As per title Hi!

I was directed here ne' persuaded here by Stuart from a non related forum Very Happy
Here is a quick run down
I used to be into Herpetology in a big way several years ago.
When the kids came along it was really time to move my collection along
as some were a little on the large side and a little too dangerous to have with young inquisitive fingers about the place
So I guess its been about 20 odd years since I had anything to do with reptiles. My lad was "promised" a gift if he got reasonable results in his exams, his choice was a boa constrictor. So I bought him a hatchling about 30 months ago. She is growing & feeding well and is about 6 feet now and a decent girth.

My past experiences are with
Indians ( Burmese) pythons
Retics
Royals
Corns
Rats
Boa's
Salvator monitor
Basilisks (I got a few clutches but no successful hatches)
Agamids
Anolis ( again eggs but no hatches)
I am sure that's not all and I will remember in due course..
As I said its been over 20 years and I am sure things have changed ( hopefully for the better)
I have very much enjoyed reading the posts so i will go back in to lurk mode for a bit and try to remember some of what I have forgotten so I don't look a total plonker.
Oh and thanks in advance Stuart for dropping me in it Very Happy

BTW I have tried to add a sig, and avatar hope it works, if not just enjoy the red x for now.

Hi Stuart
Many thanks for dropping me in it, in advance a per my PM Laughing
I think I have sorted my avatar now? I had to link it rather than take it straight off the 'puter for some reason?

Thanks to you other guys for the welcome!
