Oregon & sulcatas

[argus333]

i have a chance to move to oregon coos bay to be exact. a job opening came up there for me and would really like to go as I'm a avid surfer, snowboarder & skateboarder and oregon is a great place to be to do all 3 of these. but how is it for sullys? i have 4 adults and breed red tegus and own rhino iguanas. how are your reptile laws?temps don't look to bad there. 50 to 70s all yr round. just damp i guess.

The laws are easy. Unless you want a locally threatened or endangered animal.

Overcast days typical on the coast and for surfing, you're talking 2' waves with rocks.

Not a great environment for any of your animals.

If you have and the time and money to set them up in a proper habitat given Oregon's conditions (bigger space, proper heat, etc.) I would go for it. Life is too short.

Sorry it took me do long to get this for you. Keep in mind these are “old" and may have been revised to include or remove any particular animal.

looks good to me. looking to get large property 10 acres at least, so greenhouse and heated sheds will be no problem. the summer temps do not look to bad.

@argus333 - on page 17 that paperwork @Cowboy_Ken sent says all tortoises are allowed...

 

[Cowboy_Ken]

Cassie, I think the only issue would be across state lines and then only specific species.
Oops sorry, @cassieopia
