I have a cabinet that I'm planning on turning into a reptile enclosure (3' long x 2' deep x 2.5' tall), but I can't decide if I should move my corn snake into it or get another reptile.

If I get another reptile, I want to be able to handle it without stressing the little guy out, and of course he needs to be of a suitable size for the enclosure. I would prefer diurnal, so I can see him enjoying his habitat.

I've looked at bearded dragons, but it seems like they need more floor space; ackies need deep substrate and apparently don't always agree with handling; gargoyle geckos seem like a good choice but they're nocturnal. I don't really like leopard geckos, and while anoles are cute, they're too small and can't be handled.

Do you guys have any ideas?
