Hi,
Has anyone noticed the Western Bluetongues on the herp trader. $3,200 for 3 young adults. Holy S#*@. Boy at that price I hope mine breed this year. I thought they were dear when I paid $250ea from Ultimate in SA. Boy did I get a good buy. Thanks Tim.

They're "Westies", they probably Joined a union, pushed some heavy workplace bargain agreement for better conditions, and won! 
The W.B.U. Western Bluies Union LOL
Hmmm, could be another Larson Special.

I saw that too last night. Bob, is there anything you don't own? Everytime a new or rare-ish species is mentioned, you seem to own some. Lucky man.

A pair sold not long ago for $1850. Heard about that a few days after I turned down a pair for $600. Can you write ******** on here.

Simon,
Heres a pic of mine. They are darker than normal at the moment as I have cooling right down. They look really miserable without heat.

They are on class 2 for 2 reasons. 1) they are not very common 2) They are harder to maintain in captivity then normal Bluetongues. The can get very serious ulcerated sores on their bellies and legs, which quickly lead to death if not treated.
