posting just to plug your classified add is not a good idea  |

£210 sounds very expensive to me, also I wouldn't recommend them unless you are very experianced and have plenty of space, NOT AN IDEAL monitor to keep, active, large and can be aggressive.
Stick to dwarf monitors like ackies etc  _________________

Seems to be the thing to do lately!!
I was going to post up some pics of various animals i have but decided against it as a lot is for sale too. I'm no picture of perfection but if i can hold back then surely others can  _________________ TFA

If it is Mark Jacobs maybe he could tell us which courier he uses as he offered to courier a burm for £7 anywhere! _________________

£7 for a courier methinks not
Yes, now and then a plug gets in for herps for sale I think. But we do have the Classifieds for that. My view is best to keep it either on a pm basis and deffo the Classifieds. Else there is a danger that some may only post when they have something to sell. Which is an abuse of the forum, well thats my view anyway. Especially if it's done in an underhand way!
Of at a tangent I have heard rumour that come next January a bill will be passed that prohibits any commercially sold animal to be transported within a 60km radius without the permission of DEFRA , is this true? Also that the transport and the box or something of the like must be chipped?
But that it is still OK to buy and transport a pet? This may all be a bit muddled but you get the gist. Apparently the bill will be passed before consultation has occured? Anyone know anything about all of this ? _________________ www.rickslivefood.co.uk
