Well the guys at melbourne reptile warehouse have obviously been spending too much time inspecting bee hives and too little time keeping up with the laws. I know heaps of people with womas and a fair few with salties, and I've read the reg books.
Perhaps they meant that they aren't allowed to sell them (that sends some of the pet shops down here nuts ), or they told you that you can't keep them because they can't sell them and they want you to buy something from them, rather than buying a woma from someone else?
dont brag about keeping elapids, there will be new laws next year which means that we can too
No worries, we have...er... blotched blue tongues, little whip snakes, tigers and white lipped snakes. Nyer!!
(Please don't bother listing things you guys have and we don't!)
