Mine was either a western plains garter snake, or a green tree skink. I got the two so close together in time, and I was so young, that I don't remember which came first, so I guess I'll choose "other". If you had a caecelian, amphisbaenian, or a kid as your first one, then I guess other would be for you too

Mine was an Eastern box turtle some 30 years ago. I found it and it lived in the backyard all summer, I returned it to the woods where he came from in the fall, the next spring I found another, I told myself it was the same one and that he wanted me to take care of him again. lol

Well I picked "Lizard" but I guess that was a lie cuz I used to catch and keep turtles as a kid... my first one that I ever purchased to keep was a bearded dragon...

Our first ever herp was Spectre, my daughter's corn snake, whom we got one year ago this month. He was definitely a wonderful alternative to the tarantula she originally wanted!  So much so, in fact, that now I have three more snakes....
