ABSOLUTE, single favorite reptile (you have ever owned)?
You can only choose one.....and preferably an individual, not an entire species.

Blue tree monitor. The fake rainforest in my basement looked great but was too hard to maintain so they had to go.

My absolute favorite was an albino burmese python named Archon. He was my first constrictor. Purchased on a whim back when i was 19.
I cried when i gave him away lol! I was very attached to him but had to rehome him with a breeder once he got to be a large size. I went to a friends house to see his 18 ft long burmese female and was a little intimidated. I realised i wouldnt be able to provide the care and housing mine would need as an adult.
So now im just keeping Ball Pythons :)
I dont have to worry about them getting too big or having to rehome them.

I'm pretty new here but have been keeping snakes for around 12 years. My all-time favorite is a male snow phase corn snake that I bought as a retired breeder 10 years ago and he's still with me today. His name is Fred and anyone who knows me also knows him. Corns aren't the most amazing species, but Fred is just an all-around cool snake. I teach 5th grade and he's been in the schools I've worked in for 5 years teaching both kids and adults about how cool snakes can be.

For me its my 7 year old male common snapper. Had him with me since he was just 19 day old hatchling.

My love of my snakes is entirely dependent on who is eating the best for me ~_~
Right now I love my new lesser, since on my second feeding try he took frozen in almost no time, then gulped them down no questions asked. If only my female fire, Ginger, would get to being like that.
Actually his feeding response may help me find a name for him O_O Awesome
