Hello from England! (quite a few pics aswell)
Well, this is my first post, but I've been lurking around here for a while and reading with great interest! 
My name is Des, and I live in Birmingham, England/UK. My gf is on here aswell I think, but also hasn't posted, her name is Sam.
So anyways, just thought I'd introduce myself and our mini reptile collection!
Being a BP forum, I'll introduce Clyde first! He's our first ball/royal python, and we took him off a mate of ours who couldn't get him to eat. He was under 100g's when we got him at 4 months old, and after a couple of weeks in our setup, he started taking F/T mice, and has been eating and growing ever since! He's now just under 200g's, and looking very healthy! His first shed with us was quite messy, and broken, but thanks to what I read on here, we got all the bad shed off no probs. The next one was complete, and he's just last night gone in blue. 
Unfortunaly, I don't have many good pictures of him yet, but rest assured I will get some, but here's what we have.
When we first got him:

Early feeding (think this was his second):

Now he loves it:

We are quite proud that we managed to get him eating and in a healthy state. Whatever the reason, we must be doing it right! Like I say, I'll get some better pics of him so you can see his markings (he's got a heart shape on him which people always notice! )
Next up we have Archie, our Bearded Dragon.

Bit of a nutjob he is, loved his new viv and loves to jump and climb:

Always poses when he see's the camera (old viv):

And finally, we recently adopted a very sick water dragon. She's got a bad case of MBD, a broken arm, and severe snout damage. God only knows what the previous owner was doing with her She wouldn't open her eyes, wouldn't move, and wouldn't eat. However, £120 out of our bank accounts on vets bills has seen her recover dramatically, and although still nowhere near 100%, she's moving, eyes open, just started eating live food and is doing alot better:


So there we go! Bit of a reptile hospital it feels like for us at the minute, but it's so good to get them up and healthy!
I haven't really noticed many people from the UK on here, is there any? This is the best forum I've found so far, full of info, and seems friendly enough!
Sorry for the long post, but thought I'd hit you all with the lot in one go!
