Have you set you spell checker to UK English

My uncle used to keep snakes but had to get rid of them in the end as they where getting a bit big and one attacked him one day when it was a bit hungry. I love snakes but I couldn't handle the mice.

I was considering some terrapins once I think they are quite cute. But pets take a lot of looking after. I used to keep freshwater tropical fish and as you know the work involved keeping the water condition right and having to clean the tank out and stuff is a serious commitment.

mine ate rabbits... lol

Had Geckos and Beardies in the past my self

Got a number of books on Keeping Snakes

Got a Viv for a Brazilian Rainbow Boa last year but never got round to getting one,

Now decided i would like to keep a Python really want a Blood Python but decided to start out with a Royal first

Will Finish off setting up the Viv and then get one next week, not a massive fan of off the morths if you will i much prefer the vast majority of snakes natural patterns

I had lots of other stuff including a West african ball python in my bedroom, Tarantulas and Preying mantis, Assasin bugs, I was well proud of the salmon pink bird eater I had.


Now I just have 2 leopard gekos and a flame knee tarantula which belongs to my wife.

Used to have a Beardie but when she died we didn't replace her

We had a leopard geko for a few yrs, was the eldest daughters pet but as usual guess who had to look after it and also feed the crickets ( its a strange thing when you have to feed the food!)

I got the beardie off a girl that didn't look after him very well he had the wrong lighting and a poor set up

he had MBD (Metabolic Bone Disease) when i got him unfortunately but he still gave him all i could

Gave him the correct Lighting setup and environment,











Fully Straight he was 23 inch but it was bloody hard to get him to lie still and straight next to a tape
