    I'm happy to see someone talk about butterfly agamas! I got mine a while ago, and although neither of them are handleable right now ( They're a communal species btw, I have a Rubritaeniata male and a Ngovantrii, soon adding another Rubritaeniata female ), I hope I get them there eventually. I have a breeding pair, and fully intend on bringing more captive bred butterfly agamas in the pet trade. They're wonderful creatures, really.

    I've noticed that (and I may be wrong) that you haven't reccomended would be an African House Snake. In my experience keeping them they've been pretty bullet proof, easy going, have beautiful morphs and locales, reasonable size, and great beginner animals. I think that it could be a good alternative for number 2.

    You showed the Solomon Island ground boa all while you were talking about the viper boa. I didn't see any viper boas but I may have missed it earlier on. CBB viper boas are a lot better tempered than their WC individuals who solidified their reputation as "cantankerous". I'm getting a high white Paulsoni before the end of the year, but I also plan on getting an Aspera soon after!

      We have a Solomon Island ground boa and while she's very food motivated, she's never once tried to bite us. Just boop her with a snake hook if she's in food mode and then she's fine. She's only a year old so she's about the size of one of our male hognoses. Fun fact: they can change color to some extent. It's not like how a chameleon does, but she can go from a light silvery green to a nice dark almost black green.
