School incursions: Why take the children on an expensive excursion when I can come to your school and bring the animals to you! Check out my School incursion page and client list for further information.For something totally unique, why not have a Reptile Birthday Party or for something completely different at your next Expo or Trade show why not try Radical Reptiles.
Here are some pics of me with some of my favorite girls, Jenna the Blackheaded Python, Angel, my beautiful SW Carpet and Jaws another SW Carpet Python (the small one).
Check out the youtube video of Radical Reptiles attempting to help Nat from Nova 93.7fm overcome her fear of snakes in my Unusual but Fun Gigs page. Nathan really didnt help at all and i think that poor Nat still has a snake phobia.
Radical Reptiles Education & Training came about from a passion for and a love of all things scaly.
I saw a need within the community to promote responsible pet ownership and truly believe that we can conserve our native fauna through education.
I have some rules when doing my shows and they are as follows:
Do NOT touch the bitey end!!! Humans being humans cant help themselves, reptiles dont like their head being touched.. and may bite if frightened.
Be warned - my bite is worse than theirs!!!
Do not poke or prod the reptiles!! We dont like being poked or prodded so dont do it to my reptiles!!!
Do not pull the reptiles! They break.....
Reptiles do not want us to pick them up and cuddle them, please remember this when you come to one of my shows, I hate having to tell someone off, but if you dont respect my rules or my pets then I will BITE!!
One of the biggest thrills when doing a Radical Reptiles display is when someone says they hate snakes or are terrified of snakes. I make it my mission in life to change this attitude so that we can learn to live in harmony with them. When i manage to help someone overcome their fear my job is done. If i could change one persons mind each day, my job is done.
In my view the only good snake is NOT a dead snake, it is the little Stimsons python who is only 6 months old, the size of a pencil being held by the little girl who was nearly crying in fear when she first saw it.
In my view all snakes are good snakes, be it a Python or a Tiger Snake, they all have a right to be here and without them our world would be overrun with vermin.
With the constant threat of human habitation and ignorance our reptiles are getting the raw end of the deal. Breeding in captivity is one way that we can help conserve our species and guarantee that there are reptiles for our grandchildren and their children to enjoy too.
With the threat of the Cane toad, this has become more urgent.
Please have a look at my photo album to see some of my wonderful pets, mainly pythons but i have just added some pics of my beardies, frogs and geckos too.
Check out my links page for some other cool websites to visit.
Breeding reptiles is extremely hard work and very satisfying because when they do, you know that your animals are happy in their new home.
