I am definitely a snake person at heart, though I keep all manner of reptiles. My flying snakes are definitely the coolest snakes I have.

I have a pair of ornate flying snakes (Chrysopelea ornata). Definitely not for everyone... they're pretty high strung, arboreal, snakes, that are mildly venomous. They get to around 30 inches in length. They almost act more like a lizard, tilting their head to look at you and things like that. Their primary diet is lizards, but they'll frequently eat small mice. They're amazing climbers, and can go straight up the lightly textured walls of my room... and then if they get startled, they'll leap off and glide to the floor and take off incredibly fast.

Can amphibians count, too? Because I'm more into them . I love newts of all kinds but especially adored my paddletails. I really like frogs and toads...I want a Red-Eyed Treefrog some day. I liked my American Toad...they aren't very active or colorful but they are great pets!

I also really like Crested Geckos and want one badly .

I love every kind of snake..... Except for Ribbon Snakes, I dont know why, I just dont really like them. But my all time favorite is the Eyelash Viper.

I like ribbon snakes too... and garter... I saw once a blue checkered ribbon (on internet) and I want one eventually. I also like cornsnakes a lot, and green tree pythons.

I LOVE newts and salamanders!!!! I wanna have some of those too. 8) And poison dart frogs are beautiful! I also like red eyed tree frogs and tiger legged tree frogs. 8)

I think that I worded this wrong, There are no animals that I DONT like, Ribbon snakes are just my least favorite snake.

Aww!!!! I was going to get one of those years ago!!! But I didn't because the one at the store was expensive and not very healthy. I adore those guys, though!

I like Poison Dart Frogs, too...forgot about them.

This thread is making me want new pets .
