I got my first bp off of CL, she was in bad shape complete with improper husbandry and tons of scars. I looked at it as more of a rescue situation, she was 600g at 4 years old, now she is a good 1200g. I don't regret getting her off of CL, she is one of my favorites. Also I sell my normal hatchlings on CL and Kijiji, so some bps being sold are CB (like mine). Hope this helps....
