Scaly Critters

Anyone else keep reptiles?

Sorry if this thread has already been created, but just curious if anyone else keeps reptiles. Currently we have 3 beardies and a veiled chameleon, but I have kept many different critters. Hoping that when the two new get a little older we can start breeding in a year or so. Our largest beardie is a sunburst and the two little ones are just your average run of the mill dragons.

The two babies Colt and Kimber,we are thinking they are about 5 months old.


Lucy our sunburst, we are thinking she is about a year or so.





And Ricky, our Veiled. Ricky is very camara shy lol. Ricky is about a year too.

Very cool herps you got there.

I had many lizards when I was younger, specifically chameleons.

My favorite species was the jackson, because out of all the different ones, Jackson's were very tame compared to the Panthers and veils that I've had.

My female jackson, would raise her arms like a child for me to pick up, she then would slowly walk to my shoulder, put up one arm under her chin (like Austin power movies lol) and rest there. I knew she was hungry when she'd walk down to my wrists, hoping I'd aim her towards the house fly...
She was the only reptile my parents actually liked and asked about.
She was so tame I often took her to school with me, sleeping in my sweater pocket, probably wasn't th best idea, but she never showed stress colors from that. The male made her mad a lot though hahah!

Oh man how I miss my veiled, they are really fun and your set up looks to be really cool, I ended up getting rid of them due to not being home enough. Keeping them happy is a challenge as I'm sure you know I just didn't have the time but they went to a good home

Thanks for sharing!!
