Well guys.. I am a fellow herper, and I have a problem: I am addicted to them. I apologize for the crappy pictures, it's a $15 camera and I am no good with it.
To summary my love for herptiles: Skinks and monitors; boids and large colubrids; native reptiles; Rhac geckos and Tokay geckos; Frilled Dragon and Australian Water Dragon.
Here is my Nicaraguan boa, Percival; he is my first reptile and he is deliberate, calm, curious and never hissed ONCE, even during sheds. I will be getting a female Nicaraguan, with similar personality, from Henry Piourn very soon. I got him as an adult, and he have been very horny lately! Been going off his feed and such.
Here is my female Spotted Python, Trillian. She is only a few months old and growing RAPIDLY. She is my first baby. I am hoping to get a male for her in the spring or fall so they will be ready to go in 2 or 3 years time.
My Red-Eyed Crocodile Skink, Lilo, oh how I loathe her and love her at the same time. I never get to see her; I saw her once floating in her water bowl a month ago, but she's always hiding. It also doesn't help Crocodile Skinks are not known to be notorious feeders... these guys eat when they want to eat, so I waste feeder bugs on her like no tomorrow.
My Crested Geckos, Iggy and Pop! One of them is a month old, and the other is two months old. I think they look skinny, but people told me they look fine to them. I am hoping they will turn out male-female.
3-2-1! FOOOOOOOOD! AMWAY! GET OUT OF MY WAY! MUDPILE! Here are my Tiger Salamanders; I got them from a gecko breeder who was spending over $10 a week on each of them, and he had 10 at the time. These guys were rescuees from people's bad husbandry, and since they were exposed to other herptiles, we agreed it was not wise to re-release them in the wild.
There's three subspecies of Tiger Salamanders in there, can you spot them?
Oh... and their names? From bottom-left to top-right: Justin, Jeremy (at the bottom of the pile), Jonathan (on top of Jeremy), and Nicodemus, and Jenner.
I got this dude; he's in a used pickle jar now. I named him Sid for no reason. Not much to say about him...
Next year, I am looking at a trio of Ackie monitors, a pair of Clouded boas, a pair of Honduran boas, a pair of Argentine boas, a pair of Children's Python and some skinks.
