I think there's a lot to be said about a pic of a girl holding a reptile. It can send out a really positive message. This girl- shes's quirky. She's brave. She knows what she wants, and she grasps it, and she holds it proudly.

If you are one of these girls, and you held a reptile and looked good doing it, please send me your pics: girlswithreptiles@gmail.com.

This is also the address to which to send any fanmail and/or suggestions. Thanks.

PS WE'RE NOT BIASED HERE. We accept pics of any reptiles- lizards, snakes, skinks, crocs- even amphibians will be welcomed.If you're not sure it's a reptile, it probably is.

Charlotte with large dead snake, African bush.
Every now and again you come across a seriously big lad. You have to approach carefully. You tell your friends but no one believes you. It's a rare treat to get a pic.
On seeing this, Charlotte's sister said, 'OMG, you weren't exaggerating'!

Guys, we've got a special guest post all the way from the USA.
Sam with a large grey snake, possibly a non venomous black mamba crossed with a python.


Rebecca with unamused alligator, Florida.



Hayley with small python, Cape Town.
Tame snake, required no real handling skills.


Rebecca with large iguana, Mexico.
Got into an argument with the iguana's owner when she called him her baby.
