[shamous1]

Hi all just thought I'd share some pics I took today at Melbourne Zoo today at the Albie compy draw. I need your help though as we do not know all of the names of the animals. Forgot.

I'll start with the ones we know.

1 : Eyelash Viper.
2 : GTP
3 : GTP
4 : Pygmy Mulga's mating
5 : Rhinoceros Viper

I know the name of number 11 but it eludes me. On the tip of my tongue......

Great photo's you got there, I'm guessing there would have been more than a few herpers there today

 

[shamous1]

Is it?

Is it a diamond back rattler?

 

[shamous1]

Not too many

I thought there would have been a lot more but it was a great day and people probably did a bit of work in the garden or went for a drive somewhere.

I was thinking more along the lines of a pit viper. I could be wrong in the end. I am not too good with the exotics, probably cos there are so many of them

Yeah. Very Very Very Very funny that fishing trip mate. Did I mention Very funny?

I can't believe that. I thought you knew your stuff:lol:

Well, needless to say, after staying up until after 3am, made brekkie, got my lunch ready, THEN realising I forgot to renew my licence was quite disappointing. I just went to bed after that and slept until 12:00pm.

Well, I'm pretty sure that,

7. Ridge Tailed Monitor
9. Common or Green Iguana
10. Fijian Crested Iguana
11. Western Diamond Back Rattlesnake
12. Green Basilisk
13. Phillipine Sail Fin Dragon (female, so no "fin")
15. Jackson Chameleon

Pit Vipers are rattlesnakes. lol Not sure if I am correct though but I think I am. Can anyone shed some light. We are both probably right to some degree.

I think that's one of the funniest things I have heard of for a while.
I have'nt had a sleep in like that for over 14 years, since the advent of (my) kids anyway.:lol:

Gee thanks......

I am happy to say though that I went to Kmart today (as I had nothing else to do) and bought a new licence. He went fishing again in the afternoon and didn't invite me this time.

jonesc1. either you are very good, have quick access to a great book or did I say very very good?

What you have typed has just jogged my memory and I believe your spot on.

Thank you very much.
