    What snakes do you want to own?

    This is a simple thread that there are probably more of but I am going to use it for future prospecting as well. Just post what type of snake is on your "wish list" and post a generalized picture of it. I'm not really expecting anybody will participate but all well. I'll start since I started the thread:

    Normal Ball:
    I shouldn't really need to post a pic of this.

    Brazilian Rainbow Python:

    I love the look of these Boas. The way they shine blue when light hits them. They look remarkable and hope to see and own one at some point.




    Green Tree Boa:

    I heard they are difficult to raise since they are bad temperamental. I like challenges. Plus the way they change colors from a baby to adulthood is pretty cool.




    Thanks,

    RJ

    Your pic is of a Green Tree Python.

    They are in many ways similar to an Emerald Tree Boa.

    As far as what I'd like goes, my list includes several from the Morelia genus (IJ carpet, GTP, maybe bredli, though bredli get a little large for my taste), Woma python, Stimson's python, and the beautiful Brazilian Rainbow Boa. My brother has a few BRBs, and having seen them in person and handled them, they are amazing, even as babies.

    As far as what I'll ever end up getting, well, my GF loves our geckos, but is not terribly enthusiastic about snakes, so it'll probably just be the the Stimson's python, if anything. A guy can dream, right?

    Mountain bikes are for slow people, and reptiles are far better pets than cats & dogs!

    Aside from a handful of BP morphs (Lesser/Butter/Spider/Pinstipe/Woma/Enchi/or combos thereof), I eventually plan to get:

    A pair of Hogg Islands

    A Hognose (I live in IL though, so got a couple hoops to jump first lol)

    An Amazon Tree Boa (Either a really dark garden (jungle?), or a red/orangey one)

    And some sort of blood python, although I still can't decide what sort I want. I really like blacks, reds, and some of the albino-type morphs are just jaw-dropping.

    No photos, my internet hates me right now, everything's loading extra slow -.-
    1.2 Normal BPs (Sekhmet, Tefnut, Vincent*)
    0.1 Coral Albino RTB (Eisheth)
    1.0 RTB (Cassanova*)
    0.3 Nicaraguan RTB (Type 2 Black Eye Anery w/Genetic Stripe. Eevee*, Daeva, A*)
    0.1 Corn (probably corn/rat mix. Trouble)
    1.0 Splendida King snake (Freebi)
    1.0 Leopard Gecko (Little Dude*)
    0.2 Halloween Crested Gecko: (Thing1*, Thing2*)
    1.1 Columbian BCC (Oolong, Pippin. Currently fostering with a friend)
    *Long-term pet sitting, not actually mine

    I realized but couldn't edit it out because I realized after the 10 minute limit. But a Green Tree Python IS what I meant along with a Brazilian Rainbow Boa (not python). Thanks for pointing it out and participating!

    Thanks,

    I want a quality breeding group of Green Tree Pythons. They have been my favorite animal since I was a wee little boy, haha. I want to limit the number of species I care for to a minimum and specialize in the few I choose.
    Specializing in Ball Pythons, New Caledonian Geckos, and African Fat Tails
