Were you talking to Steven ? Near the displays ?
do you mean Steve C from Gilleston Heights?????
He is very cool! They were enticing but I'm not ready for a jungle yet, im too noobish ..
We are relatively 'newbish' ourselves, having a Spotty girl that is a big sook and never even looked like biting us, and a Port Mac Diamond that is not a biter (unfortunately not an 'eater' yet either :?) so we are probably due for something that is a little more testy. In saying that, a number of people have told us that the Cape York's tend to be noticeably calmer and better mannered than the black and gold varieties so here is hoping. The price was pretty good so we figured definitely worth a try.
We will be keeping our fingers crossed :lol:
We have Recently acquired a broome stimson. ill get a little more used to that then i might delve, maybe another at next years expo. I'm excited about that already It's lovely! I really Like the colours of yours, I think I prefer that to the black and gold.
We fell in love with a very nice Broome Stimson at SOFAR - You can't go wrong with Antaresia's I reckon. They do not grow to large sizes and are generally well behaved (and when not you don't have 6ft of snap'in snake to control!). At least with Antaresia you can get a good collection without needing huge amounts of space.
We also saw a some Pygmy Banded Stimson's which we liked as well......So many snakes....So little time!!
The Cape York Jungles are nice....the adult they had on display is what did it for me...it was very nicely colored and patterned. Interestingly after doing some research I am finding conflicting info about the Cape York Jungles - Some people call them Cape York Jungles, others appear to refer to them as Cape York Carpets. The Complete Carpet Python book does not show Jungles as being native to Cape York, only a small band of coastal rainforest in north Qld, so maybe these are some type of intergrade? Don't really care though....She is beautiful and that was why we bought her.
This is our guy! He is cool of a little cranky at the moment, but like you say, at least he isn't a BIG cranky guy .. I love Pygmy anything, so cute ..
I didn't see the adult but that hatchie is awesome colours meh, wherever he is from it's a good lookin snakey

and please correct me if i am wrong but we only saw 1 tree frog and 1 of my favourite toads, without a golf club in hand
