Snake farm visit

Hi guys , today I visited a snake farm.. hisssssss 🐍 . It’s totally safe don’t freak out 🙃

They have quite a number of exotic animals presents but the highlights of this place are the snakes . Let me show you some of the friends i made

Let’s go.. I find moving around with a school bag more practical and easy ..

The ostriches 🪶

The ostrich.. two were very friendly and expected snacks . The third was quite shy .

Ostrich feathers are harvested and used for cleaning or decoration.

Ostrich are large flightless land birds and they have three stomachs!

The Putty nosed monkey 🐒

I couldn’t get their attention as they found a dancing visitor more entertaining 🙄..

I don’t blame them. She had great dance steps 😀.

Porcupines 🦔

If you come across a porcupine do not attack or go close to it . Their quills contain barbs you can’t see with the naked eye. And if you get stabbed with one . Go see a doctor do not remove them yourself .

The one by the corner is the only male porcupine in this prickle (prickle is what you call a group of porcupines). Guess he let the ladies rest 😂..

Antelopes

The Tortoise 🐢

This tortoise is 128 years old born in maiduguri Nigeria .He loves to eat grasses and just rest. He’s living the dream .

Here is mama and papa Tortoise 🐢 🐢 . They welcomed a baby tortoise recently

Papa Tortoise 150years old and Mama Tortoise is 100years old .

The snakes 🐍

Don’t worry , it’s safe . They are placed in concrete , well closed cages with experienced staff around to handle accidents .

For a small fee (1000naira about $2)you can hold and take pictures with a selected group of snakes (they are none poisonous snakes with no fangs). But that can never be me .. haq haq haq…
