My iguana I got when I was 14 died after 3 years from some disease. I took it to the vet when it was sick and he said it had bone cancer. I miss Iggy. (Sob)

[mykee]

Yes, because I only got them a year ago.

I had my first reptile, Rex the green anole, for 7 years. He just died a few months ago :( I really liked him, but it is kinda funny he never seemed to like me even after 7 years lol

My first "forever herp", not a wild-caught that I enjoyed for awhile, was an ornate horned frog that died 2 years ago at the ripe old age of 26.

Long live Captain Crunch at the Rainbow Bridge!

I've only had my little Rosy, Dozer, for just under a year, but I hope that I am able to stay with him forever! He is just the cutest!

Unfortunately Peterson the green anole is no longer with us.....he was the bomb!!!

[Tim_Cranwill]

Nope. First herps were a group of wc garters back in about '92. Let them go the following spring. Great experience! :)

I got my first herp, a green iguana, when I was 4 years old. 18 years later she is still bootin' around the house :D

We'll keep 'Niya', our high yellow leo for as long as she'll keep us!

[Tara Garratt]

We got our first reptiles about seven years ago. They are our red-eared slider turtles. We still have Ernest and Scruggs (both girls), and we will likely have them for many more years.

Lol. 3 green anoles, 2 females 1 male, bubbles fluffy and toughy. I was six and they died when I was about 9. Good memories with them, bur one realyl stands out. I rember one day, my father helping me clean, it was christmas time, I was getting bubbles out, who was usually calm, and she jumped off my hand and ran into our christmas tree. It was quite fun getting her out of there. After we got her out she then got away again and dashed under our couch. It was easier than getting her out of the tree!
