My little zoo :)

Here is a little bit of info on some of my reptiles. Pictures of breeding pairs may give an idea of how offspring colouration will develop. All of my reptiles live in well furnished vivariums, where I try to match their natural environment as closely as possible and provide abundant hiding areas. I don't keep any of my reptiles in 'RUB' racks, and despite a growing collection I will never do so.

In addition to my reptiles I keep and breed a few insects. Some are feeder insects such as locusts and mealworms (making sure feeder insects are happy and healthy is also important!). In my bio-active set-ups I have a mixture of local and tropical woodlice, springtails (right), earthworms etc. which keep the vivarium clean by feeding on leaf litter and faeces etc. Some insects such as the purple fruit beetle (left picture) are purely for hobby as they are beautiful to watch.
