Surely someone, somewhere (that's not a kazillion miles away from me) have got just one little baby Rankin for me? They are not a dying breed! The Rankins out there, must still be doing the old rumpy pumpy, surely! Crying or Very sad

Jim,
I tried Dean, but sadly he only got one baby from your female. (temp problems with incubator apparently). So back to square one!

O well mate ,sorry thats no help Crying or Very sad

I was in Norwich last sunday and visited the 2 reptile shops up there
http://norwich-reptiles.co.uk/page1.htm and this one http://www.reptile-crazy.co.uk/
One of them (i cant flippin remember which shop Laughing

had a group of breeding adults on display ,which had a sign on the viv saying 'not for sale breeding stock' maybe worth a phone call ? if not wait until 'Jas' at reptile breeder has some for sale ,ive bought from him before and am very happy with his stock. Wink

Jim, I bet it was Norwich Reptiles. They actually contacted me! saying one for their females is digging. Very Happy

BUT they are not responding to my emails Crying or Very sad

I'm hoping that means no news is good news. I will give them a bit longer, then hound them again.

In the meantime, I will keep looking for one that is more than just a 'twinkle in it's mum's eye' so to speak. In other words, hatched, running around, and closer to being homed.

I assume you are relatively local to me then, if you went to Norwich last week. You are a handy chap to have around Jim, thanks!
