as they get oldie i reckon they r very different and childrens dont look like maccies n stimmies wen they young well not much

Stimmies, maccies (-spotteds) and children's are all a little diifferent from each other - head shape, colour, pattern and size. Stimpsons are the smallest, maccies are the biggest. When they're this small and you only see 1 at a time, I have trouble decideing which is which but have no problem knowing what adults are.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Well it's now wednesday, and I bought the 2 snakes home yesterday - I ended up picking a pair of the SE QLD, 1 is an absolute stunner - and has reduced pattern on a really light background, and the other is gorgeous with really great patterning. Can't wait to see them grow up! I'l try and get pics today of my 2!

Congrats Foxy! Your building quite a collection. All snakes or do you have lizards or turtles too?

At the moment I have 5 snakes, marbled geckos, scorpions, spiders a centipede. I would love to get a turtle - I have a large fish tank on the way that my Mum dosn't want anymore; so I might get put a ledge in their and get a turtle. - Eventually when I get my own home I'l definetely get a pond. This year I hope to get a couple of beardies, I love the angle heads and also the crested dragon. At the end of the year, we have to move to a bigger house with either a double/triple garage for all the animals or a house with a huge enclosed shed for the animals. I might pu off getting a few things till then. Though in a few weeks I'm getting my own pair of adult maccies and a pair of brredli as well. I definetely want to be able to have a collection of different herps and not just snakes though. I also want to get some red-eyed frogs as well.

Lol, sounds like you'll have enclosures hanging from chains off the ceilings and mounted all over wall soon! like me!

pm me your addy, ill pass it on to my mate if you like re red-eyes

Cheers Inny:)
