....What reptile room would you have?
I was just watching something on TV called Jackpot Homes.
It's about the houses that lottery winners have bought.
And I was thinking about the first room I would have is definitely a reptile room.
Which got me thinking "If I could have literally any reptiles in the world what would they actually be"....
So thought I'd make this topic to find out which reptiles you guys would have if you could have any you want in the world :D

Possibly a whole reptile house!

Provided flying penguins aren't a protected species.

Or White Giraffes.

I've day dreamed about this so much!

I'd have just about everything you can think of, all in amazing naturalistic vivs! I'd convert a basement into a massive aquarium and go scuba diving with all the tropical fish. Would want some crazy stuff like lion cubs too! Basically I'd make my own zoo... would probably even get the license and get some crocs, a black mamba, rattle snakes etc!

If I won the lottery I would open an animal sanctuary. Where all neglected and abused animals can come and be nursed back to health and then rehomed. With a special reptile centre of course. May as well do something worth while with my millions.

I like the idea of taking in abused and neglected reptiles.
I was going to do a similar thing with cars.
Buy old cars, restore them to a high modern standard, then give them away to people who need and deserve them, with like a years insurance and a fuel allowance at a certain garage near to there home.
Seems quite stupid but worth while in my opinion :).

Agreed, me too! And all the people that worked there and had so much knowledge would be paid a decent wage instead of the crappy minimum that most animal keepers get.

I'd buy a farm house with loads of land and have loads of animals and reptiles. Would try and look after rescue animals and find them new homes or just keep them and look after them.

Id buy a farmhouse in the middle of nowhere, with lots of acres of land for animals and become self sufficient. I wouldn't build on my snake collection but I would have theiv vivs built into the walls. It's ok having the money but I'd still like the time so wouldn't buy any more :D

Ooh,I'd have a few rooms. One with snakes,more corns,a pied royal,blue beauty,sunbeam snake and that gorgeous Epicrates assisi rainbow boa I fell in love with last night on the rainbow boa forum!
A lizard room with beardies,veiled chameleons, blue tongued skinks,thorny devils and a nile monitor.
Then an amphibian room with red eyed tree frogs,milk frogs,axolotls and dart frogs.
I'd also have a sanctuary for wild animals and I'd love a husky,ragdoll cat,some otters,peregrine falcons,hyacinth macaws,arabian horses and Afrian elephants! Could ramble on all day lol!

Oops nearly forgot,I want an invert room too!!

Lol that's all my dad used to win, until one day he won £70, he was so chuffed he actually gave me some of it XD

I'd deficiently get a Mexi Black king, Albino Cali king, Blue tongued skink, unicorn snake and some expensive Vaseline so I can polish his horn, Rosy boa. I'd also get a royal python as well since my b/f likes them and a BCI, male since the b/f wants a big snake and I don't want anything too huge XD

Probably buy a slipper lobster and a vampire crab as well and makes lots of room and re-home ex-battery/barn hens.



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3
