A quality pair of Western blueys for sale, thought I'd bring it to our Aussie members attention if they are in market for some. Worth looking at the pictures anyway.

Not my ad btw. Mods feel free to move this to the classifieds if it doesn't belong in the general forum.

Hahahaha, that's probably why I posted the thread. A little payback after drooling over all these Kei island blueys. :D

Just curious, what do you guys in the eastern states normally pay for a western? In WA they all seem to go for around $200-250 for youngens so these prices don't seem unreasonable at all.

I paid 6 hundred for my pr of wa westerns,young adult pr

125 each for sa western juvies four or 5 years ago,which was quite cheap

Babies of all kinds seem to average 2 to 350 a pop here going off what ive seen anyways,mostly wa and darker sa forms,some of the lesser seen forms might cost a bit more,but dont see them advertised as much

So really there not that different to what we pay in the west. I am quite surprised that they are that cheap considering that there is a shortage of them at times.

There a quite a few on the east coast now and a few guys have been breeding them successfully,which helps,they used yo br a fair bit more expensive,but sa and wa allowed legal collection of wild caughts,which lowered there price
