Someone is getting bigger by the day! Currently in shed, so all going well (if timing is right), babies should be here in the next week or so 😱

Keeping bobtails outside is a super rewarding and easy way to keep them. Having them in as natural an environment as possible ensures they get all the uv and heat requirements they need, as they are found all throughout Perth (and a good chunk of southern Australia). It also provides them with a natural breeding cycle, and we have bred them every single year in our outdoor pits. Create an escape proof area, make some hide boxes or things they can crawl through/ under, have some plants or natural grass for cover, a nice big water dish that always has water on it and a way for them to climb out if they go in it, throw leftover fruits/ veggies in there a few times a week or feed them dog food/ mince, and you’re guaranteed to have healthy and happy mini dinosaurs. Even being outdoors, they can become exceptionally tame, and this little one has fast become one of my favourites. Every time I head outside to feed, weed or top up the water, she comes walking towards me for a scratch or a treat. There is something pretty incredible about having a lizard like this, recognise and react to you in this way, and it makes me feel a bit special 🥰

Why drink from still water in a bowl, when you can have it straight out of the bottle?! Miss Rhea, one of the sweetest Tiger Snakes you could ever meet 🥰 #snakes #snake #venomous #venomoussnakes #Tiger #snake #tigersnake #elapid #australiansnake #venom

Excuse the really average video. It’s hard to film with just 1 chubby hand! 4th lot of eggs for the season, and another different species. First time Pygmy mum. Laid 7 eggs. Massive clutch for a Pygmy, especially a first time breeder! 3 slugs but 4 healthy lookers. All placed into the incubator for reliable incubating, and we can now feed the girl so she can gain some weight back. No waiting lists. No EOI.

Who needs a fancy expensive security system, when you have….. ATTACK FROGS!!!

Laszlo and Nadija (points if you guess the name reference!) our new Ackies aka Ridge Tailed Monitors having some turkey mince, for the first time by the look of it! Smells like food, but they were a little unsure at first! These guys are absolutely awesome, and all going well, they will hopefully breed this season 🤞

When you arrive to set up for a display, and you have THIS waiting for you 😱 Thank you to the potentially 2000 people that came out to see us at Swan Settlers Market today. We were absolutely overwhelmed by the response and turnout - and of course, grateful as well. That was definitely a hectic 2 hours! We hope those of you that came down managed to get your school holiday snake cuddles in, and had a great experience. If you missed out, we are incredibly sorry. We did the best we could with the size of the crowd that was there. But, THIS is what we can bring to YOUR next event. Flick us a message, an email, or give us a call, and find out why we are WA’s premier reptile educational experience!

Assisting a death adder with a rough shed, and I noticed something interesting…. Can you see what is going on in this video? And why might it be happening…? Put your answers below!

Spring is springin’, and (bobtail) love is in the air…. This stunning male is chasing down his partner for the season. TAG!

Hey folks, our woodie colony is breeding a LOT more than we are using at the moment. As such, we are going to offer them up for sale. Bring a woodie/ cricket tub, and fill it up for $5. Keep your old containers with the egg cartons, and bring them to us. We are located in Bickley. Pm for address. Cheers!
