Small ones are just as deadly as the big ones, even the little baby ones are just as deadly as the adults, it seems to me people from Brisbane and Queenlands seem to get snakes in their houses and backyards alot more then other states. It must be the tropical environment.Queenslands probably the worst state for dangerous creatures.

You disappoint me, thought you'd have introduced yourself, offered it a beer etc, you're usually so hospitable

och ye wee woose, the last one I had in I chased it roon the kitchen for an hour wi a wooden spoon, asking it nicely to go into the pillowcase, it duely obliged and I took it off the the local animal sanctury, I was shitting myself though until they said awe its a wee spotted python and handed it to me lol. They say that if it has distinct markings they are usually non agressive it was a cutie, stuck its bloody tongue out at me lol

The baby brown snakes are just as deadly as adult ones though.

Quick question do most people read up books/internet to see what is about and how to identify them. When we arrived and got dogs booked in with vets asked them what was about in the area (spiders/snakes/ticks) then went and researched them, we have lots of spiders and can tell them by shape now without having to have look too closely if it's dangerous to us/dogs it gets squished if not it's caught and put outside.

I like the Huntsman spiders, very clever chaps - we leave them be.

Just had several mouse spiders, the males with the red heads they are on the look for the females...... they are a bit cranky
