A devenomized king cobra. I think I'd use it as a home security device. Anyone who would try to break in would definitely be scared off.........chris

well in order would be a breeding pair of tuatura(s),a breeding pair of bog turtles and a dragon not a komodo but a fantasy sci-fi one.

I breed Corns and Balls.
Ball Pythons are real pain in the butt feeders. After they reach a year old, they begin to become picky eaters. This is frustrating when you're trying to get that female up to breeding size in two years.
Corns are just the opposite.......in my experience. I love watching them grab that mouse and coil up on it so fast. That's not sadistic......is it?

Brian

I had 2 balls, they both ate sitting on their eggs. I know, I was lucky. I deal with people anf BP's all teh time.

With your list, I want horn toad lizards that live 20 years on crickets

I would have to say first on my list would be a dog tame rhino iguana,next would be a pr. of Figi islang iguanas.

I have a buddy with a big rhino, hes not bad. Fijis have to be up on most lists. also a tree top lizard in brazil. I for get the name? Very cool, very protected, and very expensive. But this is a fantacy

>>I would have to say first on my list would be a dog tame rhino iguana,next would be a pr. of Figi islang iguanas.

as far as corn snakes.......

a butter
amber
bloodred
sunglow

ball pythons....
the banana clown
a clown
a pastel
albino
and a spider
well and a Spied would be nice(Spied is a pied spider)
im getting a het pied so that wont be far away.

boas
a pastel
and a amel

Fantasy stuff
Then My one and only would be a tame dragon.....maybe a pair....

If we are talking real live now
every phase of corn that I do not have

like.....
anery C
opal
lavender
bloodred with piebaldism

.....the cool stuff that costs over $500 ea, that I will never be able to afford otherwise......

Not counting Hatchlings, this is what I have.........

1.1.2 bearded dragons
8.16.0 corn snakes
1.1.0 jungle corns
1.2.0 California King
1.0.0 Mexican Black king
0.1.0 Blotched king

1.0.0 Sinaloan milk snake
0.1.0 Tri-Hybrid milk snake
1.1.0 Arizona mountain king
0.1.0 Congo African Grey Parrot
0.1.0 German Shepherd (hybrid) dog

I used to have other snakes but now I'm strictly corns!

Right now my wish list includes a striped blood red, I remember someone posting here a couple years ago that had bought a baby striped corn thinking it was a normal run of the mill striped amel, but as it got older, the patterns completely disappeared and they had a completely patternless blood red on their hands. It was the most beautiful snake I had ever seen, I would kill for that animal, so gorgeous. I haven't seen one since and I don't remember who it was that had this one. It was a really fiery red as well, so that's on my number one list of wants!

I also want a lavender, a crimson and a blizzard, but well I think I'm just gonna settle for Frosty for now, sneak a few in later on after the move lol.

I'd love to farm a nice-sized herd of Ornithomimus and use a few Troodontids as my herders.

...and I think to myself, "What a wonderful world."

But are they herps? Do we know? But nice touch

Tom, you need to get rid of about half that stuff in your signature.
It sure is cluttered.
Sorry, just had to throw that in.
Now, Sorry but my fantasies don't include reptiles....unless it is Kate Beckinsale in a pair of snake skin boots.....ONLY...now that's the ticket !!!

But if I was to pick my fantasy herp I would have to say a big beautiful, puppy dog tame Eastern Indigo.
Absolutely beautiful snakes.
Another would be a simple creature. I could actually fufill this fantasy any time I wanted just by going to the local pet store and buying one but there is something about a nice healthy Collard Lizard that I find fascinating.
I just don't have room for one at this time.
Maybe when one of my Bearded Dragons passes I will get a Collard Lizard.
Don't get me wrong, I am not by any means hoping one of my beardies will pass, I just know this is inevitable and a collard lizard may be a nice replacement.
To provide proper room and environment I cant just throw it in a sweater box, in a rack, now can I?
I have three 10 gallon aquariums, one 30 gallon aquarium, one 75 gallon aquarium, one 125 gallon aquarium, three 55 gallon aquariums, four 20 gallon long aquariums, a home made tank that is about the same size as a 30 gallon tall aquarium, one converted bookcase rack that holds six sweater boxes, two adult racks that hold ten sweater boxes each and a hatchling rack that holds thrity six shoe boxes so I am definitely out of room.

WAIT .....I KNOW......My herp fantasy would be a fully equiped, climate controlled, reptile building, including climate controlled brumation and incubation rooms and nice "island" table in the center of the room.
Something at least 50ft x 20ft. If the brumation and incubation rooms are both 10ft x 10ft that would leave 40ft x 20ft which wouldn't be too bad.
Now we're talking....lol

Hey Misty,
got any snake skin boots?...LOL
If I ever hit the lottery and can afford a herp building like that, I will open my own little pet shop and you can be my partner. If I hit the lottery we could do whatever we wanted as far as the pet shop goes and not have to worry about an immediate profit.
I think we would make money soon enough but it wouldn't be a necessity or a worry so we could concentrate on establishing some excellent displays and breeding projects.
So, when I hit the lottery I will give you a call.
Now, that is a true herp fantasy!!!

You should see my room! lol

That's clutter.

You know I'm still kind of new here. I saw others post lists. I thought the names were a little funny so I took it to an extreme. Although my beardies are named. By my wife.

I was going to put my critters on my site somewhere, but way behind of so many thing. Like I have a local carpenter that wants to make me racks, for next to nothing!. I just have to design a few. Guy has a massive wood shop. I thought I have tools. His table saw is digital. Tell it to be 3.385" and it slides to the spot. Even an option to leave the line!

Some day I'll get off my butt, and actually do something with my site.

The fantasy thing was fun to come home to read.

By the way, great group of people in here.

That is nowhere near all of them, but is a good start.

Why would they be illegal?

Because they originated in Colorado, where they are protected, regardless of color morph. There were some "in production," but from what I understand they've been confiscated.
