Besides Snakes...what's your favorite Herp?

[kazboots]

I have worked with lot of species and have several on my top list, not a favorite per se but a list of possibilities. I like my beardies, and my frilled dragons, am especially fond of tokays but not many people agree with me on that one. One of the blue tongue skinks in the lab is my buddy but I prefer him over the other two blue tongues. He used to be nasty but after 7 years I think he has come to terms with the fact I am not going anywhere, He still has a go at others sometimes but I can carry him around like a beardie now. The other two skinks are nicer and therefore boring. I want a water monitor but don't have the space for one. I have also heard that komodos have good temperaments but I doubt that will ever happen.
I have taken care of turtles and tortoises before and am not real fond of them, and regardless of where you classify spiders they are still creepy.

I like all crocs and gators and any kind of monitors. Waters are my favorite though

I really want some kind of giant lizard or monitor of some kind, but right now dont have the room for one.

I would have to go with a crested gecko

LOVE monitors... they are so amazing... would love to own a tegu someday. Even though they are pretty tough to care for.

I like insects and arachnids a lot too, but I don't think those are considered herps!

Hey Judy, have you picked up any tortoises yet? I adopted a red foot about 6-7 months ago now. I'd like some more but I need a more permanent outdoor pen, I built a little 3' x 6' cage that I can move around the yard so he has different grazing areas everyday, but I still have to take him in at night. I really like him though he's got personality.

I love them all!
But I am especially fond of frogs and toads.
