Default What reptiles make good reptile parties?

Exactly as the thread topic asks...

I've thought of doing reptile parties before but the whole thing of "if something bit somebody thing" put me off.

What I'd like to know is what reptiles make a reptile party really exciting and fun?

I've given this alot of thought to but i just don;t have the room to keep anymore reptiles right now.

When i do i'm hoping to start doing them - i would go with the more common docile rep's like

corns, kingsnakes, royals, Leo geckos, BD'S, As for bigger reptiles maybe a boa?

If I get asked to take some of my zoo to do a visit I normally take a king snake, a couple of different sized royals and my tia's. The royals are for the handling and pictures the others are just for showing and to be talked about.

I took - 1 baby and one sub adult b&w tegus, 3 corn snakes, 1 baby boa, 1 leopard gecko, 5 beardies, 3 texas ratsnakes, 1 massive kingsnake.

It was more determined by what I have! Exeryone was perfectly behaved, and they all had to come out again at the eld for the adults to have a hold...

you can take almost any animal aslong as it is tame and that you are always on your guard, hold the head end of the snake so it is never near the children just incase, get the children to wear gloves with certain animals (large claws etc). personaly i wouldnt take any animal that doesnt travel well such as chamleons.
plus you will be insured if anything does go wrong (which it shouldnt but animals can be unpredictable at times)
