If you want to get them and can afford them it is your choice. But i see you setting yourself up for a big hard fall!

1. why are they selling *potential* breeding age BHP's?
2. Your knowledge base is very limited and so are the skills required to properly care for them.
3. A very expensive lesson when things go wrong. This will probably put you of the joys of Herpetology.
4. Another very important point that will frustrate you! if it occurs?is what (and this is very likely) if they do not breed?

There are many enjoyable and many frustrating things with reptile ownership and honestly you are better starting of with a pair of Murray Darlings or Bredli raising them to breeding age and cutting your teeth so to speak.
The successful mating is only the very beginning of a very long and sometimes tedious and frustrating process. please learn to crawl before you walk, then get up and run like crazy! but do yourself a favour and start with something that will lead to an addiction
