he was extremly tame but was taped just to be safe, he did throw a hissy fit when i first held him an scratched my arm up a bit.
i setup a fb reptiles for sale group then made a reptile meet group found a venue an went from there, if you can get enough interest in your local area its worth doing

Hmmm, I might mention it to my local shop, they're always interested in doing community stuff with reptiles :)

Wow, wish I'd been there, looks great.
Ali G is totally giving the camera a look of "just give me one chance and I'll savage the lot of you for putting this tape around my mouth!" So cute, poor little thing.

Nice to see the adult standing behind the kid holding Bert, obviously keeping an eye on things even with such a tame beast.

I'd do the same, being in Taunton as well! We can always take our snakes (when adult) along to the Monkton Elm handling days as well. I've made the odd new scaled friend there, I did have a flyer about when their next one was, think they're like the first Saturday of each month? Don't quote me on that!

That's some good parenting right there nusnakemum :)

paulie - meeting your lot would be awesome, unfortunately I couldn't vouch for you not being savaged if you met our three. Our version of your Irwin (Ginn) is quite ferocious!
