Yup. If you are in Cape Town and you bought in Cape Town then you should not need a permit. Permits are only required if you are transporting between some provinces.

Balls ain't native to South Africa so we don't need permits to keep them here:gj:


OOOPS, just noticed you are of the fairer sex, so Bru was not too suitable... my bad

lol thats fine Iron. :P I'm not sure about the permit, but Nico told me I need one.:confused::confused: I'll be sure to go ask him about that! :gj:

And yes he is a boy :D

Once I get him home I'll be all over the pics!!! I'm so exited I can burst!

Thanks for all the interest guys! :carrot:

Steph

:snake:Congrats...Hope you have room for more than one...They're very addictive...I plan on getting another as soon as my finances allow for it.

" Permits required

In terms of Western Cape Nature Conservation Laws, permits are required to transport a reptile or to keep a reptile in captivity in the Western Cape.

# Transport permit (44 (1)(a) of the Ordinance)
# Captivity permit (section 31 of the Ordinance)"

I got this info from the Cape Reptile Club. Suppose I will have to wait. Sigh! :(

Are you sure this is right? These rules appear to be for indigenous species of reptiles, not exotics?

I'm gonna find out about this and will get back to you.....
