    Lol. That's a good one. I try to keep things clean, too. But to be honest with you I never cleaned my bathtub every day like I do now since we have the lizrds lol. The other day I went to the store and bought a big bag of Sardines. A guy asked me how I cook them. I sad " I don't cook them. I thaw them out and then give them to my lizards " . The look on his face was priceless lol. He asked me what kind of lizards I have. I told him that we have five Tegus and a black throat monitor. I told him how big they get and gave him my youtube channel info. He looked at me again like I'm nuts lol. I love it.

    Or when you want to buy a meat grinder for your Kitchenaid mixer and you ask the seller if you can grind up some bones, too. So you can feed it to your lizards lol. I just did that on eBay lol.

    A strange thing just happened. We just ordered some Chinese delivery guy just asked me if we have any lizards when he droped of the food lol. I have no clue how he knows that we have some lizards. I gave him my username to my youtube channel and he had a big smile on his face ( he's very young ). I'm surprised he never asked me/us this before.

    I had that issue in my apartment, all my cages were in the living room which the front door opened right to, so any door to door people or delivery people always did a double take. usually one of the first things I get when people come in my living room "what all do you have going on in here?" most of mine are small though so unassuming cages but multiple none the less..

    When we open our door you can't see the enclosures unless you are right by the doorstep. Two of them are of to the side.

    This topic is my favorite! Reading thru most of these I keep wondering who put up the camera in my house LoL...

    Some to Add-

    You know you're a Herper when:
    -In the summertime your bathtub houses your incubator (P.S. We're in tx)
    -There's a 40 in every room... 40 oz bottle of hand-sani that is!
    -People stop by every month just to see what's new
    -The only magazine not in your bathroom but out on the table is Reptiles
    -Rubbermaid is your preferred brand for hide/lay boxes
    -There is a tank in every room in your house (and a few outside, for those warm sunny days)
    -Your pet insurance is more than your own
    -When friends bring their kids over because it's cheaper and cooler than a day at the zoo
    -You don't hide your gram scale


    Alright, those are my two cents LoL.. I'm done for now
