I need/want really badly in my life! Haha ok seriously. I'm interested in purchasing some preferably babies or young juveniles. I will need to build their housing still. Which brings up the point of needing to find a breeder so I can get real information. I have read what little I can find ie mampam. The rest I'm not sure what to believe. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

I feel your pain, i've been in contact with a few canadian breeders but I am still looking for any and all information I can get.

My fiancee and I have been learning, preparing and laying plans for hopefully bringing one home in a year and a half or 2. But still any info or direction to look would be awesome.

Hey Antonio, you get moved okay bro? Everyone okay?

I think Gregg does, someone correct me if I'm wrong? Maybe he will see this thread.

I did, thanks for asking. Ackies are breeding (getting locked up/mating) for the last week it seems daily. I turned out having one male 3 females but lost a female so I'm left with a trio. Lost her for unknown reasons after the move. Now I gotta get heat tape to finish my incubator ASAP just not sure which site to order from. Financially ready for Kims project and wanting to get it moving.

I am going to order the new type from reptile basics the next time I make an order. Instead of clamps or soldering you use rivets, looks really clean and easy.

Krusty breeds them.I have his email somewhere....I'll pm you when I find it. However you should know that hatchlings generally have long wait lists, and nobody parts with adults. Someone did have them on fauna a while back if you search kimberly rock, hatchlings for 850.

What kind of info are you after. I keep 2 pairs with eggs in the bator. I can't help with supply as I'm in the UK but can help with husbandry advice.

Barlow, best type substrate. How deep substrate needs to be. Decent sized cage for 2-4. Please not the minimum sized, I want them comfortable not just okay/surviving. Please put HxWxD metric is ok I actually prefer to use it. What is best as heat source, what degree basking spots again Celsius is better. Thanks for the help.
