I am sure there are more that went under my care, but the ones above are the ones I remember the best. Some of the above herps make me wonder why the hell people buy them, especially the hot ones, and then give them up.

Sometimes that's the best, lol. You can devote more of your time to that animal. Most of my current guys are all just display animals so they're low key but when I had two 4 foot monitors and 2 6 foot igs at the same time they drove me nuts. Mainly because the igs were free roaming. Right now my guy that gets the most attention is my lovebird milo. He's like a little person, such personality on these guys.AttackFish;844906; said:I have the smallest list, Lol

I hope to get more once I move out and get a job (Im only 14 haha)
But once I do move out and everything Im probably going to get a few more boids, and probalby build an enclosure for a dumerils monitor or tegu as I have always wanted one or both if I have enough money to build two enclosures.
But im happy with my collection right now.
Everyone has awesome collections! I really like reading what everyone has!
