I saw this on a different forum and it entertained me for ages with ppl's funny storys of what they do , I'll start it..
You kno your a herp keeper when you take ur sister to look @ hamsters and she's saying how cute they are , but ur thinking "one day my snake will eat that"
You kno ur a herp keeper when u crawl on ur hands and knee's across the living room edging up to a viv to catch a glimpse of ur shy royal" |

I do the first one all the time when I am at the pet shop, everyone is saying, Aww look at those nice bunnies and I am thinking, yes, but would look even better with its head in the mouth of my pet :) |

LOL - nice thread!
You know you're a herp keeper when your tiny Victorian terraced house, full of old furniture and bric-a-brac, gets made over to accommodate numerous vivs (NOT in keeping with the intended ambience.)
You also know you're a herp keeper when your bedroom becomes the main rep room, and the snakes graciously grant you a couple of chests of drawers and a bed in the corner (which the cats allow you to share.)

LOL - that's how you know your OH's a herp keeper too!
You also know you're a herp keeper when your collection of different sizes of frozen rodents gets so large that the main household freezer has to be devoted to it. The little tabletop thing upstairs will hold a few packs of frozen veggies ... and NO PIZZA!
