I'm not into the breeding thing, human or lizard!
Besides, you do know how far away Newcastle is to here? Melbourne by plane is quickest
Kris, I'll help you out if you get desperate but I'd have to do some serious remodelling of my house, and give up my dream of having a centralian. I only take on animals if I know I can give them the attention that they require. I feel I can do one more (which at this stage is set aside for a centralian) but being honest with myself two would be compromising the care I could provide for all of them.
In regards to the length of time you're away and when you're going, you could begin to put them into brumation now and they would require minimal care even by a novice for a good 3-4 months. Change water, check lights and timers etc.
You could try contacting Wallflowergirl and/or Mouseinamilkbottle as they both live in Newcastle and may be able to child-mind. I've not seen them around here for a while, but I think that has more to do with some comments made on the forum rather than disinterest in their animals.
Like I say, if you get desperate I'll do what I can.
