Reptile Appreciation Thread

Affectionate? Nope.
Cold, and calculating? Most definitely.
Plotting the overthrow of humanity? Signs point to yes.
Awesome?

AWWW YEAAAAAH!

No animal chills as hard as snakes and reptiles do, it's their sole occupation. Shroomerites with pet snakes or reptiles -- Post pictures of and/or discuss your scaly overlords.

My bearded dragon Silent Bob:






He's two years old and about a foot and half long with the tail. I walk him on a harness leash and freak the shit out of my neighbors and motorists, nearly caused a few crashes this month :lol:

Fuck yeah, I have a 4 or 5 year old leopard gecko named Karen. She's badass. I love watching these guys hunt.

Leopard geckos are awesome, it's hilarious how neurotic they are about their tanks -- A friend of mine changed the color of the carpet liner in his geckos cage and it stopped eating for a month. Have you ever seen the jumbo ones? They're....unnatural looking, but still cool as hell.
I dig that geckos, bearded dragons, and snakes like being held, I sometimes perch Bob on my shoulder like a parrot and not a single fuck is given.

Yeah wtf. At first I was like ok, just some lizard porn. Then I realized they're ALL fucking cars. And then I LOLd.
:feelsweirdman:

I had an iguana as a kid, but it eventually died :sad: I'd like to get another reptile some day. Maybe a horned chameleon. They look badass.

Bearded dragons have a lot of personality for lizards, and if you raise them from hatchlings they dig people too -- mine actually likes to be pet (particularly on the face or the stomach) and will close his eyes or wriggle around as a result.

Also that sig is :vaped:

Did you make that?

for sure man, probably my favorite reptile.
I had one as a baby, but it got sick. We were resorting to meds, and syringe feeding. It ended up dying before it got bigger than my pinky. :sad:
Second one i got as a baby, and raised it to be full grown. Damn it got big, he was the best thing ever. Can't wait till i can get another one.

I appreciate reptiles, like the Dickens.
Not that there is a reptile named Dickens, but it would be cool to have one.
I mean like, totally.

I found a baby Horned Lizard at the last gathering I attended,
I name him "Dickens" for posterity's sake.

I sometimes work at a Petco in the summer (although this year I've stayed around school) and I was sort of their de facto Reptile guy -- And I ended up caring for a lot of sick reptiles that customers had brought back. I would say 90% of the time people return their reptiles without ever obtaining a diagnosis from a Vet. There's some sort of disconnect people have with reptiles, a bearded dragon will live 8-10 years with proper care and yet people act like they're returning a goldfish or something. We had a bearded dragon hatchling brought back to us that was weak and clearly dying -- turned out to be a major calcium deficiency. Obviously hadn't been kept under a UV lamp and his eyes were crusted shut. Another employee and I put him in his own tank, gave him calcium supplement through a liquid syringe, and pried his mouth open once a day to feed him small crickets.

Often times bearded dragons will wriggle around when they are really comfortable:



Along with arm waving it's easily their most endearing behavior:



Anyway the hatchling held on for about four days -- the last night he was alive I couldn't get him to eat so I put him on my shoulder as I did my walk of the store. He wriggled around a bit and settled with his head propped on my neck. When I brought him back to wellness he clung onto my shirt and resisted attempts to remove him; another endearing thing about bearded dragons is that they'll often try to stay on you when you're putting them away -- they love that body heat something fierce. I came in the next day and he'd already been removed from his tank dead in the night. I was so fucking sad. I'd had Bob for about 5 months at that point and proceeded to treat him like a damned king for a while (and he had it pretty good to begin with.)
