Thats how it is here at my house, the neighbors come over to watch and when my oldest boys friends come over they always ask if its feeding day.

When you go to walmart to get one tub and come out with the entire stock of 35 quart tubs so you have a reason to fill them all up. :taz:
Don't ask how I know this one LOL

when you buy ziplock bags to hold frozen rodents and snake poo.

When you buy only one kind of paper towel...... not because they are better, but because they fit in a 6qt shoe box just right!

if that stain on your shirt isn't chocolate pudding, it's poo.

shhhh, it's pudding. :P

well, there are some crested gecko diet stains on the herp room carpet. and some poo stains. no pudding stains though!

i just noticed this one...

you might be a herper if you own more thermometers then you do pairs of shoes.

you're camera has more pictures of snakes then anything else.

you buy the a/c unit, not because you can't stand the 93 degree heat, but because the crested geckos can't.

Had to laugh because we control the temps for comfort of our pets! Our heating and cooling bills are outrageous.:eek:

You might be a herper if....

- you phone your friend Robin and the men in your lives want to know who in hell you are talking to about "balls and racks"

- your master bedroom doubles as the quarantine room and you start referring to it as "QT"

- you know your friend's snake collection almost as well as you know your own

- your 6 year old goes to see the snake show at the zoo and when they offer to let him touch the cornsnake he gives them a "you've GOT to be kidding look", then spends 10 minutes explaining to the snakekeeper about ball pythons

- you put off buying a new couch because it would impact on those precious snake buying dollars

- you have to steal your kid's 8Ball t-shirt on wash day

- you have to steal your husband's 8Ball t-shirt on wash day

Those are SO TRUE!!!!

I just bought 5 more Accu-Rites at Wal-Mart this week!!

My camera does have mostly pictures of my BP and Tegu.

This spring I bought a new air conditioner, with a digital thermostat, for our bedroom to not over heat my BP. I set the A/C's to 76 to keep from the herps (in almost every room) from getting too cool! Our comfort is secondary!
