Your Most Adored Herp In All of Your Collection (Pic Friendly)

[CoolioTiffany]

Most of us have/had some type of adored animal in our collection at some point or another, or still do. I thought this would be a fun little thread to show off the one animal in your collection that you adore most.

It can be anything, except mammals. Rodents are acceptable, if you have one favorite rodent out of all of your breeders and such. Inverts are included as well!

This is my first Ball python, and the one I love the most out of ANYTHING in my collection. I wouldn't ever dare to trade her for anything, not even a crazy morph. I love this thing to death, and even the though of anything happening to her would make me cry.


I'd love it if many of you would participate in this, I'd like to see pics of your adored herps.

Zeus will always be my special boy, he's just that one special pet in my life,
even though he's just a normal male ball python I wouldn't trade him for the world

This is my Carlisle. He's my eggie's daddy and the sweetest guy alive! I could never, ever get rid of him! He was so teeeeeny weeeeny when I got him I can't believe he's 2 already!



They grow up so fast!! Love that guy!

[CoolioTiffany]

Oh yeah I definitely get what you guys mean. I will always love my girl and wouldn't give her to anyone even if I had to.

It's so crazy to see how fast they grow up, I remember the first day I got my girl too. She fit right in the palm of my hand.

Love the pics guys, keep 'em coming!

Hands down my favorite herp. I'd get rid of every other one just to keep him.

That Cham is just beautiful. Love the coloration and size, I can definitely see why it's your fave, that is just one stunning Cham.

I don't know if 3 counts as a collection, but even including all the other reptiles I've had over the years, this guy takes the cake.

This is Ramses, my first ball python and what I consider to by my first "real" snake. Even if one day, I have enough snakes to convert to tubs, this guy will always have a display in my bedroom. This pic was taken the night I got him btw. He's beefed up a lot since then.



Seems a lot of starting norms are showing up here, huh?

Another great shot of him:


He even got to be part of my improvised pirate costume.

Well this isn't fair haha all my babies r mine haha wouldn't trade them for the world so since I can not pin point just one of "mine" Higgins was my gift to my boy friend lol and well he's our big baby/diva and 11 yr old male iguana haha a rescue owner just couldn't get around well anymore and asked me to please come get him he had never been held or inside until I got him and well pic proof he's a ham.





And a pillow thief yes my pillow of all pillows......and yes he will crawl under the covers with you...not something u really want to wake up to but how can you not love his face

Amazingly enough not a BP (even though they are very important to me) but a Honduran Milksnake because she is the snake that changed my husband views on snakes, she is his now his and he will actually open her tub and pick her up all my himself , and to me making someone go from "I don’t like snake" to claiming one as his is a pretty big deal and that makes her very special.

Deborah, very cool picture! It makes me so mad that I can never get good snake pictures Anyways, my favorite is Dudley, a bearded dragon (even though he's going through a major diva stage right now). He was my first reptile so he hit a very special place in my heart and everyone else in my household. When I got him he was the size of my palm and now he's just a big, lazy ham in a half.

When I First Got Him:
