Hi All

Thanks so much for your advice in the last few weeks. Sydney is loving his new Viv. My wife and I have had an amazing sight of seeing him shed last week, never thought we would catch him shedding

I have been enjoying him so much that my 5 year old daughter is now handling him and feeding him too. Great to see the kids showing interest.

Just a quick question - in the near future, we are thinking of getting another for my daughter. I have thought, instead of getting a new hatchling, we were thinking of adopting from the RSPCA / or reptile rescue centre, is this a good idea?

Many thanks

Dan

South West Reptile Rescue and Rehab are fantastic too, they have a website and fb page

Ooooh, have a look at North Somerset reptile rescue Facebook, well worth visiting. The lady that runs it is a vet, and all the animals are vet and parasite checked, and quarantined.

Ok thanks, I think my closest one is the rspca in Brighton, will try them first.
They have so many snakes on there website, I was shocked just how many have no home!

Take care
cheers Dan

Thats great you caught him shedding, remember to check tail tip and eye caps are in the shed, not retained.
YES!!!!!, its a great idea to get a rescue snake, so many need a new home.
Since for your daughter, depending how young she is, an older corn may be calmer.
