I'm not entirely surprised and I guess this is why some countries don't allow non native snakes to be kept as pets. I do object to the way the report says corn snakes are worthless. Mine are worth a hell of alot to me. I understand what he is getting at but think it could have been worded betetr.

Nice quarantine procedures being used for a snake that was found in the garden as well.

Lol they have been in that area for many years as far as I know wild and breeding :p suppose these posisnious little corns will strike fear into the communicty of Kent, killing them all and there wildlife.

Hope the newun hasn't got snake fleas lucky guy to have found 2 beauties though.



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3

we were going to make a flux capacitor for the back of the fork truck at work but gave up on the idea because we'd never get it to 88mph
