    Re: Reptile/Critter collections :)

    Love the thamnophis genus. Puget sound and red sided garters for sure being my favorite representation of the genus. Pituphis is another one of my favorite colubrid genuses and when I got to the bottom of the list and read burmese brown mountain tortoise...... well.... I expect the highest of fives! good for you! Fun herp fam.

    Terrapene carolina carolina- Eastern box turtle
    Ceratophrys cranwelli- Pacman frog
    Litorea caerulea- White's tree frog
    3 Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis- Eastern garter

    Python regius- Duh
    Grammostola rosea- Chilean rosehair tarantula

    Thamnophis are by far my favorite genus of snakes. My first reptile was a T. sirtalis (still have him actually, though he's quite geriatric by now) and they are just the most lively, social snakes I've ever worked with. I don't ever see myself not keeping Thamnophis
    3.0 Thamnophis sirtalis,
    1.1 Thamnophis cyrtopsis ocellatus
    0.1 Python regius
    1.0 Litorea caerulea
    0.1 Ceratophrys cranwelli
    0.1 Terrapene carolina
    0.1 Grammostola rosea
    0.1 Hogna carolinensis
    0.0.1 Brachypelma smithi
