Another exciting week at That Little Museum!

So here we have another week has came to a close and it has been rather an exciting week at that for That Little Museum!

We had a delivery of some amazing specimens from a private zoo and they have sent us some dead animals what we can use as wet specimens. 

They also sent us the 5th most deadly scorpion in the world but thankfully he wasn't alive when it arrived with us otherwise we may have needed a trip to A&E.

Some of the specimens included in the parcel where an European Hedgehog, Leopard Tortoise, Rainbow Crab, Owl Pellets, Rattlesnake fangs and a very special snakes skin shed and it's so rare that That Little Museum is the only museum in the world to own something from this breed of snake but we will go into more detail on that next week.

This week was also a big week for an upcoming project that we have going on with Simon Wilson aka Simon The Stuffa as he started work on a massive taxidermy piece for us to have on display. 

We will talk more about this later as we don't want to ruin the surprise. 

Another exciting specimen we received this week was the Curlyhair Tarantula. This species of tarantula is super cute with it's curly hair all over it's body leading to it getting it's name.

We also welcomed a new cabinet to the collection and it is full of wet specimens from a European Hedgehog to a Leopard tortoise. We will be sharing more information on them next week.

The website!!

So it's nearly been a week since we set us ThatLittleMuseum.com and it has already received over 400 views in less than a week! That's absolutely fantastic as it hasn't even been posted on social media yet!

We are wating for all the content to be added to the site before it goes official live across social media as we want it to be the best it possible can be.

This week has been a manic week and we have a feeling next week will be the same too, so don't forget to check back with us over the next few days as we will be writing another blog post.

Bye bye for now
