New Skin! :)

Heres a pic of my biggest Bearded Dragon, Bubbles... He's coming on 8 months old now, 39cm in length.. He's just finished shedding and is starting to show some very nice colour... I'll get a few pics of Squeak hopefully tomorrow, She's shedding at the moment too, however, she is.. Well.. Not friendly... She's snapped at me a few times in the past week, so for the moment I'm giving her plenty of space...

Hopefully I can get some pics of the snakes later this week too.. The Taipan will be photographed through glass.. No way in hell am I opening up that enclosure without some sort of culinary offering for Snappy..

He's a good looking fellow.

With regards to Squeak, I have the same problem with the girls @ work quite frequently

HAHAHAHA!! Nice one mate!

Yeah, the only person Squeak likes is Bubbles... Bubbles is about twice squeaks size, but you know how girls are.. always looking for a big strong male to look after them..

Very nice beardy.
There is nothing like the look of a snake or lizard that has just shed, everything about them just looks so fresh.

So true... But nothing looks as old and haggard as a lizard or snake the day before a shed! haha poor little fellas.. I usually give my lizards a helping hand when they are shedding... little scratch around the neck and a belly rub to help them out a bit... I've noticed snakes really don't need a hand, and more often than not, really don't want a hand either.. when mine shed they like to be left alone..

:-) one can never understand the female mind, it's a complete and utter mystery.

There's a couple of dirty marks on the blue wall behind Alex, that distract. Use the healing brush or clone tool and a blur to get rid of them. I really like the orientation of this beautiful creature in your second shot.

The dirty marks, are they in the first or second image Baz? the first image, the backdrop is actually just a gradient fill I did in photoshop, the backdrop was fairly cluttered and distracting, so I removed it...

Normally I'd clean up the image more, but its just a quick snapshot..
