went down to pilbara reptiles in gloucester as the bloke i know who runs swindon reptile rescue was holding a fundraiser an my nephew wanted to go.
heres a couple of pics with me holding henry the albino burmese
gorgeous snake an im not a massive fan of albinos,but hes a big softie
an one of my nephew ben holding rani the normal burmese.
he wants a royal for xmas so have told him hes got a year to read up an learn about them if hes not lost interest by xmas i will be sorting him a royal an setup.
also got to hold a australian water dragon that was georgous an finally got to hold a boa. he was extremley heavy but stunning.
really want a boa and a burmese when ive got my own place. they are now top of the wish list |

Great snakes and pics - looks like you had a good time.
Yeah, know what you mean about those ads in preloved etc - they're very suspicious. |

this bloke andy's house is amazing over 300 reptiles.
ive organised a swindon reptile keepers meet for the 5th of april.
cost £30 for the hall an im charging £2 entry to cover the cost an the rest is going to the reptile rescue.
hes been doing it for 30 odd years off his own back an raises funds through the fundraisers, shows an organised partys.
he took in my corn snake phoenix an uses her for the shows as she very calm an friendly.
it annoys me when you see so called reptile rescues on RFUK, gumtree, preloved ect advertising for unwanted reptiles.
no serious rescue would ask for unwanted reptiles |

Cool - these rep rescue organisations need all the support they can get, because as the rep pet population grows, the more need there'll be for a safety net.
'Essex Jungle' did some good in publicising Iain Newby's 'DWARF' but would like to see greater publicity for all rep rescue nationally - there is one near me in West Yorks -

All power to serious rep rescues - they're needed, alas. |
