    What should I get next?

    So, growing up with parents who hate all animals but dogs, I didn't get an oppurtunity to have the pets that i wanted. So I spent two years in japan, (after graduating) where dogs cost $1000+(I didn't get one) But now that I'm back in the Land O' the Free, I've started my own lil zoo. I have two cats now, and a BP. Just wondering if anybody could suggest my next pet. I have plenty of room in my Appartment, so space shouldn't be a problem. Keep in my mind, I'm living in California, where they have dumb pet laws. (I'm thinking about driving to Nevada to get a ferret) What do you think?

    It's always nice to experiance everything. Since you've got a python, try some crested geckos. i love those little boogers.

    look into ackie monitors (varanus acanthurus). they're my favorite reptile that available in the pet trade thats less then 400 dollars. they're small, fun to watch, active, and smart little fellows. some of the habits they exibit are amazing. like burrowing .

    (i love this shot, hehe)

    dont let the high price shy you away. these animals are AMAZING.

    Re: What should I get next?

    Hm.. it depends on whether you want another snake or something else; and also, what size you feel comfortable handling. At this point, if i were you, I would get into buying more BPs; I tend to like to mostly specialize in a certain thing, but that is just me.
    I am not a turtle/lizard keeper, so I am kinda biased; you could also set up some fish tanks if you wanted to go non-reptile.

    I have a soft spot in my heart for Ferrets. But I am highly allergic to them. That is why I keep so many reptiles, they are hypoallergenic he he ha ha. If you don't have the allergies than they are awesome pets. Smart as heck and fun to watch.

    Yeah, I'm not sure if I went toswitch over to the lizard world. I think I may stay with snakes. I was thinking about getting a Brazilian Rainbow Boa. But then i looked at a bunch of pictures of Albino BP's and im leaning towards those.
