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?

YKYLWBW... you scare your sister-in-law by dementing he kid with your dragons a.k.a. my niece... dragon was one of her first words... my mom is resposible, not meeee...she can only say it "daggin"... but it is SO cute when she does...

I wanted my first word to be dragon but mine was actually broken. Though at first I said it more like "booken"

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

You come home in the afternoon, walk into the kitchen for some lunch, see a box on the counter, and exclaim "Oh, good! My rats are finally here!", then proceed to extract four ziploc bags of over a hundred dead rats out of the box. :lol: There were some poor second graders doing some sort of study group thing at the kitchen table who did not appear to be nearly as excited as I was for the rats.

You know your living with a beardie when.....

there are 1000 roaches propagating in your room, 500 superworms chillin in the oatmeal , and of course hornworms trying to keep you up at night because they know they die in the morning. The kickker is that you don't mind at all, you feed them, clean up after them and then get more later! Normal people would call a professional.... :mrgreen: .

That's priceless! :lol:

I have a teacher/friend who does that. Though his students don't know (yet) that he microwaves them in the same oven as they microwave their lunch :silent: :lol:

You know you're living with beardies when...you invite your mother over to see your new apartment. You sit her down and say "Mom...I have something very important to tell you, something I've been hiding from you since I moved out...congrats you're a grandma!" you then run upstairs and return with your two beardies and gush, "motherhood is so rewarding"

Oh my gosh! If I ever did that to my parents, I think they'd both have heart attacks, then after recovering would beat the living daylights out of me.
Very funny story though :lol:

Oh that's just mean . . . though hysterical at the same time :lol:

Well when I was in his class he used to keep the pop (he used to sell us pop at $1/can) and the rats in the same fridge. That's not the case anymore. But I'm no worse off now am I? :lol:

He was/is the coolest teacher ever, well at least for me :roll: :mrgreen: . Has a pair of constrictors, although I can't remember what they are. One might be a redtail boa, not sure of the other. Also has another snake that I also don't know what it is. He also has pair of mangrove monitors, and a sav monitor as well as a turtle. All in the classroom in (mostly) customized enclosures. I'm actually picking up a 55gal from him up this week!

YKYLWBW... You walk down stairs after being called for dinner and your mom yells "That thing is NOT sitting at the table!", Because you forgot to take the beardie off your shoulder.

Really my mom loves my beardies. She will come over and spend more time with my beardies then me lol. She will come over and pick them up and talk to them and all that.

 

[PeppersGirl]

My Mum loves having Pepper at the table at dinner, he likes us having roast chicken because he gets chicken and peas

YKYLWBW...
You have roaches in your school locker (to give to a fellow slave for his beardie... )

Soooo guilty.


YKYLWBW... there is a certain set of blue cereal bowls you refuse to eat from because you can't eat without picturing the roaches, dripping in calcium powder, that were in in yesterday... :lol: (When my family asks why I don't like the bowls... "Oh, no reason." They would be hysterical if they knew I used kitchen dishes for the animals!)

 

[HumorDragon]

YKYLWBW: Your watching Jurrasic park and you come to where their talking about the genetics and show the eggs... And your mom starts saying how it is going to kill the fetuses inside. (They were turning the eggs around.) :lol:

 

[Elias710]

You come home for spring break with the beardies and buy 100 large crickets at the local exotic pet shop, and they are so noisy you cannot sleep with them in your room. Your dad, however, asks if you'll leave them downstairs because they help him sleep better. :shock: And then your mom walks by and says, "You might as well be camping."

True story. Happened last night.

When you find yourself wasting hours at work on this board (and others) and you watch beardie videos on YouTube... plus, you do more regular grocery shopping for your beardie than for yourself - and you KNOW that the dragon eats much healthier than you do!
