Antaresialady, Yep, I have heard from other sites that there is a few people trying to revive a herp group again for W.A and full credit to you for doing so. Oof you dont need to be experienced to enjoy reptiles both in the field and in captivity. If we were all experts there would be nothing to learn and life would be boring as hell. (KEEP THE FAITH).
My previous gripe about experts is relating to the pet shop industrie. Im sick of reading horror stories. I have been into a pet shop once and seen a wild caught adult V.tristis (Black headed monitor) in a wooden box 2 foot x 2 foot walking around and around in circles trying to get out. That was the first and last time I visited a pet shop for reptiles.I have one dealer I deal with for all my cat 5 requirements. This guy has been around long before the new keeping system was introduced and the experts surfaced.
Ladies and Gents good luck with WASAH round 2 and stay focused on what you want to achieve.
Happy Herpin.
