I am currently at work (providing IT Support for Key Workers / Vulnerable Individuals) and things are a bit slow this morning so please, let me know what new additions you have planned for this year and how the lockdown and/or Brexit may impact them:
I had hoped to purchase some new animals from Europe but that doesn't look like it will happen unfortunately. I was hoping to add a Diamond Python and almost pulled the trigger for delivery to the last Hamm Show - thank goodness I didn't. I would also like to add some more Egyptian Tortoises to my existing group and maybe even some Chinese Crocodile Lizards.
More likely is some new additions to my snake collection in the form of an unrelated female Angolan Python and some Sumatran Pythons. I have recently added some Het. Tri Stripe Royal Python females to my ranks and would like to add one or two more to further my own very modest, breeding plans.
I fancy adding some amphibians to my collection but I must admit the thought of having to feed live food again makes me a little hesitant. Crowned Leaf Frogs, Lemur Leaf Frogs and Whites Tree Frogs all interest me.
Now that I have my own reptile room I would also like to indulge my passion for myrmecology and set up a nice Leaf Cutter Ant Colony - I used to grow on multiple colonies for resale when I lived with my parents.
All of the above will depend on how well my own season goes and what happens in terms of lifting lockdown restrictions. So what would you realistically like to add?
