Default UK breeders.

This is a follow up to my previous post about Kleinmanni's. I was wondering if anybody knew how I could get hold of a legal egyptian in the UK. I do not intend on purchasing one yet, as I wish to gain alot more knowledge on them, and decide if I am in a position to look after them adequately. However, I would like to enquire into waiting list times, prices etcetera, so would like to know where I could purchase them from

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Rob

Someone will correct me if I'm wrong but as far as I'm aware there' only one breeder in the UK that has a long waiting list.

And who would that be?

What about people importing from Europe. When I say this I mean proper breeders in Europe with all the correct paperwork etcetera.

As they say, patience is a virtue...

I got my pair through a dealer who bought from this one breeder. The dealer has gone out of buisness so I am afraid I can't help. I hope I do not end up with the same sex as I have a one in 3 chance of gaining a pair. They are unrealated which is good

The trouble is as they are so rare if I ever bred them I would keep them. I think other breeders would do the same . Its a pity because thay are nice little things and easy to keep as long as you keep them free of drafts.
