blimey... where do you start!!!!
this is our current stock list, it might give you some things to google for.. TSKA - Rainbow Market Management -- Exotic Species Consultancy Services bigger than a rabbit.. umm... hedgies and gliders might not interest you then... what about things like gambain pouched rats? a lot depends on budget and available space too... i delivered a stunning baby kinkajou to her new home yesterday, she is awesome, hand reared after rejection by the parents, she was sat on her new owners shoulder eating a pear within hours of him taking her on!! not all kinks are that nice, but you can get them.. going up in budget, there is a corking pair of aboreal anteaters for sale at the moment, pics on the site from when we went to meet them the other week, they are really a specialised animal, but this pair have the bonus of being totally hand tame and handleable we did have a gorgeous armadillo on too, a 6 banded, he is being looked at by a client at the moment, but as of yet, no money has changed hands, so he is still available.. he is a cracker too, and another one that would be here if only i had the money!! the prices you see on the site, are set, in the main, by our clients, we manage sales on behalf of private owners, who are charged a fee by us yes, which covers us acting as "agents" on their behalf as to find suitable homes for the exotics. for some species we vet heavily, for instance only 2 in every 10 applications for primates we get, are ever passed as being "suitable" homes. we do get accused of being over priced, but most of the time, this is sour grapes from bitter quarters lol, some people seem unable to cope with the idea that we do not set the price, the owner of the animal does, we then advertise what they ask us to!! this is why, for instance, you will see sugar gliders at several different prices on the lists, one client asks more than the others.. their choice, not ours have you kept anything before, is there anything you have in mind specifically? what sort of animals do you like? rodents? marsupials? carnivores? personally, from our lists right now.. personally i would have, if i could, the Dillo, the bush baby, the Genet (my GOD is that beautiful - i met it at the weekend) the Tamandua - tho the diet is extreme... and after this weekends time with one.. i would have the young hand reared kink too.. christ she was stunning! thinking about it, we have just had tenrecs come back on the lists, now they are pretty pukka too  we did have coatis on the books until recently, but have withdrawn them at the moment for various reasons which i am not going into on here! all i will say, is be careful if you do get into talks with someone selling a load.. we trying to source tapir for another client at the moment actually, you can keep them, but they are bloody hard to come by.. there is a quad of Mara available at the moment tho.. not quite the same i know.. hth, get in contact with myself or Rory (TSKA Rory Matier on here) if you want to chat more Nerys

the dwa does not take into account the animals rarity or endangered status
(tbh most of us are not sure what exactly it does cover.. when animals which CAN be a danger to the public like Racoons, are taken off..) this is the link for animals on the list http://www.defra.gov.uk/wildlife-cou...animallist.pdf Tapirs are indeed on the dwa at present according to the above list they are not on the list of 33 animals removed last year, kinks and coatis have been removed however N

nerys i love your site and think that your screening proceedure is excellent.
I'm looking at anything but not really rodents. your dillo does sound good as does the kink ive unfortunatly missed. Budget is unlimited by any means but i wont sacrifice quality of animal for a few pounds. I will keep an eye on your site any advice or suggestions of breeds you can give is so gratefully recieved.

did you see the bush baby??? thats supposed to be hand tame one too, though i have not met that one..
the tamandua are very very neat, and quite rare too... they are owned by a private keeper, who was sold them by another seller (i.e not us). he'd wanted them for years, managed to get a pair, and now due to unforseen circumstances, has to sell, poor guy.. they are flipping wicked i have to say, tho as said the diet is extreme! we could arrange a viewing for dillo if you wanted? its based in buckinghamshire N

yeah i know, you should see the food tho lol, its liquidised into a grim brown gloop which they LOVE...
the dillo, yes, he is kept solitary, they can be very hard to sex actually i will pm you yes, mainly as emerald has a bee in his, or her, bonnet about the prices we charge, and i can't be arsed with him, or her, right now lol. as said, the prices are dictated to us by the people who own the animals, they are not set by us!!!
