Question about WC Ornates

uromagnus Nov 10, 2004 10:49 AM

From what I understand CB hatchlings will not be avail till next summer and I do not want to wait that long.

Have any of you had good success with a WC Ornate yearling?

Be careful...that would not be legal out of Egypt. I would use caution with so called "captive bred" as well. Stick with a well known (not many people have actually hatched uros) breeder like Lindsey Pike or Doug Dix.

I will use a repected breeder for sure!

Just wondering if if anyone has a WC Ornate acquired in this manner and what their experience was with acclimation after shipping and general longer term health and personality of the WC.
