    What to get next? New tank pickup!

    Hi guys! I just scored this awesome exoterra from goodwill for $10. It's in awesome shape, just needs to be cleaned up.



    I just don't know what to put in it! I already 2 ball pythons and a young brb.

    I really want a Mexican black kingsnake but the musking freaks me out a bit.

    I'm thinking about a crested or leopard gecko but I'm not sure!! I just can't decide.

    Help!

    It's tempting but I don't think that's the best setup for one! My other two are in tubs and it keeps them perfectly.

    Congrats on the sweet deal!

    I'm sure you won't have any problems filling it.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    1.2 Coastal Carpet Pythons

    1.1 Jungle Carpet Pythons

    2.0 Common BI Boas, Punch, 2005; Butch, age?
    0.1 Normal Ball Python, Elvira, 2001
    0.1 Olive (Aussie) Python, Olivia, 2017

    Please excuse the spelling in my posts. Auto-Correct is my worst enema.

    Perhaps a crested gecko? I've never kept them so I'm not sure what dimensions their enclosures need to be, but it might be something you could look into. It looks a little tall, and too short (length wise) for a leopard gecko.

    Good point about the leopard gecko. A Crested is on the table.

    Still can't stop thinking about the black kingsnake. They're just so beautiful.

    If that's what you want, and that enclosure will work, I'd say go for it! Btw, what goodwill are you going to?? Never found anything like that at my local ones!

    Lucky you! Lol. I'll have to start looking more often. Really cool that you found one there!
