Back to the topic,hang on to the beast and ask what u want for hets,or wait it out till u start hatching 50/50,but thats alot of mouths to feed,so maybe sell off to a breeder,do an auction off and set a reserve price,if u want money straight away.And as a previous post said,dont go gloating to many people as like he said,the greed factor could have someone pinch it off you.
good luck with it ,i hope u keep it,and put the time into establishing the morph yourself,that would gain you alot more respect and pay off in the long run

I think an open auction is the best way if he doesn't want to be ripped off. I bet dozens of people have already PM'd him offering money. A reserve is a good idea.. Personally I'd keep him myself if I were the owner. I've had EWD's before and they breed like rabbits  Good luck to you mate whatever he decides..

maybe we could call the watery paranormal,i keep and breed eastern and blue phased gippys,definatly breed like flies,very hardy little buggas as well,i love them,so wont be hard to breed your self,personally if i owned it id hang on to it,but yes each to there own,be curious to see what someone would pay for it myself,oh and watch the turtle doesnt munch it,would be an expensive meal for it,goumet watery,with a side serve of then the turtle would have albino genes,haha

| | | | Here i am people
Hello everyone, i must say i had a hard time reading all your posts. Firstly i would like to say , damn Njlocksmith, we go to a reptile expo with a picture of my lizard, 1 guy says "hey that would be worth a fair bit", now look what you've done.
Secondly i would like to add that "this is not for sale" This lizard is not just a rare lizard to me, it is my pet. My pet, not only is this lizard a wonderful looking reptile but as far as reptiles go he also has alot of character. example, you are able to feed him from hand, but if you are me feeding or handling him he coperates. if not he is abit reluctant.
Yes i am interested in breeding him and no i do not intend or expect to make a furtune, or even any real profit out of him at all. And further more, he is young and i don't yet have a female, or the appropriate enclosure. And finally, yes NJlocksmith took he's sweet time getting you a picture, but thats because i was at work and only i had the photo, even though someone else thought googled it..

Good on you addy. You do what you feel is best Don't fall for the "I'll give you a free enclosure for a baby," or "I'll give you a female for the same," type of offer. I'm sure there are many unscrupulous people that will try this. If you do decide to breed (your choice), charge whatever you are happy with Beautiful lizard - I, amongst others - am very jealous.

This guy is offering me a free enclosure., i am trully complimented by the offer, thank you. But considering it comes insackly 10 minutes after chimera cautions me on who to trust, i must ask, why?. i obviously have an enclosure for him, but not one for breeding purposes. I mean, are you made of lizard enclosures? because i am not made of albino water dragons.
If your offer is genuine, i'm sure we can make an arragement, there isn't much that comes free.
