I know you don't plan on buying right away, but, if you live in So Cal, someone just put their argus up for adoption today for about $1000. He's selling the enclosure with it as well.

It's a full grown adult, not a baby. Although there is a one year old on CL as well, and it's gorgeous!

As far as breeders go, I'm not sure of any reputable argus breeders, but I'm sure someone will chime in soon with one!

No problem. Shows can sometimes be the best place to go, and can sometimes be the worse place to go. So far I've had good experiences, but an acquaintance of mine had a horrible one, I bought a healthy tegu from one group, and she, sadly, got a rather unhealthy one from a different booth. I wish you luck on getting your Argus! From what I've seen and heard, they're pretty good lizards!

There was a guy in SoCal named Shay selling his cbb offspring on Kingsnake in late March last year. If he's still producing them, then the time is coming. He had pictures of each individual hatchie in the classifieds. The price was pretty decent, too. I think 150 or 175. You can see his animals and their huge cage on Youtube. He posts under the name Shayaj. If you have a Youtube acct, maybe you could shoot him a pm and see if he's producing this year.
