seems like everyone touched on just about everything except two things.

my chondro is about a year and a half and is now in a 24" cube cage right now. she seems to love it and roams at night. she fed the day i put her in there but she is kinda a freak. she even eats when completely blue although that has only happend once.

the site david pointed out has a classifed section that is almost entirely GTP. you'll have to up you budget a little to get an older USCB animal. there are some on there right now that are yearlings from bushmaster stock that are around $550. my animal is bushmaster stock and these have been captive for a while so you shouldn't have problems with them.

a note on misting. i mist mine when i think of it. she is on cypress so, from what ive herd, its a little more important to mist to keep small cypress particles from being inhaled. i also curb this by seiving my cypress with a wide mesh to get out some of the dust. i agree with judd in that you should have someone come over and check it when you are gone.
