Hello - My Little Collection

Hello all... I registered a few weeks ago but have just been lurking. Thought I would say hello and share my little collection that grew from just one corn snake that I got a few months ago.

The pics are pretty large, so I'll just link to them.

First off, my corn snake, which is currently MIA. I forgot to put the clips back on the tank one night and he made an escape. Its been 4 days or so and no sign of him. Major bummer. Almost want to get another corn, but I need to keep his tank open in case he returns.

Next, I decided I wanted a python, but I couldn't have just one. I purchased a male pastel and female normal from Matthew Watkins through a classified ad on here.

Male Eating Again (Don't know why the colors are funky)
Female Shying Away

My friend has a few beardies and really made me want one so I got a baby beardie as well. I tried taking pictures of him, but they all came out like crap, so I'll show him off at a later time.

Finally, my newest addition is a baby Argentine black and white tegu that I picked up at Repticon Orlando last weekend. He's sitting next to me as I type this.

Still haven't named any of my reptiles and wish I could come up with some names.

Sorry some of the pics arent the best quality, but hope you enjoyed them.
 
Hello, welcome. We saw you lurking, everyone was watching you....
Nice bright amel, hope he's still hanging around. People have had them show up after weeks.
 
Oooh, that amel is gorgeous! I almost need to put sunglasses on... Oh, great, now I have a case of "I want"!! =)

Good luck finding him... If you have any pet rodents in the house, keep a special eye out around their cages. I had my first escape this last month, and ended up finding the little sand boa headed straight for the bathroom, where my mice are kept... Oh, and he probably would've been doggie poop if I hadn't banished most of the dogs and desensitized the last to the snakes...

Good luck with the escapee.. and GORGEOUS collection!!!
 
Thanks... I sure hope he turns up. The rest of my collection is great but my corn snake was my first and I really hope he'll com out safe.
 
Welcome!!! Hope you have a good time here.

I certainly hope your corn will show up. One rule of thumb... IF you buy another one as a replacement, he'll show up for sure!! Happened to me twice! LOL.
 
Great news... I came back to my apartment tonight after many games of beer pong and my roommate found the corn when he was taking off his shoes. She had been hiding in the closet with the water heater and was probably behind it as I've searched that closet many times. I can't tell you how happy I am to have him/her back. So relieved and so happy.
 
Hello from a fellow Floridian! You have a nice looking collection started!
Give us some time, and we'll find some names for you. :D LOL.
(Oh, and a side note, I take massive pictures, too. I post all my pictures on Myspace before posting them on here. Myspace automatically resizes the pictures so they fit perfectly on a forum. Just FYI. :D)
