What's the longest you've kept a single reptile..?
So many poeple nowadays are just buying and selling their pets all the time for no reason.. Circumstances change fair enough but I think alot just get bored and fancy a different species/morph etc.
So, question is: What's the longest you've kept one of your reptiles? I only got my first 5th May 07 and still have them (2 x Beardies) so it's just 10.5 months for me, but I believe a pet is for life.. I get too attached anyway lol. Only time I'll get sell any is when they breed and I sell babies off.

My answer is the same as Si's, i only have rehomed certain reptiles, that i couldnt fully look after properly....I would never think to just sell reptiles for no reason....
Unless i bred them and got loadsa babies...

Even though my breeding plans change etc, I'd never sell the ones I have just coz they 'dont fit in'  I love them and they are all gonna be kept! (Excpet the babies that I might have)
