๐จ๐จ Please read if you have cuddly creatures in outdoor aviaries! ๐จ๐จ
๐๐ฆ Is your avairy "Snake Proof"? ๐ฆ๐
These birds will be counting their lucky stars after last night's encounter. This fella was only a meter away from their aviaries when the family dog alerted the owner!
Often aviaries and enclosures are sold as "Snake Proof", when this is not the case.
This is exactly the reason it is so important to make sure your bird and pet aviaries are snake safe!
This snake could have very easily made his way into the enclosures pictured behind. Snakes are opportunistic feeders so when a meal is presented they don't often pass up the offer!
Snakes will even go as far as bending these wires to gain entry into the enclosures.
As pictures below, a snake had managed to jam himself through the wire to gain entry to the Guinea Pigs inside. Unfortunaly 2 were consumed, but we were able to arrive in time to save the third!
