Great pics, thanks for sharing. The Ackies are incredibly bright! Yes I would agree with you that Australia is blessed with a very rich and varied herp fauna. Keep the pics coming please.  _________________ YSBRYDOLI POBL, GWELLA LLEOEDD

They are Western Australian "Sandfire" ackies. They are fairly hard to obtain here, due to WA's policy of exhorbitant duties to prevent their herps from leaving the state. Average price is around the $750au mark. The other problem is that people are selling sandfires which are actually a cross between a sandfire and a red Mt.Isa form, but one look at a good one will show the difference straight away. _________________ www.theherphouse.com & http://alleycatz.curvedspaces.com -our homes away from home! |
