It says in QLD its not declared a pest???

I know! And only from June last year?!? What a crock...

as for southerers keeping them on a licience...
They are an abnoctious pest,
although not efficially classified a pest,
an obnoctious pest means non pest but breeding outside its duristriction,(not native to the area)
be it that,,you can keep them without a licence as they are not a licenced reptile be it thay are not native,,
But who would want to introduce them to a area fortunant enough to not have them competing with their native gex
it would be like breeding canetoads in the Kimberleys.

as for what to do with them..

feed them to your snakes, cull them on site or leave them alone

we all have a choice..

They are on the NSW licensing system....

This cute little guy turned up on my doorstep but i was told to euthanise the poor bugger, so i did..
But I hate waste, so my juvy tiger got a treat.

They are on the NSW licensing system....

are they really?
are they catagorised like some lizards (beardies and blueys) on the Qld licencing system where you can keep a certain number (here it 2) of them if you have no licence at all?

if there on the licence system there, is there breeders that can suply them?

 

[James..94]

There on the license. You must have a license to keep any reptile here.

This is why i asked if they can be wild caught here in QLD and sent to NSWers and somehow put into the system?..........and r they allowd to be kept in qld?

Since we're talking about euthing them..... how about a thread on IDing them correctly? I would be confused on the finer points of their ID... any help Geckoman?

To keep them as pets...... pets that like to help out other pets...

The best way to tell them from a Dtella if you cant tell easily is by looking at the claws, the inside toe on Dtellas is missing a claw, AHG have claws on all toes
