Axolotl
I like my axolotl
I keep her in a bottle
And if I’m feeing cross or mad
Or down or hurt or bad
I pull the cork and let her out
With fiery roar and shout
She flashes sparks and bellows loud
And throws her weight about
And when the monster’s scared
my friends made them hide upstairs
I catch the raging, stamping beast…and put her right back there.
Axolotl in a bottle, I really like you such a lotl.

Beardie Update
for those that remember the beardies i got for my birthday last October...
well after the beardies were sexed... Spike turned out to be a girl (snigger) and Draco and Merlin boys...
Merlin sadly passed away, he had a bone disease that could not be treated. Draco had to be given a new home, as he could not be kept with Spike. they had come up to breeding age, and we did not want to breed a brother and sister!
but Spike is still doing well, and has a new friend, Priest, who is suspected female, but it does not matter either way, as Priest is unrelated. (we are planning on breeding them)
Priest is named after a roleplayer friend of mine.. he plays a Dragon type character (dracoscian) called Priest :) ...
1 & 2 ~ Priest
3/4/5 ~ Spike

flutterbies
brought some capatillas home from my mum's house... cuz she didn't want them eating her vegetables!
so i put them in a big plastic jar thing (like those sweetie jars at old sweet shops) and fed them..
they've started turning in to chrysalises... which is cool..
and when i moved the veg on the kitchen table, a butterfly flew out!
i let it out in the sunshine after taking some pics :)

Monty Python
a new snake :)
he's a Burmese Python.. could grow quite big. but it's all good. we know what to expect, so it's not a problem. we've wanted one for ages.
don't like the pic of me... but it gives an indication of his size!
he's currently about 6.5ft. (and i'm about 5'!)
it was supposed to have been female, but it's ok, cuz it means he won't grow quite as big...
i was only disappointed as i wanted to call 'her' Nagini.
(i can't knowingly call a male snake by a female name!)
