Perhaps I was a little bored earlier but I was sitting and trying to think if I could only keep ONE species of reptile, what I would choose?

I haven't yet decided, was thinking Royal Python Morphs (enough variety to keep me interested, or perhaps just stick to my gilas, Anyway what would you guys choose? (Price, Space,Availability and DWA are all NO ISSUE).

Komodo's definatley would be cool, you may find yourself sleeping in the shed though Laughing

Gila's are cool, as are some of the tree monitors. If I had to choose one species it'd more then likely be a lizard and then some kind of varanid thinking about it.... Confused

yeah, I guess a real good natural set up for some blue tree monitors or a nice rocky desert set up for some pilbarensis or my leucistic kingorum Cool

Well, i've done retics so i'll not say those Cool

I too would go with something that i could really spoil with a naturalistic set up. That said, it would have to be big.
I'd probably go with an enclosure some where along the lines of 20x10 feet with normal room sized height. I could get 5 or 6 boeleni in there, along with a decent sized pool (if allowed there'd be koi type fishy in there) and a visible divide in the enclosure between a rocky type environment and a rainforesty type side - much like the bottom of a mountain where the ground changes. There would of course be a nice spot in there for me to sit in and enjoy it all.

Bit more than you wanted i think but i enjoyed dreaming while posting so it doesn't matter, LOL
