Doing some serious research for our 2nd Leo, I think I would like to go slightly bigger this time around, Any suggestions on where or who to buy from? Craigslist is a disappointment, having a hard time locally on google, missed the reptile show yesterday with Mothers day weekend. But I will have a Reptile show next weekend, that might turn up some leads..

Working on 2nd outdoors area, along with indoors. I won't be housing together since I'm thinking 4-8 inch Leo, and my guy is currently 2 inches.

Personally, if it was me, I would want a hatchling unless you can find an older tort with a PERFECT shell. Once pyramiding starts, it is hard to slow down or stop in the first two years. I would want a baby baby so I could raise it from the get go.

I've been going back on another hatchling or a bit bigger. If my googling fails me, I'll most likely end up with another baby. Thanks for the links gonna take a look around!!

I see quite a few on Craigslist, but there are also many on kingsnake.com.

Nelson's breeder has 6-month old Leopards available right now. Let me know if you'd like her email address.
