i expect i can chip in a little dough for a scabies table. not soon.. but eventually =P
C, we don't have any scabies caresheets but i would really like to get some!
i have an idea though. for centipedes i made two pretty nice and in depth care sheets. one for "less moist" and one for "more moist". i think we could do a basic caresheet for each "type" of animal instead of a caresheet for each species. this would eliminate a lot of redundancy and allow us to put a lot more effort into the care sheets we do produce. i am going to make another thread so we don't crap up this one... but i would really like to explore this more _________________

If such a man exists, I say kill him without more ado. He is a traitor to the human race.

Well any caresheets I will be including will be doubled SCABIES/ScorpionForum. I'm trying to keep mine exclsuive but have donated some to TarantulaKing and the VenomList.

Well if we can get a table, shouldnt we keep it to the so.cal natives, scorps, pedes, T's, & Traps ?
And try to have Represenetives of the different sp. on hand and try to talk or have lit. about care and conservation of the species?
Just my thought since we are trying to rep. So.Cal..... _________________ “Look down at me and you see a fool;

thats what I'm talking about I making caresheets on scorpions but only natives. Well I have non-native caresheets as well.

if not ONLY so cal stuff, at least the vast majority.
very cool idea
of course, we need to make sure we have a decent sampling of stuff. and also... we should probably have pictures of the bugs so that people can see details and what not instead of 16 empty cages with trapdoors or centipede burrow holes in them =P _________________

If you are planning on doing this PLEASE call and talk to fish and game first.
In California you have to have all kinds of permits to sell native amphibians/reptiles. Hopefully inverts are fair game, but still it would suck to have a nice big fine for selling some bugs...
i don't *think* warren is talking about selling CA natives at this time and i know i am not
but yes, we definitely need to cover legal bases one we have some offspring to start selling
and in all my scouring of the stupid CA fish & game i have never found anything about collecting or selling inverts. they don't even classify them as animals, from what i can gather _________________

Thats correct just having examples for showing. could split the table and have stuff for sale w/ Frisco
This is also a good place to show support IF we had some shirts to wear (Appx. 2 months to work on this)
Dave, your bro ever come up w/ some designs? _________________ “Look down at me and you see a fool;

I have come to the same conclusion, but as soon as they find people selling them to the general public in an open setting there will be regulations drawn up and possibly even bag limits set.
of course, if they start regulating the captive production as they do i will be a little annoyed. and by little annoyed i mean frothing mad. _________________

There's so much else we could do (if only we didn't have to work our day jobs!) Like, posters would be cool, too. I have a big fold-out one on Corucia I made for the SWHS show.
Hello ALl,
We will discuss this, with more detail at the BBBQ. The more prepared we get there the better.
After all it will be an educational table, I think?????
yes, i think any SCABIES table should be purely educational at this juncture
i would like to establish us as an educational resource rather than animal dealers, for sure!
of course... i do have plans for scabies and CA natives _________________

Hello ALl,
I contacted Ken and gave him my friends number so he can get a table at this coming show.
Perhaps this would be a good chance to invite many of the BATS people, so we can get to know them.
I was thinking that we can also plan on attending shows in Sacramento and set up a scabies table as well as a section to sell something.
Godd Job Frisco, keep us up-dated on the other shows.... _________________ “Look down at me and you see a fool;
