Hey everyone!

Hey my name is Scotty and i'm new to this site, I've been into keeping and collecting reptiles for about 8 years now, and just happened to stumble across this site. It looks pretty interesting so i decided to become a member, anyway i can't wait to check it out more and hopefully meet some new herp friends.

Cheers guys :)

Welcome.. glad you decided to become member. What herps do you own?

[marvelfreak]

Hello and welcome! Like Jay ask what kind of reptiles do you keep and can we see pictures? Please!

[stephanbakir]

Welcome to the forums.

[Reptile Scott]

Thanks guys!, i keep everything from small Colubrids and large constrictors to hot's. Currently for front fanged hot's i have 1.0 Crotalus mitchelli pyrrhus, 1.1 Agkistrodon contortrix contortrix, 1.3 Cryptelytrops albolabris and soon to be getting some Cerastes vipera. Also some of my opisthoglyphous snakes i keep are Hydrodynastes gigas and Ahaetulla nasuta. I also have a pair of Ambon island reticulated pythons, a Hydrosaurus weberi (sail finned dragon) and of course some bearded dragons just to name a few. I'll definitely post some pic's for you guys soon, just gotta get a decent camera first.

[stephanbakir]

Hydrodynastes gigas are awesome, I hope to own one soon.
Ambon retics look awesome for locales! where did you get them if you don't mind my asking.
Where in Canada are you? Not many provinces allow some of the above listed animals :P
The Cerastes vipera and other venomous species in particular.
I believe Quebec is the only province where its legal to own hots, and not everywhere in Quebec.

[Aaran]

Welcome ! Pics?

[Lankyrob]

Can you give the common names of those lot? Those of us that aren't yet hot keepers dont recognise the latin names yet!! Cheers :)

Crotalus mitchelli pyrrhus = Southwestern speckled rattlesnake (my fav rattler)
Agkistrodon contortrix contortrix = Copperhead
Cryptelytrops albolabris = White-lipped Pit Viper
Cerastes vipera = Sahara sand viper
Hydrodynastes gigas = False Water Cobra
Ahaetulla nasuta = Green Vine Snake (love these things)
Ambon retic = Locale of Reticulated Python.

I'm actually expecting some hatchling falsies in a month and a half so maybe we can work something out? and i don't usually like giving out my info on the computer but for you i'll make an exception, Ontario and Quebec are the only province's that I'm aware of, as i live in Ontario in a city with currently no animal by laws. I got the retic's as W.C. imports from a reptile store i work at, i was also told that they were the last legal imports from Ambon island. I'll also try and take some pic's for you guys tonight with my cell.

Sorry guys about the Latin names, thanks Stephan! :)

[stephanbakir]

It's nice to find those towns without bylaws :P
My next buy reptile wise is a sunfire het albino, a motley het albino and a purple albino retic. After that we can talk other herps :)
Most of Ontario abides by the 3 meter law.

[Xochiquetzal]

Welcome and yes where are the pics?

[stephanbakir]

He started with the FWCs in another post.

[Rog]

Welcome. That is an impressive list of hots. I'm jello. Would love some, but my kids are still young. Also I'm slow so they would probably get me. Lol

[shaunyboy]

hello and welcome

cheers shaun

[Reptile Scott]

The pic's are coming soon, i'll get some up late today latest, and unfortunately those aren't my FWC's in the other forum, as it's not even my post. But they are my friends, we have known each other for years though, and happened to join this site together. Btw i took a pic of one of the retic's eating a rabbit lastnight, just thought it would make it even that more interesting :)

[stephanbakir]

Between the two of you, do you own both variations of FWC?

[Reptile Scott]

Unfortunately we only have the gray's between the two of us, but i'm sure sooner or later he will get a yellow or two. I think out of any snake on this planet falsies have gotta be his absolute favorite, sort of like you and retic's, well at least i think?

[stephanbakir]

Retics are my fav but falsies come in pretty close. I have a friend whos getting a hypo falsie pretty soon /drool.
He lives in St. Cathrine's but hes moving up to Gatineau in a few weeks.
He owns 2 hoggies, and 1 grey FWC currently.

[Reptile Scott]

Okay guy's so here's some pics finally, sorry about the wait but here they are hope you guys enjoy..

1st image Southern copperhead
2nd Northern copperhead, possibly intergraded with a southern
3'd long nosed asian vine snake (Ahaetulla nasuta)
4th speckled rattlesnake
and 5th is something special from my collection, it's a w.c. Moluccan python (fairly uncommon)

[stephanbakir]

Love those vine snakes :)

[Reptile Scott]

and here's just 2 more

first is of my friends giant female false water cobra and second is one of the baby white lipped pit vipers aka bamboo pit vipers. Sorry about the quality guys its not the best!

[stephanbakir]

Do you breed/sell FWC's?

[Reptile Scott]

Well currently me and my friend are splitting a clutch of eggs, i had the male and he had the female. Anyway they are do in a month and a half i believe and i don't think he's willing to part with any of his baby's but i would be willing to part with my half. I also have a clutch of 19 corn snake eggs begin to pip and hatch today if anyone's interested once there established?

[stephanbakir]

I will be interested.. once i get my retics ^^

[Reptile Scott]

I'll let you know once they hatch and hopefully come out nice and healthy, i'm also gonna try and breed the Ambon island retics the beginning of next year if that interests you at all?

[stephanbakir]

Not really, looking for sunfire het albinos, motley het albinos purple albinos and super tiger albinos atm

[Reptile Scott]

okay, i'm not really into all those mutations as i'm sure you've already guessed :P but anyway one mutation i do have is a super cinnamon ball python, here's a pic for all you ball python lovers!

[stephanbakir]

Thats an awesome BP !

[KrazyKat]

[stephanbakir]

I know someone with cinnies, I can ask. Mykee probably has one, along with a few other canadian breeders on this forum :)

Really?!? I'd really apreciate that, thanks so much Stephan!:)

[stephanbakir]

Send Mykee a msg and ask first, my friend isn't overly nice and Mykee is awesome, prefer the money go to him, or another forum member.
