T. Verrucosus Pictures + African House Snake

I had decided not to get anymore caudates for a while but couldn't turn these two down and for free aswell! The pictures aren't very good and there aren't many cause these guys are to fast for me. With out further a do, here they are- you may notice the first newt has it's mouth open, if anyone knows what this is a sign of please share, he's bene acting normal but I was abit worried about that.

Setting you up for the mood- here's sunny Scotland!


Here they are-











Sorry for the lack of photos.

I thought I'd include while I'm at it the House snake I picked up that day aswell.

They're a small species and this is only a young one so it's pretty small.
So small it resides in a cricket tub for now!










Hope you like them, they've been great so far.

Nice T. Verrs, Ian. I wish I could get some one day.

Thanks Will.

Very awesome Verrucosus Ian! You'll soon find that they become your favorites! I know mine have become the stars of my group of critters!

I hava African house snakes too. Great little animals, I can't wait to breed mine.

Thanks for the comments guys.

They are great I'm very suprised at how uncommon they are though, they stay small and require really basic care and in my opinion look just as good as corns. Strange that they aren't more popular.

I know this is an old post but I agree I use to own many house snakes and pumped out many babies from black african house snakes to striped and dotted. I flooded the market for a bit and then had a hard time selling them. I then donated my collection to the zoo I was currently keeping at and they have had babies and occasionally send some to other zoos as well as program animals. The females are usually wonderful for handling and showing off.
