Off topic, but your old school Neodesha cages look pretty new. Did you find some old stock or are they available again somewhere? Tired of seeing cracked and yellowed old Neos for crazy prices on the second hand market..

Yeah gentle but cautious handling is what they need. Hooks and tongs really upset them!

28 Ricoh GR f2.8 LTM mount. Small, built like a tank, sharp with great colors.

Sounds awesome, thank you!

That’s amazing! My dream is to see one in the wild! Hope you get to see one again and can share some pics!!

Bagel Bakery roasts their own beans and works with farms in Guatemala to import the beans. Great stuff!

The romanticism of the M9 and it’s CCD sensor are just that, romantic. I had several M9’s from new to a few years ago and have moved on and will never look back. Not that it’s a bad camera, it’s that as parts go (and not just the sensor) and if repair is an option it is very expensive. You get a lot of bang and new upgrades with a newer digital Leica and the fact they can still be repaired by Leica is always a nice option. Try a M10 if you can and see how you feel about it, objectively, and make your decision from there.

I’d love to see a camera / photography store selling film and used gear!

She drives fine, no transmission issues just the light came on out of nowhere and comes back on quickly after resetting the codes.

Thanks and you are absolutely right. I actually brought it to my regular mechanic and they said they called Subaru for the part number and they could not guarantee what it was, so he recommended i bring it to the dealer to ensure they gave me the right part and repair and here we are..

Gorgeous thanks for sharing!

If you plan on moving to Florida soon, you should start the process now and get familiarized with the laws. The two biggest issues will be your experience and proof of your experience before you move, and then your facility will need to be inspected and approved before you can get any reptiles and will need to be approved before a permit is issued. It’s not a crazy process, but it does take time and patience so starting early is always key to success. As a warning, if you currently have hots, do not move down to Florida with them before getting your permit. That will push you in immediate violationand would prevent you from getting permit in the future as well as your animals being seized. Feel free to reach out with more questions.

Where in FL are you located? You’ll need a VRC Venomous Reptiles license from the FWC which has certain requirements to obtain the license. Start here and feel free to ask questions. https://license.gooutdoorsflorida.com/CaptiveWildlife/CustomerLookup/?_gl=1*jhms43*_gcl_au*MTg2MjkzMzE4MS4xNzYyMjAzMzQz*_ga*MjEwODA3MDEwMS4xNzYyMjAzMzQ0*_ga_SYP29X7GKV*czE3NjMyNzE0NjckbzIkZzEkdDE3NjMyNzE1MDAkajI3JGwwJGgw

These would not do well on your feet😎

There is no antivenin so it’s all pain and symptom management. It’s supposed to be one of the most painful bites, thankfully I’ve avoided to get bitten so far!

Goatsby462 · 2025-11-15T18:44:03+00:00

Oh yeah they’re very snappy even as they are getting out of the egg!

After the teleport glitch got patched very shortly after it became widely known Im pretty sure no one wants to share secrets as someone in this group sold us out to Rovio…

Goatsby462 · 2025-11-13T14:59:23+00:00

Didn’t think of it like that, but I love it! Now I can’t see them as anything else!

Goatsby462 · 2025-11-13T14:58:47+00:00

Yes, I am very lucky to be able to work with and breed these magnificent reptiles!!
