Hello,
Very well said Roo. The fact is that we do not know what is going on over there and that colonies should be established to ensure the future of these animals in the US. I for one have kept back several C.werneri, C.deremensis, and Rhampholeon for my own Breeding purposes and I suggest others to do the same if they have the ability. Even if tanzania does open up this should be regarded as a wake up call to those breeders who have been putting off certain breeding projects due to the fact that they think that these animals will always be available. I kick myself all the time for not trying harder with B.peramata(and I am sure I am not the only one kicking myself). I used to see 1000s of b.permata come in and I put off purchasing a large group because their frequent availability gave me the impression that they would always be there, and overnight a species that came in by the thousands now does not come in whatsoever. We just got in a large group of brevicaudatus from tanzania and I have held 50 of them back for breeding to insure that we will continue to see these species available in the event of a country shutdown.
Regards,
Nick Mole
