I dragged OH along to visit the reptile room in blackpool whilst we were over there for a few days. I held their crested geckos which were SOOOO gorgeous and OH held one too.
We both fell instantly in love with them and he very quickly gave me permission to get one!
Yay!
I wonder if they will have some at the Doncaster show. The one in the shop was just gorgeous but I didn't have anything ready for the little guy so I didn't want to buy him there and then.
Soon to be a crestie owner  |

SO adorable I haven't met it in person yet but the breeder was kind enough to send me some photos.
He/she is still developing colours and crests and soooooo teeny. Wanna see photos?  What am I saying, of course you do!
Here he/she is.
Fired up
Unfired, hadn't woken up yet. Sooooooo teeny!

Although geckos are go I'm even allowed to get a pair or a trio I've already found a gorgeous tiger juvi that I've fallen in love with and may have to pick up before Donny
grrrrrrrrrrrr to your OH and a |

The sticky feet club appears to be growing 
We should insist on a forum just for sticky feet owners
Moppet you will have to get a Hognose to add to your growing collection. |

Prism is currently in a glass exoterra but it's a good size one, 2ft wide and high, 18 inches deep and obviously it won't be big enough for her forever. When she moves up would that be any good for, say, a pair of cresties, or would it just be too big? It would be quite nice to find something we like which could use it as a forever home.
lol love it!!!!
If there is plenty of cover,( dunelm ivy again!!)its great, i think poor Prism might be getting her new viv a LOT sooner than she thinks!!! |

That's the tank I'm getting for my cresties as adults Had to okay the final tank size with OH before I got permission and he said yes to one of those.

Oooooh. I'm planning on getting a juvenile crestie as my first one so I won't know gender but I might have to look into getting several females for a nice trio or pair

Haha, OH won't be going to Donnie. Not his sort of thing I will be with my tortoise fan friend She'll be the sensible one saying 'no, you don't need another reptile' and trying to pull me away from the tables  Oh hang on, that might not narrow it down either...
I think it'd be nice to have a cornsnake forum folk get together somehow, even if it's just a 'look out for this obvious thing I'll be wearing' type of thing. Perhaps I will wear brightly coloured shoes or a strange hat or something
