Herping trip at Cameroon Highland

Finally, we made up to Cameroon Highland herping trip ! We waited and planned for a long time and finally..this is the day..!!This is the place where we stay, appearance looks good,but actually it's SUCK! it is only a big room with divider and bath room is out site our room.damn.macam pergi NS je. First day, when i came back from herping at around 3am, i went for bathing. Guess wat?!!the heater turn off!Damn,i was like having my bath with ice water.superb cold.!

Here's it,first night herping. Nothing much we found as we only walk around the labyrinth. we found some frogs,gecko sp, Giant mantis, AFS(Asian Forest Scorpion), and a lot of spiders.

Overall, the first day is quite nice,everything turn out as planned..we slept at around 4 smthing after having supper and we woke up at around 7am at the next day morning..darn tired...!!

Second day morning,we visited tea garden and i took the chance grabbed tons of photo. After that,we went to Bkt Brinchang. somebody called it mossy jungle or watver is it, it is just an awesome jungle which full of a lot sp(species) of moss,plants etc.

Night time approached, time to herping again. This trip was into the fresh jungle! we actually needed to chopped down the trees to gain access. This trip means a lot for us. We got the chance to see how's the habitat for cat eyed gecko( A.felinus), web footed gecko( C.elok), some sp of frogs, a lot of insects especially stick insect and leaf insect. Nonetheless, the cat eyed gecko's habitat is almost similiar as wat i imagined and read. They live at around the place where there are water source.like stream ,water fall etc. they like to lepak at around the leaves ( leaf tat looks like bananas leaf) and drink the water that collected from the rainwater. But sorry, not many pic i am able to take tat time. if not,mesti cool kan can see the habitat for the fellow gecko!



Grasshopper sheding in process


after herping,we went to mamak. The food at mamak were terrible.! Curry, rice,eggs all cold!how to eat??!! That night superb cold but yet, we saw chick wearing as like going clubbing.DAMN! This is the last night we stay here,thus we enjoy some alcohol drinks and chilling there. Super cold night with some alcohol drink=awesome!
cheers!!


Leaf insect on my hand. And guys,do u notice the wound at my forehead. This " art" work,we have to thanks my brother -tansri foong for his good work.


this is it,after hitting the sign board. the sign board is even more injured than me!


haha.im joking anyway.


Day 3, time to leave this awesome place.On the way back, we chill at a tea shop named wat tea valley if i am not mistaken, having our breakfast with nice tea.



This pic i took for like 30-45 minutes to take it. when i was about to take, two bugger come standing around the fence,until i finish the breakfast,they are stil there! Until i give up to take the pic, they leave but at the same time while i was about to snap,come another bugger -__-!

Eventually,it is a indeed a very nice trip and we get the chance to learn a lot of herping tips,Iding few sp of stick insect, found few habitats and so on. and the most important is, we guys have a whale of time there! ;P


catch up with me soon.
peace

Enclosure DIY

Here's another DIY for my python.

I got myself a storage box from ikea at only rm49 each with the lid(2 way opening as in the pic)

77x70cm i think is kinda big enough for my 3ft and 5ft burmese python

So this is how the thing goes,i screwed up one side of the opening at first then for the ventilation,i drilled a few holes at both side of the enclosure.

For the other opening, i am using clip from ikea but unfortunately the clip is not design for this box. I was like, DAMN!IT CANT FIT!the clip is not tight and not stable enough.But thanks god,after a few hours of trial and error, i came out with this simple design.I cut an extra hard plastic and put it with the clip and the effect is just awesome.

This is how i put it. Secure and stable enough for python.

tadaaaa..here is it,the entire storage box.looks cool rite?haha

Last but not least,my dwarf burmese python is in. A nasty fella!

Another nasty bugger,my bumese python.

ANd thats me ;P

Enclosure DIY

Simple frog enclosure DIY.

I get myself a storage box from carrefour, dimension around 1.5ftlongx1ft height. Cost around rm8(currently selling for rm10)


Cut out the screen and that particular piece(cut out one) i divided into another 4 piece to reinforce the new screen. For the screen, i am using only those folio transparent plastic. As i am only keeping frog inside, a thin plastic is kinda useful already. You can always use acrylic for the screen for better security and stability.Two more piece of plastic(light blue) for the mini waterfall.

Initial set up with a mini waterfall beside. But unfortunately the design failed as there some leakage,further more the another disadvantages is the water changing-is kinda hard to fully change the water with the design.

Here's the final set up. I am using aquarium filter black sponge for the substrate. I had dismantled the mini waterfall and replace it with a water bowl. For the screen,i am using rivet at the first stage,but it makes the screen looks bad as it make the plastic nonuniform thus i redo it with glue gun and guess wat, it works well too.. Well, i hope my frog enjoys and likes its new house.


Here's it. My M.Nasute aka Malayan Horned Frog or Leaf Frog. Been keeping for like 4-5 months. Hope that this bugger can grow up healthily and perhaps able to breed them in future.

Aint he's cute??
