Keep up the good work.

If you can run regular expos that work well then you are well placed to challenge the no sale law when you get the opportunity. At the very least you will help develop a ground swell of public opinion which can only help in the long run.

Good stuff slimebo, sounds great. About time QLD had an expo, well done to yourself and others for getting in and organising one. Just don't cancel it. Hopefully I might even be able to make it along on the day. These are great events and need to be supported by all us herpers....

Hey Slimebo, who is the contact you have been dealing with at QPWS. They CANNOT stop you from selling products at the expo, as the commercial or private sale of belongings are not under the juristiction of QPWS, hence you can sell any products you want in a pet shop but only limited or no reptiles if you dont have a license. I deal a lot with QPWS, and they have no juristiction over selling of personal products, only reptiles as long as the reptiles are clearly marked that they are not for ale and at the opposite end to the reptiles, there shouldnt be a problem. I f they did have juristiction over selling of reptile products then you would need a license to sell reptile products in a shop which you certainly dont. Dont know who your dealing wiht at QPWS but I think thye are taking you for a ride.

Just what I have learnt thru my dealings with the legislation and QPWS.

CHeers

Excellent- Thanks. I wouldn't mind bringing some Caramel children's along, as well as some Painted turtles and Irwin's turtles. Are you also not allowed to bring commercial turtle species along, even if they are a colour morph?
