Answer 4

ball pythons for sure. most of them are really sweet. and they're beautiful.

Answer 5

Ball Pythons are awesome.  I've been working with snakes all summer but Ball Pythons are by far my favorite and I just got one of my own last week.  Bought his tank and everything for under 200 bucks and it was well worth it.  If you're really set on getting a lizard though, I personally like bearded dragons.  Either way, just make sure that you do your homework and know what you're getting yourself into.  Good luck!

Answer 6

corn snakes. they are the best snake to have.

but if u want a lizard water dragons, leopard geckos are very good and have good temperament

If you want more action during handling you should pick crested gecko.They are more jumpy when we handle them and are unpredictable so you have to always kepp a eye on them when you handle them.They are also easy to care for.

yep a leopard gecko! they are small, and easy to take care of, cute, are easy to breed (if you want) can live up to 30 YEARS, are cheap, dont make noise, fun to play with, easy to clean after. leopard geckos are the PERFECT PET. hope you get one.

Answer 9

Ball pythons are great have had one for 12 years, docile, good feeder. As far as lizards Iquanas are good but must maintain warmth and feeding directions, dont buy one too small they are hard to keep alive.
