I am looking to purchase reptiles online. I am looking for someone who properly cares for their animals. Who do you recommend?

Since this is in general herp it might help narrow down recommended breeders if you could say which species interested you?

Ball Pythons, Boas, Bearded Dragons, Whites Tree Frogs, Lizards, etc.
Captive Bred is extremely important to me.

BHB reptiles is a good one, you can get a good look at the facilities by checking out snakebytes on YouTube. They have ball pythons, carpet pythons, colubrids, boas, leopard geckos, and bearded dragons. I got my pinstripe ball python from BHB and he arrives on time and healthy. I think I'm going to be getting my next animal from Tom Crutchfield. The guy is a legend. He mostly deals with hots but he does have a good amount of non venomous snakes and lizards as well. You can also check him out on YouTube.

Look him up on Facebook he runs daily auctions and does buy it now and best offer sales
its important to me to purchase only captive bred reptiles.
Is it true that some reptiles cant be bought as captive bred such as Iguanas and Chinese Water Dragons?

Justin Kobylka Reptiles is also great for buying amazing quality ball pythons :) and Justin is an awesome guy to work with, he's actually a member on the forum. And many other people on the forum are breeders as well and have some amazing animals. [emoji4] I'll try and find them all and see if I can link their websites once I do I'll comment again with the info :)

I don't know about CWD's but you can certainly get captive bred iguanas.

Are you for certain about CB Iguanas. I have had no luck at finding one. Can you lead me in the right direction?

Hope you know what you are getting into with those, they are not beginner animals and sadly most people buy them on an impulse not realizing that their ideal of puppy tame iguanas is unrealistic.

I defiantly know about the impulses of Iguanas. I have yet to own one, but have worked with them in the past. As of right now I am gathering information, and was curious if they are beginning to sprout into the CB scene. I sure do hope more Iguanas do become CB.

BHB Reptiles always has solid animals and reasonable pricing. There are many reputable breeders out there.

Ben Renick gave me excellent customer service and lists shipped prices usually. Listing shipped prices is big for me because it's my preferred way to shop online and I will always favor the seller listing SHIPPED!
