/Why on earth would you want to buy an animal that:

a)Is likely to be infested with parasites,inside and out.
b)Will cost more money because of a)
c)Are KNOWN to be problem eaters.
d)Will never be as passive as a captive born.
e)Would take longer to acclimate in order to breed than it would take to raise a hatchling up.
f)Could potentially carry IBD/etc.into your collection.

...when there are so many captive born and bred out there for sale?/

Best of luck to you
