Reptiles

My buddy is huge into turtles got all kinds. Side necks, alligator snapper, common snapper, Mata Mata. I have to take some pictures next time I'm at his house. Me and him go to all the reptile expos when we can I get snakes he gets turtles.

 

Iv only come across one other snake i wasn't able to calm down was a Nicaraguan boa. He didn't snap at the glass but if your hand went in uou were getting bit. And the noise he just hissed constantly. 4 months of work with 0 improvement.
These days with me out of town so much and the misses needing to be able to manage them if I'm not home so taming them down is a high priority.

 

I've tried with this guy. But he just hates me. I pulled him out 1 time thought he was gonna be cool than he just clamped down on my forearm. Had to run his head under the faucet to get him to let go. The only snake out of 6 others that wants me dead lol.

 

Little vinegar or listerine goes a long way to making them unlatch real quick. Sounds like a crazy feed response compared to a defensive strike if he latched right on.

 

My mbk just had a nice healthy shed

 

I'll have to get a few good pictures of all the boas once the moonglow and motely shed out. It's always nice when you get that clean one piece shed. Let's you know your humidity is all in check

 

My mbk instantly went and hid when I was taking out his shed. But man is he a beautiful snake.

 

That's always such a frustrating thing with some snakes. Just want to see them but just so shy. Definitely not a problem with my olive or macklots. I get home from work and the olive comes out. She's borderline social...

 

My cali king is like that everytime I walk past his tank he comes out to greet me. He kinda reminds me of a dog he's very social doesn't like to be held all the time but will let me pet the top of his head.its comical

 

Not reptiles but close enough, we finished up the new set up for the Amazon milk frogs over the weekend.

 

I think the frogs are gonna love it. Awesome terrarium

Meet Mr Marty. Always wanted an ackie monitor but the price was always to high years ago.

It's been a long few months getting this move dealt with and getting everything back in order.
Sold off the 4x2x4 and replaced it with an 8x2x2 to better suit the olive.


And some happy critters finally settling back in.
