Mum here we yesterday late afternoon he just started to chomp into a front foot and then he started on his face, so I think he had been bitten on the foot and transfered it to the face, I'm going to spray out in there area for insects and see if it helps.

Yeeks, poor Ollie.  I would be paranoid about letting them out where you are, particularly about snakes, I´m worried enough over here and definitely couldn´t cope with the big Oz.  Hope the little fellow is well and it wasn´t anything really nasty.

We are paranoid about snakes, but they (monsters) are usually out in their area when we are in our studio's and even then we do a look and see in all the spots. The whole area is gravel and we have always got movement, no water or food lying about and the mesh on the wire is quite small. But we still are watchful, at night we go out to check nothing is in the pen including foxes, that said I think it would take off quick smart with Amy.

Ah,yes . . .  :book1:

I am quite familiar with the native fauna of Australia - and, of course, vulgaris familias plumbus or common variety house plumber.

:read2: They are usually seen carrying defensive weapons such as wrenches and snakes, and therefore are rarely bested by a over-zealous guard dog.  I would not, therefore, recommend that Ms. Amy or Mr. Oliver attempt to take one down without assistance from a rottweilor or Doberman pinscher.  Perhaps Lallen could be pressed into service.
