Just nit picking, but you do know right that they don't captive breed thousands of these in Africa? They dig up eggs and gravid females. I'm not crazy about the term "Ranching" for this, I'm thinking it's more like "Hunting". Sure, if you get fresh ones there may not be much difference between the imports and the true captive bred but lets keep the details strait.



"they are a common species that readily breed in captivity (in very high numbers in their place of origin"
