Dam longtom and Wrasse, I really want to go out and get some green tree snakes and a BTS (been on my wish list for a while now). You two suck (just kidding) More pics...

 

[craig.a.c]

Is that yours indicus? Awsome looking animals BTS.

 

[longtom]

hey indicus think your getting as good as david attenborough about time a few others have come to the party with some excellent pics was getting bored

 

[Wrasse]

Yeap, Jaws is a female Keelback, red phase.

 

[indicus]

No Craig' a wild one that i photographed hanging in a fuel bowser, 170km's west of here....

 

[craig.a.c]

indicus - How big was he?

I didn't think they got as big as yours Wrasse. I know they grow up to 6ft, but I always though they were just long and very slender.

 

[Wrasse]

Sorry, missed the fish question.

I only feed Jaws fish, never tried her on anything else. She is a voracious feeder and goes through about 6 goldfish a week. Amazing method of hunting though, basically, she jumps in the water, mouth open and goes hell for leather hoping to scoop something up. Then, when she does, she rears her head out of the water and gulps it down. Quite funny to watch, not a shy feeder at all and extremely entertaining.

A very good display snake.

 

[indicus]

About 4.5".....at a guess

 

[longtom]

seeing as your in brisvages like me wrasse ill keep an eye out for a husband for her you never know theres a few in collections just a matter of finding one whats she eat??

 

[Wrasse]

That would be great, thanks longtom.

Anything fishy, she isn't particular, platys, mollies, golds, as long as it swims and slips down her throat, she is on it.



craig.a.c, Bert is slender, just very very long, not measured him though, I guess that is now on my to do list.

 

[longtom]

hey wrasse that filey must put away alot fish what you feed it does it eat dead stuff if its fresh or only live

 

[craig.a.c]

Let me know what measurement you get when you do wrasse. He still spins me out.

 

[Linus]

He still spins me out.

Yep I agree Craig. I have never seen a Brown tree anywhere near that size. I thought the one indicus showed is more typical of their size. His head look slike its the size of a pythons.

Good stuff.
