Currently at the GSPCA we have 3 snakes in need of homes.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “At the GSPCA we have Enrique the Common Viper from Spain, Peter the Python and Corina the Corn Snake in need of new homes.”

“From Enrique who is tiny to Peter who is over 3 feet we really want to find these snakes the best home we can.”

“Ideally they need homes with experienced homes or those that have done a lot of homework on their care.”

“They all need specialist vivarium’s and all eat diets that might make those a little squeamish uncomfortable.”

The GSPCA each year are called on to help animals that have travelled great distances.

Earlier this year we helped two snakes that snuck into the luggage of travels back to the Bailiwick one from Mexico and the other from Spain.

This week a Guernsey resident jumped when they saw a common gecko run across their bed that travelled with them from Madeira.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “Every day is different at the GSPCA and this week we were asked to help a lizard that stowed away in a bag from Madeira.”
