Buy from a reputable breeder.
I WORK in a petstore and i tell our customers to get their chams elsewhere, honestly. Because my reptile manager doesnt really care about how the chams are taken care of and he tends to just let them dehydrate and sometimes even die in their enclosures because to him its just a business expense.
Ive tried to change this and am now at the point of just keeping my mouth shut and telling people to get chams elsewhere.
But yea, check the classifieds at kingsnake and also check out reptile shows. At the shows here you can get NICE baby veils for like, $30 or less. Panthers and jaxx are more, obviously because theyre jsut not as common out here. But yea, look at shows, look for local breeders etc.
I dont reccomend buying a cham from a petstore, no matter how "nice they seem to be."
Just my $.02
