Thats cool as hell bro. Nice buds!

If you have time...tell me what its like owning a lizard..
I've always been a dog person, but something always pulls me to the reptile section of every pet store I go to. Only problem is, I cant see myself really holding one without kinda freaking out ya know? What draws you to have a lizard? Favorite part of owning one? Do they bite? Those spiky things on its sides stab you?

Thanks

I own just about everything dogs, snakes, turtles, lizards, frogs, salamanders, fish, a raccoon. I love plants and animals always have! the lizard in the pic is a Crested Gecko.... They come in MANNNNYY color patterns mine is Extreme harliquin. I have never been bitten by my gecko tho the nile monitors I used to have were ferocious haha....but those are for advanced reptile owners lizards are great they are for the most part one of the easier reptile species to keep expecially crested geckos because they come from a mild climate so they enjoy room temperature 70-78 degrees.... kinda like plants haha...I always had them ever since I was little and just kept getting more and more. I would highly recomending gettiing a reptile they are fun to keep and watch and can have very unique personalities. And no those spikes are soft and silk and his skin feels almost like velvet really cool creature they were known to be extinct until a scientist found them on a remote island in 1994! crazy man shows that there are still ALOT of species to discover! What kind you want is totally up to you and your budget the skys the limit with reptiles ive seen snakes sell for over $50,000 a piece!!!!

HAHA ya good ol' raccoon willie lol yah Ive had mine since it was a baby we are guessing it was a day old the mom got hit on the road and we were riding bikes down this path n heard screaming like a newborn baby lol walked about 10ft into the tall grass and found her with 3 of her dead siblings. she had a messed up eye almost looked like coyote tried eating her but ya we brought her home nursed her back to health n now she runs this house haha we had to make every cabinet every door raccoon proof she doesnt do any damage the worst she has done is go through the tool box and hide sockets in her custom built treehouse in out backyard...she has free roam of where ever she wants( besides my room cuz thats where my plants and small animals are located) she goes outside never leaves the yard is a total sweetheart but is very shy she has to come to you you cant go to her my gf is like her mom she can pick her up I cant but she is still sweet to me everything you read about raccoons online is HORRIBLE they are not the monsters they are made out to be they are very interesting animals if you give them the chance and have enough patience to put up with their shinanigans lol she steals fish outta the aquarium thats kinda bad....lol other than that I couldnt imagine my life without a raccoon and she gets along with both of my dogs they play like puppies its really cute haha so next time y'all (not you in particular Iregat420) but EVERYBODY when ur out on ur billy/burn ride whatever you call it and you see a raccoon please stop they are very smart creatures way smarter than your dogs or cats lol

very nice what species of cham? veiled? jackson? panther? etc... there are some REALLY good looking chams out there make sure you do you research on your breeder and find the best looking ones I took a cham as a rescue from a "friend" and he never held it barely fed it didnt even have a light it was super stressed and really pissed one of the meanest damn reptiles ive seen I can understand tho the way humans treated it why would it treat me any better lol just make sure to do reasearch and provide proper lighting I know they need special UVB and stuff
