deciding what to get at hamburg show...suggestions?

HerpGirl Nov 16, 2004 08:56 AM

I am going to the northwestern berks herp show on December 4. I cannot decide what I want to get. The debate is between a pair of bearded dragons(to breed), a savannah monitor, a ball python, or a jungle carpet python. For right now I have an empty 50 gallon tank but I am also building a cage right now so the size isn’t a huge issue. Right now, im swaying towards the beardies or a ball python, then my third choice would be the monitor and lastly the jcp. Thanks for any input and I hope to see some of you there!
Oh, btw, I am not new to keeping herps. I have been for about 5 years and I currently have about 15, the ones in my signature are far from accurate, I haven’t had time to update it tho.
Thanks, icy.

Its not on your list but I would consider a BTS. I had a beardie and have found blueys easier to take care of, calmer, and smarter. I now have 4 blueys.
