I Want Another Herp!

[ianedward1]

So I am way too addicted to Herpetology and ever increasing my collection (Damn my professor for starting me on this track). I am trying to decide what to pick next once I get my own single apartment in the next few months. I don't mind snakes but I am not exactly partial to keeping them, except maybe Kenyan Sand Boas. I currently have a Leopard Tortoise and Bearded Dragon, and have kept a rescue Leopard Gecko and Jackson's Chameleon for a while as well. I would love to get a Gila Monster (a grad student I worked with kept them and they seemed really exciting) but they cost too much. So go ahead and throw suggestions!

Blue Tongued Skink
Chinese Water Dragon
A Green Anole Lizard
An Iguana
A Uromastyx Lizard
Crested Gecko

I looked into a Uromastyx before I got my BD. I like them but its so hard to find captive bred because there are so few and sell quick. I do like the idea of getting a Blue Tongue. Water Dragons and Iguanas take up a lot more space with their enclosures so that would be a problem. Geckos and anoles are a bit small for my liking. I'm so picky lol

Could always go for another beardie! XD I want another beardie so bad but have to wait 'till I can afford it >_>

 

[Jaker89]

I looked and looked and looked for another herp to get along with my beardie and oddly enough I ended up getting a leopard gecko. My only issue is they are nocturnal so I never really get to see it do much other than just lay around in its hide. Lol

I get the girls out to explore once in awhile. Merlin would rather be left alone. Abby loves getting out to play.

I'm definitely getting an Bell Albino Enigma Leopard Gecko by the end of the summer...

...and then once I make the big move back West (california2014) I will be getting a Chinese Water Dragon.

I love them both! If I had another room-then I'd get them.

LOL! I wish I could stack tanks. Boog (Allie) wouldn't like another reptile taking all of her 'Love'. I've got four tanks in my room so far. Let's see: I've got a five gallon fish tank with a Kuhlii Loach named Snakey. (Snake-like eel about 3''.), a gerbil named Will (Wilson) living in a 10 gallon fish tank, a colony of crickets living in a 20 gallon tank, and a 45-55 gallon reptile critter tank. And an empty ten gallon tank with no one in it.

That empty ten gallon can house a baby turtle. Painted Turtles and Musk Turtles only get about 6" fully grown so you can keep a baby in there for a few months. I know how the.herp itch is when you want more... Before I had to relocate I had 14 turtles. Lol.
