose fortunately for me seeing as I almost stood on him) the dog had gotten to him and he was dead. However seeing as I have young kids and god forbid they ever get bitten, I just wondered if anyone...

Seeing its getting colder which leads to a decline in herping threads (plus I'm just bored on a Sunday night) I thought I'd throw up some pictures of the snakes I have photographed so far this year. Majority of pics have maybe been seen before. Cheers. Bandy Bandy Vermicella annulata Brown...

We have this book by Eric Worrell. It is called 'Things that Sting'. Published 1976. Reprinted 1980,1983. It says on page 21. Quote FROG ' Some frogs exude a whitish fluid from their skin if they are meddled with. This fluid can cause irritation. Green Tree Frogs are the only Australian frog...

His site was near Mena Creek in a patch of secondary rainforest. I first spent time at the site in August 2008 while assisting another...

A mate and i went for a walk around the local duckpond and found this little guy. So my friend ran home and grabbed the camera. He just sat there and we took some pics then he slithered off. LOL (we didnt mess with it just took some pics, Dont flame me). Any ideas as to what it is>? :D

I came across this guy while in the Daintree Rainforest, walking up a creek to Alexandra Falls, and am curious what it is.

I've just returned from a trip to the Gulf of Carpentaria, north of Mount Isa. I think the highlights were the olive pythons (we found two) and Cryptoblepharus zoticus (Cryptoblepharus is my favourite skink genus), plus the bats. Species marked with an asterisk (*) are ones which I hadn't...

Righto. I want to usurp The Other Thread and make a new 'longest running thread' on this site. Who wants to help? Unfortunately I've only seen four out of Australia's approximately eleven species. Hopefully I'll add to my count later this year with a trip up north. Brown tree snakes (Boiga...
