Ahh phooey. You lot have the chance to buy an exotic, and it's just a different looking snake?! Where's your sense of uniqueness when it comes to selecting something we don't have.
Chameleon for me. It's a lizard, sure, but it has eyes which move independantly of each other, an incredibly long and sticky tongue, it can camoflage itself, it has a curly tail, and it walks like most of us after a few schooners at the pub. How's THAT for individuality.
