Yes I did have one for sale but I already sold it. They are not commonly bred and they usually go for about $600 pair. Lone males are sometimes cheaper like around $200 each if you can find someone who is high males. The main reason being in the wild males are much easier to find than females so there is a highr demand for lone females.
Something worth mentioning is that wild caught triaspis can be very hard to acclimate, they have a reputation for either doing poorly from the start or apparently doing fine and then just all of the sudden dying. This especially applies to specimens from the Chiricauhua Mtns. If you do get any WC triaspis take them to a vet and have them deparisitized immeadiatly, even if they appear to be fine. It is definately worth waiting or spending more money to get captive born ones, which usually do good. Also they are a nervous species and even captive born ones do not seem to like to be held.
My CB male did fine in a sweater box with just a hide, shavings and water dish but I think they would make great display animals as they are diurinal and noctournal and probably like to climb, they have been found climbing in the wild.
