New project suggestions

I'd be jumping on the Antaresias (personally, but I have a bias towards them)... They are a very easy species to keep.

Stimson's would be the way to go, if you were going to take a pick of the complex.

are there any major differences between them(children/stimsons/spotted) besides size and patterning? They seem to be very similar.

I like the stimsons for sure. I'll consider them, although admittedly they don't "hit the spot' if you will. Not something I've ever fell in love with like GTP's or boelens etc. etc. lol

Nope not really... they all have different scalation counts but apart from that pretty much the same.

A. perthensis is the only real distinct member of the complex (apart from pygmy stims that is)

Aspidites could be another avenue to explore... I don't know squat about any species that's not native to Oz so can't help with anything else.

Strophurus geckos are also a good lizard to keep... if your looking at lizards or you can stick with the Nephs, I keep N. l. pilbarensis. There's pics of them somewhere on here if you want to have a look..

Yea I saw your pics of those cute little baby knobs. Thats why I pmed you initially about mine. I'm not going to get rid of my male, and if I see another female I will grab her when the time comes. I like the womas too, and they are on the list as well. They are readily available here as well.

(secretly most of my favorite reptiles come from oz, consider yourself lucky you live there lol )

how about Carpet pythons? Or indigos/cribos, Water snakes, carpondros.

I dont have money for indigos. There is so many carpet breeders already and I've already kept them in the past. (I love them, but looking for something new)
