Thanks everyone, I'm glad you all liked the pics. I have multiple specimens of a lot of those species but no need to post photos of every individual.
The wormlizards are very different. They are a really unique group of reptiles that most people never see (including myself and I own one).
Chameleons are generally shy but it really varies based on the species and individual. They definitely aren't good animals if you want to hold your pet frequently.
I have a clutch of 10 baby montium at the moment, another clutch incubating and a gravid female. They are a beautiful species, thats for sure.
The G. hamiltonii are amazing turtles. They're definitely one of my favorites. I'm planning on expanding my group so that once they get bigger I can try to breed them. That'll be a few years off of course.
Ha, thank you. I try to make sure they are all happy and healthy. Not always easy, especially with some of the chameleons, but its definitely worth it when they are.
The Doria's are interesting lizards. Unfortunately I only have two females and haven't been able to find a male. Everyone told me that the Gonocephalus were difficult lizards to keep, especially as CB, but these two are easy as can be. It might be because I keep them in a huge cage with live plants and an automatic mist system like I do my chameleons but who knows.
That photo was from earlier this year when she (?) was in a 55 gallon. She now lives in a 150 and eventually will need to upgrade from there too. She has a great personality and is a lot of fun. She swims along the side of the tank following you if you're in the room and begs for food. My other FRT is younger and much more shy.

Wow!! And a great big THANK YOU!
Gorgeous collection and fabulous pictures.
While I'm suitably impressed by the species variety, and quite impressed at the picture quality, very impressed at the apparent health of the animals and there quality of care: I am stunned by the combination of all three with so many individuals clearly getting so much attention on so many levels.
