Metoo Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 So, we are in the process of moving into our new house. Mr Metoo was taking a peek inside the roof space and spotted something interesting. Being brave, he stuck his hand in and came out with a shedded snake skin it looked quite old and was starting to disintegrate so must have been there for a while. Now I am wondering, where is the rest of it ? Is it still alive? Has it grown bigger? Can it get into the house? Oh boy, living in the countryside sure is entertaining lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out there were about five very large pythons living up there and it was mating season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Pom Queen Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 @Metoo did you ever find the snake? @Tootsie I remember that, there were also a couple of other incidents. One snake fell through the roof in a shop and there was another case of a 7m female with lots of other males living in the roof of the local club https://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/national/queensland/mating-snakes-wreck-cairns-club-roof-20110720-1homv.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metoo Posted October 17, 2018 Author Share Posted October 17, 2018 Sorry PQ just seen this. no we haven’t found a live snake as yet but we have found 2 more skins. As it happens, we are having a couple of Whirly birds fitted to our roof this afternoon so I’d better warn the man before he goes up there i have been told that the snakes will be all waking up now so we will be vigilant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetBlast Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Please keep us posted. I'm quite interested to find out of anything happens. My relative in Brisbane is having a fence installed. The chaps doing it came across a brown snake in the bushes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @JetBlast , I don't have any further news about the snakes just yet, but I did find this little fella outside the laundry door when I left for work today. I didn't know what it was but my Ozzie friend tells me it's a legless lizard. Unfortunately, he was already dead so I couldn't save him.
