I still say you buy from a breeder rather than a pet store. I can get a CB baby from a good breeder for $35. I would rather get one from a GREAT breeder for a bit more. Talk to the breeders on here and see if they don't have a CB baby normal, I bet there are some nice ones. Even Captive Born animals can have parisites, I would definitly pay a little extra now for the snake than pay the vet bills later. It is up to you though!As for the setup, I don't see a problem with size,ect... make sure you get a thermostat and a humidity gague. I have never used repti bark, so I can't help you there, but news paper, cell-sorb, and carefresh seen to be the best. I would also recomend a Temp. Gun! go read up on the Temp gun Pro Exotics has for $35. Not the best but should work. Good luck!
