Hi Barney,

the person who bought my Frilly (member here but up to them to tell) recommended that I use Heights haulage at Wetherill Park. this person also works in the freight industry.

I also know that when I collect from interstate it is Australian Air Express that does it.

sorry, but thats all I have.

Oh, anywhere near Narellan are you?

go to "peters meats" opposite the train station and kick the
manager in the cods for me and say ...

"thats from kris, the butcher who left 5 yrs ago to go to
queensland"

re Inporting

Gday Barn,mate they all have different rules and names and etc this is so they can feel fresh and relevant and differentiate themselves from the other skippy type departments in various states.QLD skips have a movement system and a person that your sending an animal to has to have one and let them worry about it barn.Basically the movements have four color pages,one keep for records and one send to QLD skips for each party,you need export permit from NSW skips and that will cost 20 bucks and is the same for one or multiple animals which makes a beardy an expensive animal.Ive always charged that export tax to the buyer because its not worth the trouble if you dont.Victoria is good theyve changed their name more times than ive had breakfasts,at the moment they are department of sustainability or something,makes them hard to search for,good luck with this lot Mr Rubble.Barny i wont even start on the WA slips which call them selves CALM or something,obviously copyed the man from uncle,they watched the others making money and went overboard.Yeh i cant understand my post either :lol:

Thats a great post Zulu. What you have actually managed to do is perfectly capture the malaise of crap that must go through ones head to move a reptile from Mildura to about 12 kilometres away. Could you imagine what a poor Murray Shortneck goes through each day when deciding what bank to sun itself on!!

re Inporting

Yeh Pete,you got the idea mate its a circus act designed to raise money A prominent bird breeder informed me they have the same class 1 and 2 system etc now and he said it was a money making venture.,if you have the cl2 reps or birds it makes them harder to sell and discourages breeding.
