[holleratme64]

[ErikPaterson]

'Orange Hair Guy' You'll need to be more specific with your comments..

[celt67]

I had a 8 foot Boa Constrictor. I never got him/her sexed... so I didn't know if it was a boy or girl...so I called it Boa Derek.

[hudson334]

[ErikPaterson]

Common Boa

[Rapesquad]

The redtail at 0:50 looks so beautiful.One of my favourites.

[dusty2223]

brilliant snakes Easy, ,i was over at 'SERF'

site and couldnt register ,,whats a no spam question ,?? i left blank it refused the reg,... so i typed in SERF ,,no again help me out big guy

[ErikPaterson]

it's been so logn since i signed upo for that forum i don;t remember but i'll ask the admin when he's on for you mate

i think the answer was like corn snake or something

[bullsnakegal]

kingsnakes are often have mood swings lol so be ready for that if u decide to get one.

[ErikPaterson]

to be honest i've never held a king that didn't wriggle itself half to death, musk wildly and then bite me... lol

[bullsnakegal]

my kingsnake has only eaten once since i've gotten it because it is so determined to shoo me away. I pick it up it musks and flails around. Good starters are the famous corn snake and ball python. Depends on what u want out of your snake really.

[herpfreakuk]

not sure id want a snake bigger than a red tail boa

[ErikPaterson]

aye, i think i'll stick to Colubrids for now haha

[herpfreakuk]

i may get snake soon if i do then im gonna go for a king snake, but snakes arnt my thing really

[mininova2k8]

hey coool vid just a quick question when iguanas get that big what do the eat for a day to day meal

[ErikPaterson]

well, iguanas are vegetarian by nature so, a shed load of veggies, i'll leave Jen or Andy to respond in full though

cheers

[JenAndy09]

They eat a misture of fruit, veg and leafy greens only difference is the bigger they get the more they eat, can be costly if you dont have a good supplier lol

[smetlogik]

awesome looking snakes and iguana. that boa was checking you out big time, i was waiting for the face strike. lol. what do you guys feed the big boas?

[ErikPaterson]

haha when i look at the footage i can see that too, but couldn;t really see it on the day haha.

i'll leave jen & andy to respond on that but i reckon rabbits or really big rats

[JenAndy09]

Boas are on Large rats

[Grazzeh]

Erik that iguana is gorgeous! brilliant example

[Herper666]

damn andy is tall. hes nerly a tallas you and you 8 foot 6!

[Herper666]

fancy not wanting to hold a boa! lol

[Th3R1ngRul3r]

What kind of snake was that that you were holding? It is so beautiful!!!

[ErikPaterson]

that was a big female Common Boa, very beautiful but heavy and surprisingly strong

[TheSnakeGuy1]

love it!

[jka101]

Nice video, Python natalensis? or Python sebae?

[ErikPaterson]

i they have both but i think it was only sebae sebae that was featured.

[jka101]

If you can try to get two head shots of the two species next to each other.

cheers

[JenAndy09]

All shown on the video are Sebae Sabae, though we do have an adult female Natalensis and a cross as well.

[TrustyBucket]

Very cool video, Mr Paterson. I've been considering getting a Afrock for a while now... Found a really pretty red tail at a store I go to as well. I hate it when I see pretty snakes for sale. Lol.

[ErikPaterson]

oh definately, gorgeous snakes.

but the afrocks are just schitzo!! mad!

the boas are real nice too but solid, completely solid, definately not my kinda snake haha

[fishnreptiles]

That boa and igg are lovely examples-Great vid!

[ErikPaterson]

That big boa is SOLID.

The way in which it wrapped round my arm & moved, i was getting chinese burns!!

Then when it decided that my thumb went backwards, crikey, nothing you could to to stop it really, impressive snake for sure!
