Hi all,
I have recently aquired my first diamond python hatchling, I am licensed but one of my mums work friends sons has 2 bluetongue lizards which apparently arent being taken care of properly and want to give them to me for free so they go to a good home. I have never met the current owner of the bluetongues or his mum and have not yet seen or know the conditions in which they are being kept in. I really want to help the bluetongues out and make sure they are healthy and taken care of properly but the problem is the current owner does not have a license. as far as I have been told he bought them off of someone that may or may not breed them so i am unsure as to wether they were wild caught or bred in captivity. I need some advice on this because as much as i want to help the little guys out i do not want to lose my license in the process. also being that i do not have any experience with this i thought asking the community here what would be the best course of action to take would be the best first step.
Many thanks in advance.
