The most amazing reptile man in the world

I think his real name is Jim but the blog entry title also fits. Our group was so lucky to get into the reptile workshop and we loved every minute of it! This guy had amazing reptiles. He talked about being in New Mexico hunting and capturing these guys. He's been doing this stuff for about 30 years and there were a couple of reptiles that remained in their locked boxes because they were poisonous.
This little guy has a fat tail that easily comes off if caught by a predator. No worries though, he'll just grow a new one!


This is a very poisonous heala monster. Not sure if I spelled it right but he didn't come out to meet us. He had to stay in his box. Jim said he rotates his reptiles when he tours with them so they don't get distressed and die. I was glad to hear that his friends don't spend a lot of time in cramped quarters. Not a pleasant way to live. He also said his wife really likes the reptiles. I picture his home looking a bit like reptile heaven. Whatever that would look like.

Jim claims his wife wanted him to find her a black snack. Maybe it was a Valentine's gift?? ha ha
