    Other herps/snakes on your wishlist?
    We get a BP morph wants thread every once in awhile.

    What about any other species that you want or are planning to obtain (either snakes or any reptiles in general)?

    I'm usually interested in the more unusual species that not everybody has... but I'd still like a basic GTP eventually, when I move into my own house. They're TOO gorgeous. And make for a great photography subject. ;;

    Wish List:

    a normal BP
    a basic, easy going Red Tail type boa
    Tarahumara boas
    Dumeril
    a pretty gopher or bull snake
    I didn't like them at first, at all, but the Sumatran and Borneo Pythons have really grown on me.
    Russian rat snake, or a cribo
    Trans Pecos rat snake
    Corn snake
    (If money/space were no object - a big Burm)

    My wish list has a few ball pythons too, but I'm doing research on other snakes and reptiles. :)

    - Male Banana Pastel BP
    - Mystic Potion BP
    - Mexican Black Kingsnake (Not sure how I'm going to do with the 'musk' thing though)
    - Albino Cornsnake
    - Leopard tortoise

    Re: Other herps/snakes on your wishlist?
    For snakes: pastel sugar ball python, axanthic boa
    Herps in general: bearded dragon and iguana

    I think the bearded dragon is next, and I'm not yet sure if it will be our last since we already have 2 cats, a snake, and are planning on getting a dog.

    ps, not sure how the exclamation mark got attached to my reply. Disregard :)

    Hogg Island Boa, Pacman Frog, SD Retic, Red Blood Python, Chameleon (preferably Jackson's), Crested Gecko, Bearded Dragon and more Leos! I'd also like to own a sulcata tortoise and some kind of monitor or tegu, but that's not in the cards for me anytime soon. As you can see, I've given this some serious thought lol. The next things I'll probably get are a crestie and pacman, as soon as find good breeders!

    I recently ordered a little group of 2015 Hemisphaeriodon. I've wanted to work with these for some time now but whenever one would pop up I was either unprepared or they looked like crap. Really excited and I plan on keeping them communally - at least until they start displaying some sexual dimorphism, then I'll pull extra males.

    Re: Other herps/snakes on your wishlist?
    The next snake I get will most likely be an Amazon Tree Boa. With the rack being completed soon my BPs will be moving into that which means I'll have no critters in my office. I work from home. My wife convinced me to move them out of here because I might freak out a client, but I have to have SOMETHING in here to look at. ATB seems a good choice.

    I would not mind some Kenyan Sand Boas down the road either. Really cool snake.

    Re: Other herps/snakes on your wishlist?
    Honestly, despite their mild venom, I love Asian vine snakes. I got the opportunity to see a pair in person this year after years of admiring them in photographs. Something about the way they move and look really intrigues me. So you'd better believe that the day I find a CB Asian vine snake at a show, I'm going to pounce on that offer!

    Oh, and ground boas, BRB's, African house snakes, and woma pythons are all on my wishlist for the future, too.

    As quiet as its kept, due to the Federal Protection, I would love to have a 2.2 group of San Francisco garters (T.S. TETRATENIA). Also would like to own a 1.1 pair of eastern indigo snakes ( Drymarchon couperi). Unfortunately they are state and federally threatened but can be obtained with proper licensing. :)

    I forgot to mention the Angolan Python.

    Also, no one seems to keep these, but what a kool little snake: the Cereberus rynchops, the dog-faced water snake. Comes with that cute-as-pie Anaconda head, but in a manageable size.

    I already got one of my dream snakes. My little brazilian rainbow boa is pretty cool. I'd like a Mexican Black Kingsnake but I'm nervous about the musking and random biting, aka 'tasting'.

    I really, really want a tortoise but I'm on overload right now. I've got an albino and yellowbelly bp, a brb, a german giant hypo beardie, a dog and two cats!

    As for Bp's, I want a BEL and I really want a pied!

    Jealous!!! I forgot to put them on my list! I have never seen these guys in person, but would love to get my hands on a pair. I have been thinking once I get my Blueys in their new cages I might have to fill their old cages with a pair of the pinks! Can't wait to see some pictures!

    Frosty, beautiful blood!!

    I would add Boelen's Python to the wishlist, but they seem rare as heck. I'm basically looking for some kind of dark-colored python/boa with awesome iridescence.

    I also like saturated jungle carpets with more spotting pattern rather than stripes. This one looks awesome.

    My BP wish list is obscene so I'll focus on other species.

    Argentine black and white tegu

    BCI/BCC - I like BCC colors a lot more, but have some concerns about their size since I'd be caring for it on my own. (I do know not to overfeed, etc.) So I may "settle" for an awesome BCI instead.

    Great thread! Soooo many snakes I want lol.
    I'll leave off the few BP morphs I want and just do other species also.

    Some locality boas: BCLs (would like a breeding pair) and BCI Nicaraguans (morphs, hypo and T+), Also a BCC (probably a suri). Some nice morph BCIs would be great too (lipstick link junglow is top on my wish list)

    Nice bright jungle carpet
    T+ blood python
    Goldeneye blood python
    ultrabreit short tail

    More blue tongue skinks (Northerns, morphs, and IJ)

    A well-mannered male SD retic (lavender albino, sunfire maybe)

    If being *hot* wasn't an issue, I'd LOVE a Gaboon or rhino viper, but as it is, I never see myself owning hots.

    I'm good for snakes, with a normal BP and a snow corn snake. What I'd like to have is a bunch of frog tanks. I kept tree frogs years ago, and I'd like to get more into them. Red eyed tree frogs, in particular. Would also like to have a tank with poison dart frogs.

    Cross the ATB off the list. I put one on hold yesterday at a price I couldn't pass up. Nice little, for now, Halloween phase male. Best part is he isn't too nippy. I was able to take hime out and handle him and he only struck half heartily at my free hand once.

    Xenopeltidae - the Sunbeam may have the most iridescence. May not be the best for handling, however, they musk strongly.
    Someone here keep one. They recently posted about it.

    I'm not sure about the daytime iridescence of the "rainbow python," the Oenpelli, but it shines silver at night. Very protected, however. Not currently available.

    I googled them, and wow that is iridescence right there. O: I like python head shapes though, but these guys are BEAUTIFUL.

    My Dumeril's also has mild iridescence going on that shows up in an odd way in photos. I just took the photo last night.

    https://40.media.tumblr.com/28e3a121...2zso2_1280.jpg

    Boelen's pythons though... also shiny, matte black with the craziest looking iridescence for their color.

    Gorgeous photo!!!

    I didn't know the Dumerils did that. Our local pet store has one...


    As for the Boelen, if I recall correctly, there is an interview on Herp Radio Network (Herp Nation Radio Network??) that mentions them. It was the episode on Repti-Links, and if memory serves, the interviewer breeds them. Might be worth looking up. There is also a Boelen forum that, at a glance at least, seems to be current. (I was very distracted by the Boelen for a few days a couple of months ago.)

    Aside from more ball pythons, I'd really love to get a Russian rat snake! Others I have considered are western hognoses or sand boas.

    Herps in general if I could;
    Chinese water dragon
    Dwarf caimen
    Blue tongue skink

    that being said I think I'd be perfectly happy with just ball pythons and a russian rat snake as far as herps go but who knows! :p
