Wild Caught

[Albert Clark]

Thanks, I had forgotten the legal aspect completely. Good info! $20 is doable but considering the other points...

I figured about potential parasites/diseases but I hear of so many wild caught BPs that I guess I figured they take them to the vet and get them examined and dewormed/bugged/etc. I guess it's not worth the trouble then after all

Nah, you have good points. You are also correct to a degree. But there are so many beautiful cbb (captive born bred) hoggies that are reasonably priced if you shop around. Why start out behind the 8 ball with a wild caught? Born free, live free is my thinking. It eliminates quite a bit of the temptation / aggravation. Haha.
