Class 1 Dwarf Adder feeding

[redbellybite]

Doesn't always make much sense, rbb... I like our licensing system, don't get me wrong, but if things were to be done properly, I don't think newbies should be able to walk out and buy a perentie or a scrubby either. Having said this, I like the fact that if I want to, I can :lol:

If I had the right setup and plenty of space a perentie would be nice :lol::lol::lol:
but I also know that they are big mother of reps and I should start out with a pygmy first
(am aware of my capabilities)

 

[notechistiger]

brown trees are classed as colubrids arent they? then yes, colubrids can be kept on a rec licence because they are rear-fanged?

Yes, they are. I was assuming redbelly meant any venomous snakes, however. Not just elapids.

 

[redbellybite]

Yes, they are. I was assuming redbelly meant any venomous snakes, however. Not just elapids.

I was only talking about elapids ...as a class 2 lic ....you got me confused now notechistiger:lol:

 

[phac]

All of which are very hard to get a hold of, well I've found anyway..

People say that all the time, but i see a fair few class 1 elapids for sale on all the sites.

I think the real problem is that people say they really want them, but dont want to pay what the sellers are asking for them. Strange.

Gee, and I thought this thread was about DeVis??? not Qld's lic rules

Yes phac, thats the story with plenty of things, people go gaga over pictures on the net, always saying "put my name down ect" without asking the price first... I have had plenty of people seriously keen on these things, but I plan on holding most of them back for myself to get some good stock, very few people have done much with this species.

G'day guys,

As much as it pains me to admit it - Redbellybite is right. The legislation, like any government legislation, has so many loop holes, contradictions and just plain confusing crap in it. The legislation that Lee is quoting does specify most of the "dangerous" species of elapids, but in another section of legislation, there is a blanket ban on all elapids on a recreational permit. I had to chase this up last year for somebody who wanted Whips.

 

[JasonL]

Here you go Ryan, what do you think of this little nutter.... they are crazy angry little things.

What legislation is it in? I have quoted the part of the code of practice i was refering to. Is following the code of practice a legal requirement?

Dangerous or venomous snakes may only be kept by experienced people who have been issued with the relevant authority to keep restricted species.

If this is correct it would also apply to colubrids such as tree snakes.

:lol:

but in another section of legislation, there is a blanket ban on all elapids on a recreational permit.

Do you remember where this is in the legislation? I'd like to read it.

Cheers,
Lee

PS: Sorry again JasonL :lol:

Okay, I concede, I was wrong it seems. For those interested, the relevant information can be found on page 80 of the Nature Conservation (Wildlife Management) Regulation 2006.
