Sheila
Our Ball Python, also known as a Royal Python
She is a ball python, and she's eating frozen and thawed rats right now.
Last year Sheila stopped eating for about 4 months, which is normal with snakes, but this year she's eaten all winter!

Leopard Gecko
This is Tiger, our leopard gecko.
He was placed for adoption at Petco after someone returned them because it was too far to drive to get crickets for him.
I guess they didn't know about leopard gecko food, mealworms, or canned crickets (which do really stink).
I'm glad we got Tiger, but it is important to realize how much work reptiles are before you get them.
When we used crickets we had to go to the store a couple of times a week at times - even when we got enough crickets some of them died and we had to go back, or we went to the store and they were out of crickets.
Of course there are other foods that reptiles can eat - just do your homework and know what your options are before you get one!
This is Sully, our male Nosy Be Panther Chameleon

- Your Leopard gecko looks very similar to our (Australia) Oedura marmorata, wonder if there is a relationship?
We also have false chameleons (Chelsonia brunnea) but they are no relation to real chameleons. I don't have any shots of these beasties but I have cool shots of other aussi criters at http://biologicenv.com.au/blog/. Cheers
