Happy World Snake Day! We should appreciate all that snakes do for us like control rodent populations, limit infectious disease, and offer new drugs for human conditions like cardiovascular disease. Thanks snakes!

She picked a hot and humid night to lay eggs! At least I found them. This is her second year picking this rocky area to lay in. Now the waiting begins! Redfoot tortoise named Shelly! 😀

This is a lesser tenrec, originally from Madagascar. Although they look like a hedgehog, they are more closely related to elephants and aardvarks. They love to climb with their amazing grasping feet. I gave my little friend a new piece of cork bark to play in and very quickly he turned into a little demon! Not really! Males produce a secretion in their eyes when they become excited! It’s just a little creepy looking!

Made a nice naturalistic enclosure for one of my young Dominican Red Mountain Boas and all he does is crush the plants and rearrange everything! Glad he’s making himself at home!

This guy thinks he is part mountain goat! Nothing can stop him from getting to his (or my wife’s!) favorite flowers. I don’t think they like the flowers in the same way!😀

As my large snakes get older, I like to start raising up younger snakes to work with. This beautiful Suriname red tailed boa is not quite 1 year old and doing great. Also a yearling hypo Burmese python is really outgoing. These two are awesome in person!
