On Saturday Lynda got a call from a couple in leschenault, they said there was a snake in the shed and it wasn’t moving. Upon arrival expecting a dead snake, we both got a shock, to our surprise one dugite was eating another dugite As you will see in one of the photos.
When Lynda bagged it up it kept on chomping down on this little dugite by the time we released it The Snake had devoured the other snake.

On Friday Justin got a call to meadow landing’s where a big snake was in a woodshed,when he got there they started carefully pulling the wood out of the shed. When they were halfway down the pile Justin had a look over the back of the wood heap and could see this Snake, so they kept removing the wood,when he got to the last bit of wood near bottom they got a shock when they realise how big this dugite was. Even with some of the tail missing it was about 1.7 metres , she had a stumpy tail from a previous injury and she was chockablock full of eggs, (gravid) justin carefully grabbed her by her tail and used the hook to support her belly and place her gently in the bag, when we went to release Mrs stumpy, she wasn’t too happy but then realised she was free and took off like a rocket . In the photos you can see Mrs stumpy get all defensive when we released her.

After yesterday's post we had a few messages about snakes being dangerous, mean and threatening people. Thought we would bring out this oldie to help illustrate exactly how it works.....
Have a great day everyone!

Just had a call from a lady out Boyanup to say she had a tiger snake in her archway cover in a vine , we jumped in the car and went out to have a look . When we got there she told us it was last seen on top of the timber archway so we had a look and there was this stunning little almost all yellow tiger ,with a bit of trimming of the vine to get a better view ,we worked together to guide the snake out of it’s hiding spot and with a bit of guidance the snake appeared to be easy to grab so justin grabbed the snake and dropped it in bag and released it away from harm . It was a team effort all round as we were working above head height the whole time . 🐍🐍

While at the Brunswick show yesterday we had a call from a lovely lady who had a dugite in her yard as she had eyes on we left the show to see if we could capture the sneaky little bu**er, on arrival it had gone next door but these absolute champions still had eyes on and omg this would have been close to one of the biggest we had seen in a long time 1.7 - 1.8m, while trying to capture her she decided she was not going to cooperate what so ever and make it very vocal that nope not going to do what you want and I’m gonna hide under a IBC garden bed 🤦🏼‍♀️ so we had to come up with a new game plan to safely capture this giant
So we placed a catchers bag each side and poked around a little and after awhile she decided while still vocalising her feelings to go hide in one of the bags, lynda had to very quickly scoop the bag up and close it up as was not a happy girl what so ever
There are no photos as it just wasn’t safe enough to muck around with her just to try get a photo but we do have a release vid

25/10/2023

Saying there was a dugite in a tree , upon arrival,the Snake had moved right up into a hole in the tree and no one could see it. In the meantime, Justin got another call to dugite in dardanup so instead of waiting for this one to come out the tree, he ducked over to dardy bagged that little dugite up and then started to drive back to Burekup when the lady called and said she had the snake already in the bucket. So justin swapped it from bucket to bag and released both snakes away from harm

Hey everyone if you are in the Bunbury area the girls from Discover Deadly doing a display at the science fair at the library, come in say hello and come check out their amazing reptiles 🥰

Todays relo was a juvenile dugite from South Bunbury I received a call from a lovely gentleman who had a snake in his backyard he was not sure of what type or even if it was venomous so he described it to me and I told him it was a dugite and to not get close but to keep an eye on it and I was on my way, by the time I had got there he had moved from his backyard to up the street where this champion kept an eye on him. He was a little tricky to get out of his hiding spot in the garden as he blended in so well but we got him in the end, he was a bit quick on the release so only got a quick video but no photos This dugite was one of the most darkest ones I have relocated in a long time absolutely stunning 😍 🐍🐍

Today’s second relo was this not so little dugite. I got a call from a lovely gentleman they were working in the garage and this juvenile dugite decided he wanted to join in but unfortunately they didn’t have any suitable work for him and decided he needed to go so we went there as quick as we could to escort him off the premises🤣🤣 When we got there justin and I had to come up with a quick plan to safely move the freezer so not only us but the snake was unharmed, as soon as justin moved the freezer I managed to grab him and guide him in to the bag were we relocated him to his new home away from people I do apologise I didn’t get any photos he was a little unhappy with being told he wasn’t allowed on the job site so for the safety of ourselves and the snake we went with a video instead 🐍🐍❤️❤️
