Posted: 27 Feb 2008 Topic: leather gloves



you can also get kevlar gloves and sleves which are rated as needle proof.

these type of gloves are designed for refuse workers to prevent needle related injurys from clearing rubbish.

a quick google search for "needle resistant gloves" gloves should give you alot of places to get them.

 

i hope this helps

just a quick update,

the eggs hatched in 3 weeks at 27deg C. 14 hatched in total and are all feeding well on a mixture of worms and crickets.

i also had another baby dropped off by a member of the public who rescued it from being eaten by a crow, it is doing well but has a kink in its spine from the attack. it is eating well and seems to be moving around fine.

thanks

Posted: 25 Sep 2008 Topic: is this definetly a smoothie??



ive had this snake for a few months now which was rehomed to me from the rescue, from a rspca collection and im still a bit unsure if this is definetly a smoothie.


it has the right markings on its face for a smoothie, but it its from yorkshire where smoothies apparently dont live.


it is feeding and shedding well, but is still a bit nippy.


thanks


lee
