That is hilarious!!! My dragon poo is almost that big!!! But stinks to high heaven!!! It only snows when they shed at the same time

Yeah, and I'll say in my defense that the Columbian boa belongs to Megan's son. Not me. In all seriousness, though, I can't imagine doing all this if she wasn't 100% into it. Although, I can't begin to count how many times I've heard, "Ok, now we REALLY have enough!"

Haha!! I hear that from my husband a lot. I keep telling him, then we need more room!! He's not buying that tho......he may have seen my wish list????

[Lovereps]

Thanks Chuck and Ryan!

Now I have an affirmative defense when my husband tells me that another chameleon would be too many
Of course, he's a great guy and he only makes half-hearted attempts to keep me from ending up with a home zoo.
He just says, "You've got to be kidding."--followed by a purchase.
FWIW, if your animals are healthy, well-fed and in clean environments, then I don't believe it is hoarding.

We only have:

2.0 Kinyongia multituberculata
1.1 C. jacksonii xantholophus
4.0 Bearded dragons

I'm not going to get specific, because I don't want to be on anyone's stupid hoarding show. Suffice to say, we have many and varied mammals; birds and reptiles too. Oh yeah, and a husband. He pays for all the critters!

You are the light in dark

As long as the animals are well cared for and you have the finical and mental stability to take care of them all I don't see a problem with having as many as you want, or as many as is legal

1 Veiled,male
3 syrian hamsters, all female
1 miniature schnauzer,male

That's about my finical and mental capacity.
My hands are full enough now, but I would love more additions : P
