What kind of shingle is Santos, one of the NSW ones?
I've been looking into them and saw how different states produce different colours but i really like the black Santos is.

BTW, did your kids pick that name for him?
If it was you, you're a big kid :)

I only like the all black on Santos. Otherwise I like the orange shingles.

Actually, Santos is quite colourful in the sunlight. He's got vibrant orange spots on his body and lots of white on his belly. I know he's no WA shingle, but he's not all black, either. I'd love a WA shingle but Ian won't send me one. Says I have to take the train over but that thing crashes every other day.

These are bad pics but show his colours. You can see that they aren't taken with the flash because of the shadows. That's just his colours.

I'll have to take the blame for the name, Kris. Well, me and Conor. It had to be Simpsons in keeping with the theme, but nothing too common. There's a couple more names up the sleeve in case of new additions!

I got him from a guy in Wagga Wagga, but I'd say he's an inland SA or Vic or NSW species (maybe around the borders) since he is rather dark (cooler area and all). He's just a generic model, really :lol:

I still like him better, the black stands out nicely. There are guys in WA that will send them to NSW coz i asked about one a few nights ago....just curious to know if that woluld be the only way i could ever get one.
They have em for $75 plus you gotta get the import licence so who knows what the total would be.

Im a simpson nut too and i love santas little helper!
Thanks for the pics showing his colour, i think he has just enough in all the right places :)

Holy Camoli! I see that face in the flash. It's like a clown face. It kinda reminds me of when we saw the panda in Phoebe's xray. :panic:
