Absolutly gorgeous Deon, well done buddy.

Freshly killed or Thawed. At one stage I fed live, but saw to many of my snakes get wounds from rats, mice or rabbits that scratch or bite. It just causes unneccessary problems. So I prefer prekilled/thawed food, (which I breed myself) and never feed my snakes in their cages, they each have their de...

No No No, I'm sorry that is not attractive to me at all, I guess each to his own. I like my snakes feeling like snakes and looking like snakes not like some ( latex devices used to prevent impregnation)

Thank you i will contact my local Wildlife Conservation Office to find out more.

Its mostly for Corn snakes, King snakes, Milk snakes, Bumese pythons, Ball Pythons, Red tail boas & Leopard geckos

Hi all, I am looking for some information regarding permits and regulations in the Gauteng area. We are relocating in the next few weeks or so and I am wondering if anybody can give me some information regarding, what the regulations are regarding permits for certain species. I know that there are d...

OH MY WORD !!!!! those are stunning. Well done Chantel and Gav. Definatly one of the species on the top of my list (one day)

Welcome, to the forum. Agreed that this is a very very addictive hobby, you are always scouting magazines and shops for reptiles, we started with 1 gecko and it has just grown from there and still continues. I can feel a need for my next fix coming quite soon. This forum will put you in touch with p...

Awesum boa you have there. Will definatley be keeping an eye on this progress. Good luck

Stunning, congrats keep us posted on their progress.

Welcome to the family, this forum is a smorgasbord of information.

Lol last night I was doing the routine clean up and re watering, misting etc... and lo and behold Mr was nowhere to be seen. IMPOSSIBLE to escape that cage!!!!! so I open the top hatch and guess who is curled up and holding on for dear life to the handle fixture. Phew sigh of relief as I really did ...

Thank you Yes he is a stunning snake still a bit skittish and strikes wildly at first but soon calms down after a few minutes of handling. We have renamed him Houdini as this fella can escape virtually any enclosure, even after duck taping every possible hole closed he still managed to escape on sev...

I agree with Michael, the plastic plants are alot easier, we also tried considered the natural plant idea, but after researching and asking around we realised that it was not such a great idea after all. Plastic plants look attractive, last a lot longer and you get hundreds of different colours and ...

That is a fantastic set up you have there. Well done. I need something like that as well. With the ever growing need to have my next fix comes the space problem.

Are you wanting snakes exclusively or are you considering a gecko or bearded dragon perhaps? My kids aged 5 and 8 also wanted their own snakes which we agreed to. My son (5) chose a corn and my daughter (8) had her eye on a rectic, due to size issues we talked her into a snow corn. They love their s...
