I have gotten a lot of phone calls lately about Uroplatus due to the
article in the new Reptiles. I see a shipment of WC must have come in,
because folks are selling mass quantities of U. phantasticus and
probably other types on kingsnake.com. Bummer for the gex, most folks
are not prepared for Uros, especially WCs lke U. phantasticus. My Day
Gecko article in Reptiles had the same effect, folks saw the article and
were asking me for P. cepediana and other Phelsuma I specifically did
not recommend for beginners in the article. I guess no-one thinks they
are a beginner! ;) I have seen things drastically improve in the reptile
biz over the years, however, some things don't change. Someone is always
willing to sell you a reptile they know you will kill in short time.
Perhaps there is an article I can write about ethics here. There is no
reason for folks to suffer through poor matching of the gex to the
people. There are gex for everyone!
