Geez. I looked at US prices all the time, and I never seen one that low; most I have seen are about $150-230 USD for captive-bred. Were they wild-caught?

sulcata would be great..
Are you crazy? Are you going to be able to house one indoor?
Yeah, they were wild caught. CB babies are about 100 bucks. Florida in general is absolutely ridiculous when it comes to herps. You can buy common leopard geckos for $9 at expos. $2 Red ear sliders, $20 baby bearded dragons. It's crazy. I wish they were more expensive, then there wouldn't be so many that wind up dead or needing homes. I've taken in and placed over 100 homeless malnourished herps.
I don't really like low-priced herptiles anyway; low prices usually is an indication of wild-caught or inbred, or a crappy breeder.
I rarely buy herps so I don't really worry abou it. I just like to go check everything out at the expos.

If only I got your willpower. Good thing I don't live in Ontario either, or I will be broke from all the expos and housing requirements for each of the specimen.
