backyard herps

[bredli84]

I've had various skinks, a couple of tristis monitors, a perente, heaps of Gilberts dragons, a couple of Stimpsons pythons, one Bredli and dozens of geckos.

you had a bredli in alice springs? i thought they were only found in a remote mountain range in the south of NT? do u think it was an escapee ,or are they actually in the area?

 

[spilota_variegata]

Not too common but they are out there. It was a young one so I can only assume it was wild. My house backs onto hundreds of acres of bush and it's right near a waterway (or should I say a sand way). We've had several caught at my place of employment and that's only 10 km (as the crow flies) away from the centre of Alice. Evidently they were a lot more common years ago Also have had them on the golf course and the local primary school.

I live in innercity brisbane and have found several species of skinks, water dragons (heaps), coastal carpet huge and coastal carpet hatchy (think it came from the huge one). Asian house geckos. That's all i can think of now. Found a road kill diamond python a couple of streets away. This little water dragon was a curious about me as i was abaut him, he followed me to the front door mat and then my kids scared him and he ran away.:cry:
