What is the purpose of this website?
This site hopes to record all reptile sales held by the various  Herpetological Societies, as its sister site Birdsale.com.au  does in the hobby of Aviculture,  however as reptile sales are a rarity,  due to   Herpetology being still in its infancy compared to Aviculture,  we will  in the meantime, bring together all the best on-line websites for the buying & selling of reptiles.  Other topics of interest are also linked into this site which serves as a launch pad to the best frog and reptile websites on the net.

I'm Clicking on the links to a DIY page but I get Error: THE PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED?
Some of these links are to private webpages which reside on servers with  narrow bandwidths or on servers of dubious reliability, you may find that you need to click refresh a few times or try at various times of the day to get the page to display.

How do I stop those annoying popup advertisements?
In order to keep development costs low, in a few of my web pages,  I opted to use free developed applications from Bravenet, unfortunately one of the side effects of using their free version of the software is that we have to put up with pop-up advertising. If you are using internet explorer you can supress  pop-ups by clicking on  TOOLS at the top of the menu bar, then select POP-UP BLOCKER and then place a tick on TURN ON POP-UP BLOCKER by clicking on it.
 
Where do I obtain the parts for DIY projects?
The cheapest thermostats are those used by the reptile keepers. They are complete units ready to run,  no assembly is required and are priced  between $60 - $80 (AUD) . I bought one from eBay for $60,  it has a dial to set your temperature anywhere up to 40 degrees, which is basically all you need unless you are intending to make hard  boiled egg with it. A probe attached to a long cable  is included to allow you to  pop it into your brooder or incubator to measure the internal temperature.  On the actual box, is a power point where you can plug a heating device on (eg light bulb, infra red lamp , heating mat or heating cable) and the unit is powered from a normal 240V powerpoint.

To find these items on ebay or google use key words THERMOSTAT or THERMASTAT REPTILE
also try REPTILE HEAT MAT or HEAT CABLE.
