Socratic Monologue
I'm a breeder, not a dealer. No, I don't breed that species.

No idea what you're talking about in regards to species availability. You won't get a good idea of availability by going to a Repticon, though, that's for sure. There are many more herp species available than in past decades (but see next paragraph) -- well, captive bred ones that are going to live, anyway. Many of the frog species, many (most?) of the gecko species, many of the less-common turtles that will soon be extinct because of the hobby -- those are all fairly new additions to captivity, and are being bred by people who are far from lazy.

Bearded dragons weren't exported, they were smuggled, as were all the other AU species in the trade.
