    Display Herp for Shop

    I'm looking for reccomendations for a displayed herp at my shop. I want something preferably that can be handled a little bit. Something that won't simply hide the entire day. I have up to a 75 gallon tank space wise. I can also build a enclosure if necessary.
    I have ball pythons, a black throat monitor and a argentine tegu. I was thinking of the argentine tegu, but fully grown he will be much too large to keep up there permamently.
    Any ideas?

    Bearded dragons are always good for giving onlookers the impression that they know something people don't with their expressions and movements. A shop we go to sometimes has a pretty big window display with a couple adults that wonder and are just cool to look at while basking or watching people as they come inside.

    i would never let any customers(if they arent interested in buying) hold a rainbow boa as they are far to nippy and anyone who gets the chance to sue will lol. bearded dragons are an excellen display herp as everyone wants one. i also put baby russian and hermanns (not together) tortoises on display as they are so cute!

    I would say go for an RTB! They (usually) are calm, and have a beutiful pattern. I have sceen my RTB in his hide one time, and thats because i moved his cage with him in it, to a diffrent room, poor guy was probably really scared.
