This is getting serious now I think, people are starting to look at me strange! In the space of about 3 weeks we will have acquired 3 new snakes (jungle, diamond and a md) as well as a new baby beardy.
We are yet to pick up our MD, which should be this weekend I believe. After that, we really...

Hi,
My name is Eli and I'm an avid reptile enthusiast from SA. I've been keeping reptiles since i was about 15. I was quite naive back then and would often sell/swap animals frequently, something i now regret. Some of my old reptiles included a black headed python, a pair of diamonds, a...
G'day,

Also other than target training, are there any routines you use when...

Hi all,
I've been out of the herping picture for a little while (young family and all) and a little out of touch with whats happening in the hobby. For everyone who knows me my real reptile interest is in monitor species - all up I've kept 9 species so far.

Hi All,
I have noticed a couple of outdoor enclosures threads being posted and thought I would share some of mine which I have redone as of recent. I have posted some of these before but have redone the main pit and altered the landscape a little. hopefully it may give people some ideas.
Sorry guys but this is going to be one of 3 or 4 massive posts, this one covering the Western Brigalow Belt to Mt. Isa in October last year. I will try to leave as many boring species out as possible, the link above it will take you to my unfinished website that is a long way from completion, so...
