My favorite is L. t. multistrata, which will probably come as no surprise to most of you.

Pros:
- They're variable
- They're BEAUTIFUL
- They're "small", typically staying under 3 feet
- Even heavily news-printed adults are attractive in their own right
- They have a fascinating natural history and are able to survive in some very harsh environments
- The habitats they're found in are a joy to explore
- I live within their natural range and have an affinity for native species

Cons
- Neonates can be difficult to start on domestic mouse pinkies
- Breeders are few and far between
