Good luck - I have been all over the internet trying to find 2 adult female leos (normal phase) and have had no luck.

I have a couple of beardie girls but I wouldn't give them up for anything, basides one thinks she's a boy so if you had breeding in mind you'd have no chance, LOL

I have been scouring them for a couple of weeks now I missed a FW Cobra by about 15 minutes on friday and it was in the area too im gutted.

For the people that think im nuts the False water cobra looks like a cobra acts like a cobra but does not have the fangs or poison and they are quite freindly if handled enough.

I want a beardie it would have to be female so really it would need to be sub adult so we could know for certain as it would be going in with my male.

I would also like a young common boa I have been looking for a while now but I want a Young one so I can watch it grow.

If you know anybody pm me or text me.

Those are really useful links! Still no normal LGs but have enquired about 2 'misfit' ladie beardies. Think the guy selling a 3 legged 5YO BD for £60 was being optimistic but we'll see what he offers me.

carpetviper
11-05-2007, 10:04
I thought the lizard Lounge had them according to the website and £60 for a wonky beardie is a bit expensive.

Hi there are some beardies in the ad mag at the mo. These are in Barnsley. They come with 30" x 14" x 20" wooden viv, uv strip light, bag of sand and a piece of bark. I don't know what a good price is for one but these are going for £140 each.

Is he the guy with the long hair with the knackered xbox360. I havent found any of them yet mainly because I dont want to pay a lot. I know where there are burmese pythons but you can guarantee I'll buy one for £100.00 hard earned english pounds then someone will come with a rehomer and I dont have the space for one so i'd rather wait and rehome than buy one as soon as I get something off the list I will put a picture on here for you all.

Ps that shop is great

I dont know why your paying when microsoft will d=send somebody out to collect then deliver back in about four days and its all free because the first few should have been recalled so they were made to do it by trading standards. All newer ones have better parts in them.

I dont mind paying for reptile but some people have over inflated prices. I had one guy last week trying to sell me a youn ghost corn for £90 He did not know at the time that I know my reptiles. He thought he was dealing with somebody new to the hobby he was suprised to hear he questions I asked him like about the feeding chart and other things a good breeder would know. I offered him the very fair price of £30 which is fair for a corn snake and he looked like i had slapped him round the face. So I got one from another forum I frequent. I will add it was for my little cousin as they had seen mine and developed a likeing for them even though their mum wasn't too sure but even she likes him now (casper).

Im not sure how much you have seen what I do but I can guarantee 20 minutes after buying the little burm I'd get a call to come and re home/rescue one from someone off the forum or from the rspca. Im not tight or just looking for frebies but I dont want to buy one then not have room for a rescue.
I dont think there will ever be a rescue of a false water cobra so I am obviously waiting till one comes up for sale these are quite rare and tend to get bought very quickly.

Thanks for telling me about the burm though it is a beauty isn't it I love them.

yh burm's are really nice, it was a softie. I did some work placement at sheffield exotics and i only handled the snakes that were laid back cos i didnt want to get myself bitten...There is no way in hell i would touch a retic python i only went to change the water and it went for me.

i think you ought to consider putting in the original post that you want the first three as rescues.

Are these keepers or will you get them well and sell them on ?

I dont mind paying at all but if im going to pay I would prefer it be from a private keeper than a shop. The main thing I want at the moment is a female beardie. I can wait for the others as I have to introduce them to the missus slowly LOL.

Yeah im fully aware they are venomous.
Rear fanged and a bite will not kill you unless you have a bad reaction otherwise just make you ill.

I know I got bitten by my mates on the finger.

Not found any but I have a few looking for me.

I have a pastel boa now
