Hi All
Hopefully someone will be able to help me with my enquiry.
I was always under the impression that this gecko species was restricted, meaning on a QLD recreational license only 2 x specimens can be kept, any more and you need to upgrade to a commercial license.
Anyway I have phoned the EPA in the past, and received the same information, and have received the same information from other gecko breeders.
However a situation arouse yesterday that makes me think it has either changed or somethings not right. A person I know has been keeping 4 x specimens on a recreational license, which has been ok by the EPA, the guy even phoned the EPA again today, and they stated that they are not restricted and you can keep unlimited numbers on a QLD recreational license. Infact I checked my guidelines and they dont have them listed as a restricted species on the EPA QLD list. They are RARE however in the wild.
Can someone please advise what is correct. I am really starting to pull my hair out over this.
Cheers
Ari
