If you are looking for Sharp breeders I highly recommend Ron from Class Reptilia, he has some of the most beautiful classic Sharps. Tracy Barker from VPI, Doug Matusak from Boa Basement, Mike from Basically Boas all produce nice animals as well. There are a few others I know who have been building nice Sharp collections, but I'm not sure if they are breeding yet, so don't feel bad if I left you out of that list, lol.

One other thing I thought of reading your response. Healthy adults may be available, but they might be replacing them with better looking animals. I know myself as someone with a small focused breeding group I could see selling certain animals after they breed if their offspring look better. So you might have a better chance getting a better looking animal by buying a baby. Top Sharps sell around $3k and instead of paying extra for an adult you can get an exceptional baby.

Also, I saw you mentioned adult male co-dom morphs that were huge. Typically smaller males are the better breeders, so there is an excellent example. Those males probably weren't raised to be breeders.
