sarah darren and dan are all of your pancakes imported as pete told me all of the pancakes are imported into this country as i was talking to some guy who had captive bred torts!!

Chazza people do breed pancakes but as they are slow producing I think most are kept by breeders and or swopped to other pancakes enthusiasts,

Charlie, I didn't say all Pancakes are imports. I said almost all the ones you see for sale are.
Hopefully in the next few years we will see more UK CB torts, with a few people having male/female pairs.

There are very few pancake breeders in the UK so it would seem they are unavailable .
