Default Reptiles anyone?

I was just browsing through this topic a bit and haven't noticed much in the way of reptiles so I figured I would start a thread where everyone would be able to post any pictures or information on those cold-blooded buddies of ours.

To start it off I currently have 2 snakes and am looking for more.

Link is my 2 year old male Ball Python (Python Regius). Very timid, easy to handle. Doesn't do a whole lot during the day. Hopefully one day I'll be able to find a nice female morph to breed with.


Athena(F)/Spartacus(M) is my 6 month old corn snake (Pantherophis guttatus) het with genes for moonstone (Anerythristic + Lavender). Another that I would like to breed one day but that is going to take some.

I used to have a tortoise called Libby who was such a sweet girl and a Ball Python called Matilda who was very shy.

I had a pair of tortoise and the female laid an egg. I managed to hatch it and the baby was the size of a fifty pence piece.

I had a crested gecko called Errol. She laid eggs regularly in the warmer months (which is how I realised she was female after all - the exotic vet even thought she was male!) Unfortunately she died at only 5 years old.

My boyfriend wants to get a cornsnake! And he loves most reptiles and snakes and things like that.
Hopefully one day he will be able to get one!

I currently do not have any reptiles but I did in the past have a snapping turtle hatchling(Macrochelus temminckii as far as I was aware)who was an absolute sweetheart.Sadly,the turtle did end up passing away of unknown reasons.

However I am working on something that is nearly impossible also known as convincing my dad to let me have a snake!Not entirely sure what species I'd be getting yet,but definitely something on the small side.

I want quite a few reptiles, unsure of what ones though but I know I definitely want a scotts garter snake, maybe some other snakes too as well as lizards - I quite like all geckos so I'm unsure of what one I'd want, maybe not the aggressive ones. Also, I've forgot what they're called, but they're like mini terrapins. I think they're adorable and I'd love some of those.

I love turtles very much but I can only deal with one potential several decades long commitment at a time in terms of pets!

I'd say start with a leopard gecko,they're not too difficult to care for and have relatively simple requirements.Lots of variation with them as well which is always a big bonus!

Yeah, Leopard geckos are nice but they don't do much, and I've heard morphs are prone to problems, If I did get one though I'd want a jungle tremper albino morph, I quite like eclipse ones too. I quite like cresties but they're a bit too small, and I love tokay geckos, I've held one before and it was great, but they're too aggressive. My ultimate favourite are madagascan giant day geckos, but they're really timid and you'd never be able to handle one. I've not really done much research into reptiles, don't really have the time and I quite like my fuzzy rodents more, haha
