You know you're living with beardies when...

Just thought we could start identifying things around the house that indicate a house full of beardies, i.e. You know you're living with beardies when...
while barefoot, you step on a thorn. When you remove it, it's actually a shedded beardie scale!

You know you're living with beardies when...
Crickets sing from all corners WITHIN the house!

You know you're living with beardies when...
Your refrigerator is full of worms and this is a very good thing, not a sign for a serious cleaning job!

I know there are many more ways that show others we are doing things a little bit differently! So, how do you know you're living with beardies?

... when your mother takes you to a very expensive spa which is stunning but the only bit of decor that you get really excited about is the room full of bogwood structures which you imagine stealing one for your beardie.
(mother was not amused).

You seem to have the most insanity-revealing moments when you're with your mother, Holly. Swearing at surgical staff and imagining stealing pieces of wood from a spa for your lizards.... :lol: I wonder why that is. :roll:

When you see something move along the floor when you are out shopping you scream 'aaaaiiiiiii yaaaaaaa' before jumping onto it with full flailing arms...obviously. This usually results in a few funny looks and a very red face


I CAN SOOOOOOOOOOOO RELATE!!!! BEARDIES RULE!!!! BEARDIES ROCK!!!!

Hmm... has this one been done? You know you're living with beardies when your family has to wait on food because the rocks in the oven have to finish baking first.

 

[gulfbrzdawn]

....when the entertainment of the day for your son and his friends is watching the blood & guts ooze out your beardie's mouth, while chomping down on fat juicy hornworm! :roll:

You know you're living with reptiles when...

...You are texting (which I rarely do, email is much easier and cheaper, but she was at the airport) a friend, and you say 'I can't wait! Something really big is going on this weekend! I want to surprise you, so don't ask.' She says 'Are you getting a new snake?'
:shock: How did she know??? I had not dropped any hints or anything that I might be getting a new snake. At all. :lol: If I say 'something big' everyone assumes it's reptiles... and usually they're right!

No joke!
Sundays used to be the day that I would enjoy my "quiet" time before hubby got out of bed. Now it's dedicated to cleaning all of the vivs and the gecko cage. SHEESH!

Ah, yes! Weekends used to be my only free days... not anymore!


...When you no longer recognize the term 'free time'. Free time? What is free time? I have school time, work time, and beardie time.

When you learn how to save time by tossing their crickets in their bath!

I did that today to try and get some fluids in them. I tossed crickets in their bath and they ate them :shock:
