    As Promised My Reptile Family Part 1

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    This is Ringo my Pueblan Milksnake who started it all.



    Zag our female Boa Constrictor. She's 5 1.2ft long and very gentle.





    Zig our male Boa Constrictor. He's a big lad but very, very gentle too.



    Sunny my male Brazilian Rainbow Bow. He's still a baby. We've had him since he was 5 weeks old. He's very friendly and inquisitive. Unfortunately, it's very difficult to capture his wonderful irridescence on camera.



    Byron my wonderful Royal Python trying to get at my coffee. He's stretching out as far as he can get to try and help himself.



    Bobby my other Royal Python. He is a rescue. When we got him he was painfully thin but soon put on weight. This is my favourite head-shot of him.



    Jake is another rescue. He was sold for £10 beer money and is badly scarred due to him being burned by an unguarded lightbulb. He's a beautiful snake and very good natured despite having an awful start to life.



    This pic shows the worst scar. He has no scales on this part of his neck and has patches all the way down one side where the scales will never grow. Despite that, he's doing really well and is very friendly.



    This is Nigel. He's an Albino Cali Kingsnake and we were going to introduce him to Sammy this week after they'd been fed. Sadly, it wasn't to be so eventually I'll have to find another girl to pair him with.

    There are a lot of unwanted, unloved bikes out there - go on give a bike a good home

    OMG!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!! Your herp family are ABFAB!!!! Rainbows are simply gorgeous and yes it's hard to catch the luster and color that gives them their names on film.
    I LOVE their names as well, isn't it funny that Byron would try to get at your coffee. He must think, "Mum thinks it's good so let's check this out"
    Your photos are as gorgeous as the snakes. The head shot of Bobby is incredible and scars and all Jake is a beautiful boy.
    Don't think of it as getting hot flashes. Think of it as your inner child playing with matches
