Just wondering what new projects or animals people are thinking about for this year?

Being that I bought some superb racks I have decided to get back into snakes a little.

I am reducing my venomous collection down a little, concentrating on my albino & red western diamondbacks and my Horned vipers (C.cerastes), oh yeah and my ammodytes.

Also have another group of Gilas coming, this will give me 12 breeding size animals for next season and a few more growing on Very Happy

I also felt the urge to buy some albino blood pythons, always liked them and now that I have space I thought the time was right Laughing

. (thanks CPR Wink

)

May also add a ball morph or two to the collection Laughing

Lizard wise, nothing new planned. Hopefully I will have Pieblad yemens later this year, plus some of my dwarf monitors should start hatching.

So what about you guys? any plans?

My big project will be converting the garage in to a rep house. First though need to store the stuff that's in the garage, so will have a summerhouse in the garden for this. The base for the summerhouse has gone down today. Summerhouse arrives on the 20th April. After that I can clear garage then convert it.

Other projects are breeding the Picassos and the Mellors.

Also building up the newt, frog and millipede collection and getting into salamanders and axolotl's Very Happy

Totally shameless plug here but im working my nuts off to get www.goplaygaming.co.uk off the ground in time for summer.

Basic idea is basically a competitive LAN, you come along, bring some mates, play some games and frag people.

Mucho beer, mucho fun etc.

The front ending isn't the most visually stunning at the moment. You wouldn't know i'm a flash developer! But I suck at art, so that can come after i've got it doing what I want/need to get it going!

Feel free to click on the contact us section and leave me a nice message!

And you know if you're in the North-West and like LANS, bookmark it!

</shameless plug>

Just ordered a nice 'Hobbyist' rack from Pro-racks, which will give me a bit
of room for growth, and allow me to rehouse a few snakes.
I'm really hoping that i get a good fertile clutch from the Rhino in a few weeks, the waiting is killing me Shocked

Seriously considering getting a pair of Boa's, ideally something small-ish
and pale, probably Hoggs, as they fall into my Budget price range Laughing

Also expect a clutch from my white sided black rats, and Blonde trans pecos
With a little luck i may also have a few clutches from my Royals.
Also fancy getting a Dwarf Tiger Retic.

Yep, I'm looking for some hogg island's too. One of my fav boas.

What's the main difference between the 'hobbyist' rack and the normal contico rack? (other than £1000)

Main diff is the build quality i think? not quite as heavy as the old style
but with all the functionality, less £1000.
If i have a Good year !! will get one of the big winracks, which are Fab.
