Hiya!

Seen my very first snake since coming to Oz,it was dead though so we had a good look at it,anyone know what type it is?

Also caught Roxy chasing a huntsman? around the patio earlier aswell,one of those mornings! just had the pest control in to spay in & out of the house because of bloody cockies

They look a lot like the ones we get around here, unfortunatley ive seen a few as we live near fruit blocks which is a snakes favourite haunt We've all had to learn to stomp when we walk through long grass, horrible thought really. Snakes i can handle, but SPIDERS :scared:

You should see it in Queensland when they burn the sugar cane stubble, if you saw what creepy crawlies come out of there at high speed you'd never sleep at night.

I've seen some of the fastest moving snakes alive i'm sure, and boy they're angry !!!
