    I've been having little chats with him to make him better understand the situation, but he's not really into working with me here.

    So I may have to bust out the welding gloves to move him to the new terrarium. But even then, this bastard tried lunging at me the night this happened. He's a pretty good little jumper!
    I am LMAO. You are such a freakin' disaster. The pet shops should have YOU chipped so they know where you are at all times. They can throw that closed sign up real quick if you get too close.

    Them fuckers would all love to have me as an employee! And sounds like Dis too! Someone who loves the animals, including the rats, reptiles, fishies & even the crickets!! (until it's time to be eaten anyway)

    Damn do I ever feel normal.

    And no, not Dis. She'd have customers filling out applications that would make immigration forms look like 1040-EZ. Never get anything sold.

    I had 2 of them a few years ago. They didn't seem to mind me, as in trying to bite me, but they surely weren't looking to make friends with me either.

    Now my Savannah was cool as hell, and I truly think he did like me. I even built like a 6' cage for him. But he kept growing. He started eyeballing my Pug back then a little too often when he walked by. I had to feed that sucker with a 4' long or so pair of tongs. He wasn't particularly nasty, just wouldn't stop growing!

    I was a beginner into the reptile world at the time. I knew a lot because my brother is a fanatic... but this was an instance of not learning everything one can before bringing a pet into their home.

    No, I just know you and pets. "I'm sorry, sir, but you are not qualified to adopt this pet. It seems you were mean to a kitten in the 3rd grade. NEXT!"
