I have a chameleon and I'm over it. She's an **** and she doesn't like to be touched. She hisses at you and bites you. I've been putting up with her because I adopted her and I hate rehoming animals but tbh she hates me just as much as I hate her. She hates everyone and she won't give a damn who has her so ftb. I don't even care. Yeah I said it. Idfc. Email me telling me how selfish I am and guess what I still won't care.
I don't have any pictures. I'll take one from outside the terrarium if anyone wants to see her but I'm not trying to pick her up. She gets pissed, I get pissed, it's bad for everyone. She also eats a **** lot. Only crickets. She's too good for greens and worms.
Come get the stuck up ****. She's free but I'm not giving away the terrarium. It's dope and some lizard with a half decent personality will appreciate it. It's too good for her anyway. Bring a goddamn butter bowl.

LOL. Makes me happy for our 4 crested geckos, who are quite sweet (and eat not only crickets, but fruit and their CGD (crested gecko diet) 'mush' as well.

Good laugh there, Tony.

Re: the geckos - you can handle them and they don't try to run away?!?

Yea try to handle Tokay geckos then get back to me. At almost 12-14" they will bite the snot out of you. I had a large male from birth no matter how much we handled him at a certain point they get mean and did i mention fast as lightning.

That CL ad is funny

Love your pic of that HAPPY Crested Gecko !

That's a poster size candidate.

They're very handle-able (Cresties are; Tokays are "no-kay" as Ivan points out above). They don't *love* to be handled like a cat or dog likes to be pet, but they're compliant enough. My boys have them out quite a bit, meaning every day.

That's Cheesy (named by her then-9-year-old owner Andrew). I believe in that picture she was drinking water from the pictured bowl on our dining room table--they lift their heads I assume to help with the swallowing process and that picture was the result. Andrew agrees with your poster recommendation, he requested it printed onto his last birthday cake--how could we say no?

That pic reminds me of the Egyptian Hieroglyphs of joined animals and humans too. It's funny that pic seems to have originated in the desert too.
I still wonder why the Egyptians carved and painted sooooo many hybrid beings ..everywhere .

Great photo-cropping though. Yea, most camels are docile, but NOT that one !

Because those hybrids were common on their home planet.

Mercury was the heavy metal of choice in a few civilizations back then.

Maybe a little of both and some unobtainium thrown into the mix.

Mercury for the UFO's Electronic circuit board conductor material..

I've never seen an Egyptian driving a Mercury, but I did know an Egyptian and she was quite the cougar.
