anybody wants to comment on why there are so little Jhonstonii chams available (difficult to import, difficult to breed, simply not considered very exotic?)

Also, do you think that there could be a market for them?

Well for one reason that there are not alot on the Market is Uganda has been shut down for exports for quite a while. They have just recently re-opened but the numbers and species are not the same as in past years. One reason that there are not alot of c.b. animals available is they are very specific in their incubation temperatures and require a cold, slow incubation. they tend to have a high mortality rate and the rate goes higher with the higher the temperature the eggs are incubated at.
