Mine don't have ears per-se, they have holes in their heads.  Literally.  I'm sure they're ears of some sort - but you can shine a light on their heads and pretty much see through them.

The whitish Gecko is a bred-in color variant. My sister has 3 leopard geckos..had them for 10 years so far.

We currently have...

My wife's herpetarium includes 6 Anoles
x2 Bahama Anoles (1M, 1F)
x4 Green Anoles( 2M, 2F)

My son has 3 other Herpetariums

1 tank with X1 Crotaphytus collaris (eastern collard lizard)
1 tank with x1 Crotaphytus Bicintores (Mojave desert collard lizard) and x2 Elgaria multicarinata
(southern alligator lizards)-- one is 15 inches :o!
1 tank with x1 Eumeces skiltonianus(Western Skink) + 3 tree frogs(but they don't really count to mention since this is a reptile thread).

The collard lizards are known to live a long time as well...my son has kept one of the collard lizards plus the alligator lizards for 3+ years now.

This sticker is dangerous and inconvenient, but I do love Fig Newtons.

You truly are an idiot I guess. You don't know my family to be making classless jokes about them >:(. Back to gradeschool for you I guess, what a moron you are.

Tell the truth, now....you're that guy who starts fights in titty bars aren't you?

My valtrex post had nothing whatsoever to do with you.  It had to do your choice of a silly word when a less silly one would have sufficed.  If I'd have said I took my kids out for a nice pupu platter, I'd have expected a silly joke too.  In fact, if I'd have said that, it would likely have been to intentionally play straight man for someone else to pick up the joke.

I didn't find your 'joke' funny, only offensive as I already expressed-no matter how you try to explain or pretend otherwise to make you look good. Cut the bull**** trolling now. If you have something to add about the topic..IE having reptiles as pets then do it, cut the derailments here and troll on some other thread. I can think of another place where you can go to start ****....

You'll need a thicker skin to survive in this joint.  That was a minor quip over the word herpeterium, not a shot at your family.

Relax.

That sounds cool, David.  There was a mantis in our backyard last year, but the kids weren't around to see it.  I'm hoping I see more this year.

As for your "problem"...

I sense we need a pharmaceutical thread here.

Any how, I used to own a 6' python.
