Who dug this up from 2012?
Isn't the next big thing Aussie mammals... quolls, numbats, quokkas etc..
 
The next big thing for the Aussie reptile market is pretty obvious.
Its pure locale animals off coarse.
Cheers, Dan
 
yea I do admit that morphs etc. are extremely beautiful but I do much rather wild-types

It definitely should be small native mammals
They have been badly knocked around by habitat loss and ferals
Maybe getting more into the pet trade would promote and help protect them?

Recently saw some almost pure black carpets
Definitely proven
Probably hit market mid next year a long way from anywhere reported before
 
I'm hoping, some of these:)?

Imagine if the next big thing in the hobby was amicability between keepers and a mutual respect for the opinions of others and their right to keep whatever they happen to find desirable. Now that would be something special...
 
Personally I think all the " new " morphs will be very popular ! Like the amazing pied Stimpsons pythons. But in saying that as we get more and more morphs not many people will breed just the classic type animals and in my opinion in 10 years time a nice pure classic snake will be very sought after.
 
I remember having some Chapps about 15 years ago and absolutely loved them!

Do you have them yet IV?
 
I think the next step isn't 'the next breed', I would like to see reptiles become more accessible as pets in urban areas, the demand will go up then.

Its easier to find a good looking/ good natured reptile now than ever before, we need more interesting breeds available in pet shop windows to get more Aussies connected with native animals.

I understand there may be a greater risk of mixing up localities if one escaped, but its better than another cat.

What do you guys think? Should we be changing this part of the law?
 
Would be nice if we in NSW could keep Bilbies, Sugar Gliders and the like. Well - really any endangered marcupial (native) species to ensure their survival.
