The animals in captivity would have had to be collected with a take from the wild permit so there may be some restritions placed against selling there prodjony (sp)?? Other then that I dont know why they sat that.

At times like these, you get even more annoyed about how O/S keepers can commonly keep and breed them and we're stuck with jack all!

these guys will have to come in to play with in a few years and i think they will be the new amyae, or the most desirable knobby by far.

Nick, I think you'll find that anyone who knows who the breeders are, wont say anything until they get what they want.

Hey Daniel,

I knew who has them before I asked the question LOL Was just sussing out how many people are in the know! But, as you know- knowing who has them and actually getting your hands on some two different scenarios all together.

How's your gecko season going ATM??

Nick

I was recently informed the same by NPWS licencing - who have contacted CALM in WA who say that NO export or even collection permits have been granted for wheeleri...

I would be VERY cautious buying these animals....

u guys are nuts,5000 big ones for a pair,bugger that,sure there lovely,i guess if they sell like that and u breed them u may make ya money back plus some but sheesh,i couldnt spend that kind of dosh,i think its amusing when people can collect animals from the wild on permit,when they say to hopefully introduce them into the hobby like its noble then they want to sell them for ridiculous amounts,money talks and the bs walks,would be nice to establish alot of new species into the pet trade,but yeah,some of the prices,im supprised things like black palmed rock monitors ect arwent established,good luck if u do buy some though,like i said it would be great to see them in a lot of collections
