Edited on Sat Dec-20-08 08:46 PM by LuckyTheDog
I'm bored with all the cat pictures:



His name is Oliver. He is a Mali uromastyx.

4. We have at least a 100 of these in and around our house

I've found the eggshells after the babies hatched in nesting areas. They started hanging around here about 10 years ago. Since then, no roaches, no ants of any kind-even the fire ants disappeared.

6. Cool!
I am starting to get the impression that DU Loungers are mostly cat people and dog people (I have one of each, by the way) and not so much lizard people.

16. I'm a dog person
But I don't mind the wild critters. They serve an ecological function if left alone. We also have a huge toad that lives inside the water meter hole in the yard.

17. I love lizards, snakes, turtles, and toads.
I love reptiles and amphibians in general, to be honest.

7. I like that little lizard a lot
My wife and son bought him with my consent, but not my participation. Since then, though, I have become quite attached to Oliver.

14. If I didn't keep him stoned, he'd tear the house apart. He is The Beast after all!
:smoke:

Actually, he was sleeping when I was taking those shots, and I just caught him opening his eyes. :)

11. I don't have pictures of Jasper or Opal but here's one I found on the 'net:


(Opal was a little more pinkish, and Jasper was a little more brownish.)

12. My sweet little Nanashi


I had to give him away when I went to college, but he was the sweetest turtle ever. Didn't care if little kids poked him, liked to chase after toes, and he loved to watch tv. I miss him ;_;
