I've had my corn snakes and leopard geckos for nearly 10 years now, I've no room for any other animals so they're the only ones i've been able to keep so far. Some time in the future i'll probably keep different species though hopefully.

I have owned seven different snake species.

Five species of snake and two lizard species

Quite an extensive list sir... how many of those species do you still currently keep?

[KORBIN5895]

Actually I'm at 9 species of snakes.

[Aaron_S]

Just the ball pythons and rough scale sand boas.

The rest were years ago and I streamlined. I love my hobby more now. I also never kept all of those at one time.

I forgot to added spotted pythons though. I knew I had an Aussie species.

[Derek Roddy]

Rock on...It's cool to get an idea of what everyone has kept.

cheers,
D

[Dave Kelley]

Pretty boring list compared to some of ya'll!

Irian Jaya Carpets Morelia spilota ssp.
Jungle Carpets Morelia spilota cheynei
Coastal Carpets Morelia spilota mcdowelli
Carpet Python Intergrades Morelia spilota designeri ;)
Green Tree Pythons Morelia viridis
Corn snakes Pantherophis guttatus
Bearded Dragons Pogona vitticeps
Leopard Geckos Eublepharis macularius
Crested Geckos Correlophus ciliatus
Ball Pythons Python Regius
Hogg Island Boas Boa constrictor imperator

Seems like that's it.

[possum]

No such thing as a boring snake (or list of...) this was an interesting exercise, I've actually never tried this before. I've always admired carpet pythons, green tree pythons & Brazilian rainbow boas.... oh & indigo snakes...just not enough hours in the day to keep everything. And some of the snakes I had were taken in as rescues rather than a conscious selection on my part, but no regrets there. I'd rather have a snake than needs help than the prettiest one in the book anyway.
