Default How difficult to PURCHASE a Bateater

How hard is it to find a Bateater (Retic x Burmease) in the UK i know bob clark has them and a few US breeders have them, but do any breeders or anyone in the UK have any knowledge of them?

Pretty much, especially over here, you'd need to have a word with the likes of Bob to see if he's got any.

like said, plenty have tied to breed these, but its no easy feat!

also to the OP, your most probably best of asking bob clark to bring one over for you next time he is here and buy one of him
