You know you're a "geckoholic" when...

[bro paul]

I remember a thread like this a while back...it was fun :main_yes: Join in...


You know you're seriously addicted to geckos when...

- you're first Christmas card of the season comes from your cricket supplier.
- you make your children wear matching leopard gecko shirts.
- you begin planning your vacation 6 months out based on which show you plan to attend.

- (almost forgot this one...) you pay more for geckos each month than you do your vehicle.

- you start a "business" selling only enough offspring, to keep yourself going

:main_laugh: :main_thumbsup:

...or...
- you plannig your vacation after your breeding season
- you say "i never have time for me" but after 3 minutes you order a new geckos again
- your friend don't like caming for dinner into your house because if they take a beer in the fridge the beer is under a TOOOON of mealworms box
ahahahahah

 

[marula]

or
- you have in your house the same tropical season of malaisia (for keet your geckos cage temperature at the best condition, not because youlove hot )

I remember that thread. If I remember correctly I believe Felicia started it. We had a lot of good thoughts. Haha.

I'm guilty!

- You have more photos of geckos then family
- you spend most of your online time at Geckoforums.net
- You have a chair in your gecko room that you use at least once a day so can just sit back and watch them.
- You are always excited when someone actually shows interest in your geckos and then you must open every tub to introduce them to every single one of your geckos.

- You thought your first reptile show was more important than your first birthday.

Brandy OMG THOSE ARE SOO TRUE FOR ME! LOL

 

[eyelids]

- You forget your cousin's baby's due date, but know the due date for every clutch in the incubator.

I saw something similar in a gecko breeder website long time ago, but I don't remember the adress. What I remember is a sentence that made me laugh!

"All your neighbours try to exterminate roaches and worms... You breed them"

 

[Zbiz]

LOL

 

[marula]

- everytime,when you spend money,you start to think that: "oh my Go...! with the same price i can buy a toooon of geckos!"

 

[Kotsay1414]

-You spend more time on GeckoForums.net than you do studying during finals week.

LOL Good ones Guys & Gals. Yes Steve I did start a thread like this, on the other not to be named forum. LOL

Got some new ones......

The DEA raids your house, due to the unusually large consumption of electricity at your house, thinking you're growing pot.

Your UPS or FedEx delivery person knows it's feeders or geckos if you are at the sidewalk when he/she pulls up.

It's sad, but these last three are sooo true for me....

Your spouse hires an bug exterminator for the house, to kill the crickets that have escaped the herp room.

Your bug exterminator knows what rooms he CAN'T go into without being told.

You fight with your non-herper spouse, "SAYING NO WINTER IS NOT A GOOD TIME TO GET NEW WINDOWS IN THE HERP ROOM!" BTW, I lost this battle, and the windows were replace today, thank God, it was 60 degrees here and my space heater kept the room nice and warm.

BINGO!! That's so true! Brandy you're describing my personal life....LOL. Honestly, I just bought a new stool to put in my gecko room, so I could sit down and watch them!!

Here are my inputs:
- When you're always measuring the whole house with tape measure, figuring where else you could fit in some new tanks / racks.
- When you go shopping, every single thing that you see, you think hard whether it can be used on the geckos.
- When your family eats instant cereal, but your feeders eat expensive organic stuff.
- When you starts to believe your geckos are communicating with you...:alien:

 

[GeckoMandi]

LOL! All of these are great!

I'm guilty of lots of them!

The one where you want to talk about your geckos, when my friends come and say what's this or that I'm all mouth telling them! haha.

 

[PrototypeGeckos]

:stands up: Hello, my name is Shaun, and I am a geckoholic. lol

 

[Scott&Nikki]

one i'm guilt of right now..

Spend more time moving your eyes from geckoforums.com to the gecko tank than studying for finals you have the next two days.

 

[Scott&Nikki]

haha, didnt even look on page 2... guess mine was already taken

 

[bro paul]

These are hilarious! Only because I can relate to almost all of them
I remembered another one...this happened last week.

- your spouse makes you hire an electrician to put in a separate, dedicated power outlet so that the power quits going out in the house due to all the gecko racks! Sad, but true...I personally think it has something to do with all the Christmas lights...but she's probably right. Thankfully I had a good friend who did it for free
