"I shall be able to offer the hatchlings to fellow breeders, because all offspring produced automatically become my property."

How stupid is that? I would call that stealing.

If I was looking after someone else's Roughies and they bred while in my care, dose that make the offspring mine? NO!!

No it's not like that. The offspring become his property under the arrangement he made with the government. This stops him from selling the adults to the highest bidder.

I wonder if any of the breeders he offers the hatchlings to are going to be miraculously able to grow them to full breeding size within a year

Where did they come from. Has any one else heard where original 5 were actually caught as i thought specifics were kept secret or are these captive bred illegals, on a side note wonder if you can get oenpellies internationally aswell

Are roughies on CITES?

 

[Tristan]

oh that makes sense let the rest of the world own them before the state in the country they come from is even allowed to own them.

 

[GSXR_Boy]

Are roughies on CITES?

Pretty sure i read on an American forum they were.

Perth Zoo has sent a number of them to a few zoo's in England.
It was hard enough for wildlife parks here in WA to get some from the Perth Zoo before they exported them...
