New to Australia

[Ryanw]

Hi,
I just moved to Australia, still in quarantine, and was wondering what the good sites are for reptile classifieds. In the US we use faunaclassifiems.com, but I don't think any Aussies post on there.
Thanks!

Welcome to Australia bud!
I would either go to the "For Sale" section on this website, or www.reptileclassifieds.com.au.
Another option is asking around for breeders in your area. Where abouts are you located?
Cheers

Thanks so much! I know there are lots of rules on what can and cannot be owned. Are various glauerti legal to own? I've always been interested in them but they are very tough to find in the US.

State by state regulations vary greatly, I'd have a look into the WA Private Licensing for a species list, unfortunately you may find it more limited than other states.

Western Australia is very strict, they don’t allow imports of reptiles from outside!

even if it’s on their keeper species lists it has to have been bred inside WA or brought in when they were allowed

everywhere else is nowhere near as strict, I believe SA allows you to keep everything under an advanced license

Not entirely true. WA prohibits the import of all pythons, but this ban does not extend to other reptiles. I have legally imported death adders and friends have imported ES tigers, St George mulgas and so on.
Apart from the ban on pythons, the other absolute ban is on species not naturally occurring in WA.
The Dept website has a complete listof permitted species. Worth checking out.
