you know you're a reptile keeper when...

[Octane]

When you already have a dedicated herp food freezer and consider buying an extra one for more capacity.
When you plan your holidays and buy a four wheel drive for the purpose of visiting the localities where your animals come from.

What about when you look at a reptile site other than this one or herptrader, and you feel like a dirty cheater!!

 

[snakeluvver]

when you try to educate your brother on how awesome snakes and lizards are then your step mother says 'nah just kill them' and you want to pound her.

omg I HATE people like her, I WOULD pound her

yeap and my dad is married to her! imagine how i feel when she says stuff like 'i would send a lizard flying by its tail' and 'if i ever saw a snake of any kind i would grab the closest sharp object and chop its head off' i turn a lovely shade of crimson and my knuckles turn a luminous shade of white!!!

I feel for you I can sorta understand people not liking snakes much, but what on earth could be wrong with lizards? I would say what I think of her but if I did I would probably be banned from this site if I did.

when u stop and pick up bits of foam on the side of the road

 

[snakes123]

When you hear crickets and automatically think food

When you are so addicted to APS your parents have to use parental controls to block it, bummer for them i know the password

When you go to a friends house and think 'This would be a great herp room'

 

[Defective]

When you go to a friends house and all you see is potential snake food

@snakeluvver I couldn't care less what you said about her. When we use to stay at her property with dad I'd wake up early and get rid of the 15+ browns that would be around before she got to them...I was 10

 

[Dannyboi]

Didn't you get bitten by a brown?

Who needs undies. And whilst your at it turn the aircon on.

 

[richoman_3]

when you got to garage sales and markets to look for cheap enclosures
the people at your local petshop have a VIP cricket section just for you
you casually sneak onto APS on a mates computer

You've bred rabbits for 15 years, yet have no idea what their average life span is.

You hear someone describing their new high-resolution 20" monitor and wonder if it's Australian or Indonesian.

You answer the door holding a big fat snake & wonder why the Jehovah's Witnesses won't talk with you.

You have a special drawer to keep perfect sheds in.

You quit smoking not to better your health, but out of concern for the effect of second hand smoke on your herps.
