Here is what I know (and it isn't much)......

I think that most of the deppei deppei stock are from a couple of guys who collected on some university permits in the 70's maybe. The fellow over at split rock herps has a unique locality(can't recall but just call him and ask), rio Conches?? something like that. Those animals are quite nice looking and have some scalation anomolies I am told, (four prefrontals?......Call him)

Vivid stock are pretty nice. Just remember to keep them a bit cooler with access to a thermal gradient.

Jani are variable. I got Mark bell stock in the mid 90's very nice looking, no locality data. They are a mix of Kardon's stock and some german breeder's blood line. Shop around. Mine have orange heads and really cool coloration in general. There are also some neat, pale ground color blood lines that are nice looking.

Have fun, I wish that I had space to expand.
