I purchased a yearling indian star female from cbreptile.com last May and she is doing wonderful. I am ordering another female today so she has a “habitat mate”. Every time I order from CBreptile.com I have a smooth transaction and their customer service is unbeatable. They always respond to my questions quickly, even if I email them late at night I normally get an answer within an hour. This is a great company.
