I'm new to the forum and I have introduced myself on the Introduction thread, so now it's time to introduce my gang. :) I will get pictures of my new addition (Western Hognose) after I pick him up on the 17th of June.

Cruso - Male bearded dragon, 5 years old

Kiki - Male green iguana, not sure of the age. Before we took him in he was severely neglected and still suffers sometimes now (2 years later) from the damage that was done in his past.

Thank you!
There is an expo coming up on the 17th of this month and there will be a few reputable hognose breeders there so hopefully I will find the perfect one then. :)

Not many pictures yet, but I will definitely be posting more after he has settled in. :)

I've added a couple of new snakes to my little family so why not share some photos? :)

This is our banana California kingsnake. I think it's a male, and I've named him Gilbert. He's about 2ft long and pretty feisty.

Our most recent addition is a spider ball python we named Parker (after Peter Parker), he's a couple years old and close to 3ft. He's very docile and has almost un-noticeable wobble. I love him!

And while he is not new, his background is and I just have to share! Note that I did not make this, a very talented guy in the Oshawa area creates custom rock walls for terrariums and this one cost about $70. I couldn't be happier!

This is the new guy. He was given to me as a Pueblan milk snake but I don't think he is. Any thoughts? I don't know my milk snakes very well yet.

Went to the Canadian Reptile Breeder's Expo this weekend and of course I had to bring some new additions home! I went with one specific purchase in mind which was a female albino hognose but they were all sold. :( So here is what I got instead!
