I had to put a crappy indoor shot in here to even things out. Her sunny picture is nicer than Kev's cloudy photos.

Thanks for the heads-up! ;) They're AMAZING! :love:

Oh, don't worry about this, as she has a "Plan B".

She'll just take a dump in the water from here out to spite you LOL!

All joking aside, that was a great idea.

Nice work and pretty Bredli.

Most likely! :rofl:

Doing morning rounds with the coastal conglomerate in the snake room to kick off a much welcomed extended weekend. Adding cork bark to enclosures and looking critters over before feeding night tonight. Loving the lighter color change on Willard’s nose after his recent shed.

Theeere's the "personality" Mike mentioned. Glad to see she's settled in enough to show her true colors! [emoji14]

Someday I'll get my little Squirm Worm to sit still for some photos. Key word being "someday!" At least you can see her side flaming in these pics, however rough they are.

Someone is very appreciative of the fact that I piled her coco chips higher on the cool side. She turned into quite the burrower when she discovered she could hide in her substrate!

That’s a great looking critter, Toad! I’ll have to get my Bredli fix vicariously through you, Gio, and one or two others. Love em, but I think I need to add pairs to animals here before additional species.

That's what I did with Hognose snakes. I originally got three, lost one to a tumor, but I felt like I learned so much more about them because I had a pair. Not sure why, I guess just looking at it from a "I might breed these" angle it forced, or I should say motivated, me to do more research and learn more than I may have had I only had the one. Not necessarily information that I didn't know already but it made me learn about a different part of their life cycle and through that I ended up learning more about the species in general.

Slightly off topic I know, but I really like the idea of pairs.

Awesome Bredli Toad!
Really putting some size on and it is a Bredli so there's that LOL!

Time for Jewel's 2021 first trip to the deck rail.

She's looking a lot more coastal than she used to look. She's a mix of some kind but the breeder was certain she was at least half coastal.

https://i.imgur.com/hTk4Ipw.jpg

No question she has grown later in life. Its interesting that a different angle with different lighting changes her coloring in photos.
https://i.imgur.com/9KwqsW5.jpg

Big girl! She's close to the size of the old retic.
https://i.imgur.com/NLnat0B.jpg

There is a full house and deck repaint job happening soon. I'll be curious to see how they all look on some freshly painted rails.

Some damn fine head shots I must say.

A rare sight when I went into the snake room this morning. Very very rarely do I find this animal perched on anything taller than her hides or cork bark. Perfect coil dead center of her perches. Sally Jo, “The Rock”, holding down the fort.

THE ROCK!

Funny, I don't see Jewel perch much either.

She's my longest but I'm considering switching her cage with the boa's. He's an active dude and I catch him pushing although not hard certain days.

Continue the madness!

Mother's Day was beautiful here. I had a chance to get both Jewel and Kevin out. My wife was cool with it for a short time.

I posted Kev's pictures on his own thread.

I left one out to post here and a few new ones of Jewel. She's getting that dinosaur head with older age.

The one of Kevin I left out of his solo thread.

I had them on the opposite end of where I usually take the photos. They all still look similar LOL.

Hello Sir,

Jewel is an 8 footer maybe a bit longer now. She has had a bizarre, late life growth spurt and she's still adding weight.

Kevin is more average. He's 4 1/2 to 5 feet. Probably closer to 5. I'm expecting him to really size up this summer.

And for the record, the boa is about 6.5-7 feet.

The Royal id 4.5 feet.

Hi there,

Thanks, its been a great home. New paint, gutters roof and some windows coming this summer.

Madness abounds! Great color on this kid this morning. The color of the light makes him look a bit more yellow-y, haven’t had him in sunlight in a bit to calibrate what he actually looks like in natural light. Of course he turned his head as soon as I took the picture. Cooking down a larger weaned rat here.

Pandora was fired up tonight! She was quite talkative and I was on the receiving end of a lot of chuffing. Otherwise, she was one happy camper.

Carpets are something else. Definitely a decision overdue by about 20yrs for me. They grabbed my attention for a reason right about two decades ago and now that I have 4 I understand loud and clear why.
