There was also a 15ft male Burmese python for really cheap, only $150 but I had no where to put it. They also had albino King cobras. And a tortise big enough for me to ride on. And just about every reptile you could name. My friend got a Big Tokay gecko and thats it. I was one of the better reptile shows.
I love reptiles. I want to get a snake. My friend had a 6 foot python. Its pretty awesome.

thats cool. I'm gettin ready to move outta this place, and won't get another one until I settle down somewhere...my g/f has two. Her's are much more friendly than mine. She lets them run around the living room, whereas I have to put mine in a pen thing if I put him on the ground. Otherwise he'll turn yellow, his beard will go black, and he'll flare up and attack your feet.
All I ever had were gartner snakes and geckos. I'd love to have a monitor- but they need a lot of space and a calmer environment than I could provide. I think the dogs would make it age prematurely.
__I'll warn you- this next bit is me being all gooshy. I love snakeskin- living snakeskin- the underbelly on a small snake. It's magic; it's so unique. Handling a snake is more awesome than seeing, I don't know, a sunrise alone in the fog? It's just this same feeling- how perfect it is itself- most people dismiss it or assume what it is like, but look directly at it for yourself.
