Hi Everyone, Hope your all
doing well with your little reptile friends. Just to let you know we are
currently working on expanding the site to include our other reptiles including
the Gargoyles, Bearded and the Frilled dragons :)
Also I'm tasked with the job
of improving our online store which is a huge job but there are so many products
no yet listed so there will be lots of new stuff to spoil your little friends
with!

Second hatchling is out and was
found on the 28th July but another flame/harly morph but they may turn
out to be full on harlequin's given that the parents are harly's too.
Well you would assume so but these guys should develop more colouring as
they grow up. I also tried to
weigh them but my scales are not very accurate as they barely register
as 0.1g. Give them a few months and as they grow and shed we should get
some accurate weights. I'm hoping to keep track of these and plot
them over time which should be interesting.
Sorry for the low quality pic's but
having camera problems! have seen a nice lighting box in Maplin's to
think I'll take a trip down there this weekend :) |
Haray! our latest eggs from
Lou and Ozzy are hatching. If you have followed the site you will know that we
are going to track the progress of some Cresties from newly laid eggs. The first
was discovered late on the 26th July 2010 and one other is due any day now.
 |
 |
| First
Crestie out after 98 days!! Eggs were left at 22-25C give or take on a
shelf and no incubator was used. When I found him he was moist and
recovering so he was left for a further 8 hours before moving into a
basic plastic setup. If you do this you run the risk of the Crestie
moving the other eggs but in this case I left him. |
Newly hatched
Crested geckos are surprisingly fast and jumpy so be warned! I don't
like to handle them much after hatching but he seemed happy and jumped
straight into those plants and rested for several hours. |
 |
 |
| I
returned late in the evening about 10pm to see him heading over to the
water bowl. Gave me another chance to check him over and no problems
were found. |
This is basically
one of our starter kits with a few more plants in it. I always have a
clean setup on standby when eggs are about to hatch. |

Hello everyone! Hope
your all enjoying the sunshine :) Our cresties are doing great and our
recent eggs from Lou and Ozzy are coming along nicely. Been doing quite
a bit of reading and catching up with the Practical Reptile Keeping
magazine. I haven't mentioned it before so consider it mentioned and
recommended! If you love your cresties check out this months magazine as
its got a great article on floppy tail syndrome which you should take a
look at. Also it mentions a lot about genetics and the dangers of
captive bread animals inheriting genetic problems that would not
normally happen in the wild due to natural selection.
An interesting read and
hopefully we will be able to stock it here soon.

We had a fun day out in Portsmouth at
their annual breeders fair. Great selection of Cresties and
and strong turn out for leopard geckos and high quality Pythons. I loved
the Piebald Pythons but sadly a little out of our budget, maybe next
year! A well organised event and well worth a visit next year :) |

Sticky feet Reptiles support Summer Hill
Veterinary Centre at their open day to raise money for stray's. In fact they
help almost any animal who no longer has someone to look after them!
The event was a success and the reptile corner
generated some great interest.
Keep up the good work guys!!
