    Default You Know Your a Herper When ...

    Your bf/gf leaves you and you don't even realize it until after all the eggs hatch.

    when you budget mice, bugs etc. into your weekly food bill.

    you're bedroom is 20 degrees warmer than the rest of the house and you hate the heat.

    you're cat walks into your room like he's about to get ambushed by the veitcong army.

    people ask you if you're a cutter from all the scratches on your arms.

    you see a bug and you're first thoughts are how easy is it to breed?

    the petstore girl starts bagging up goldfish as soon as she see's your car.

    you find lizard shedding in your pockets when doing laundry.

    you're roomate is terrified of the cardboard box in the freezer.

    lol, these are all personal experiences.

    ...when you go to Home Depot for mulch and topsoil and they ask how big your yard is
    ....when the checkout girl at the grocery store asks how you prepare your mustard greens and you explain they're for a uromastyx. A what?
    ....when you get excited to see the FedEx package because it has fresh hornworms, superworms and crickets for the babies
    ....when your girlfriend says," you know, they really are pretty cool...."
    ....when the longest trip you've taken in 3 years is to a reptile show..
    ...when you spend more money on a tegu enclosure than you've spent on your house
    ...when you get up 2 hours early for work so you can take care of all the animals
    ...when you get up early on Saturdays and Sundays to take care of all the animals, without changing their feeding schedule (3am for me)
    ...when you get in a panic because there are no crickets left in the house and Petco is out
    ...when you buy a kerosine heater just in case the power goes out...for the lizards..
    ...when people at work politely ask you "How are your lizards..." and you tell them..one by one. (They don't usually ask again. LOL)
