Kathy,
try the Central Florida Reptile Farm, I believe Giovanni got Indie (bought as a hatchling, now 3 yrs old)from them.
I've heards nothing but good about the Abbots and Central Florida Reptile Farm.
If you visit their web site it seems they have hatchlings, sub adults and adults available.
I'm not sure if it's warm enough for shipping yet though, you might have to wait a month or so.
But I would contact them and let them know exactly what you're looking for.
Past the hatchling stage, but not too big. Maybe around 4"-5", ask them for the smoothest shelled one they have that size!
Even though they need a vet certificate for state to state shipping, the Abbots will provide it, but you'll have to pay for it.
I would still have it vet checked when it arrives.
Others might be able to recommend other breeders/dealers closer to you,where are you located? But as I said, I've only heard good things about the Abbots. Although I have no personal experience with them.
Hope this helps.
Terry.
