It is with much regret that i must report that Sassy our oldest Corn Snake has passed away on Thursday Morning. This isn't the first time i have lost a snake but it the sadest loss.
We have owned Sassy for around 7-8 years getting her when she was around the 4-5yr old mark and she was our 2nd snake.
In the years we have owned her we have had over 70 hatchlings all of whom have all been healthy and lovely characters just like their mum, she has been present on many a reptile talk at the local playgroups and school holiday play schemes as well as being the first snake my 2 boys handled at the age of 1yr old. Because of her very good natured temperment she was the one snake i had who would get even the very nervous of snakes people to touch and eventually handle.
She was a very muched loved part of the family and will be sorely missed by all who knew her.
The only comfort is knowing that she has gone on to a better place and that her legacy lives on in her offspring.

R.I.P SASSY

Firstly i would like to apoligise for both the blogs i'm putting on today are overdue.

On Sunday 20th we were lucky enough to purchase our latest reptile. It's a Bosc Monitor approximately 8-10ins inc tail and about 1-1.5 yrs old at a guess.

We have named it Boscy from purely not knowing what sex it is so we went with an obvious name that would apply to both sexes.

Boscy is a bit tempermental in the viv but once out calms down a treat so with plenty of handling we should get it calmed down a treat. I will be adding it's pictures to the gallery later today.
