    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

You know your a Gecko lover when......

Ah yes.. I almost forgot...

...you make up rules about how to name new leos!!! (A-Z, State Capitals...) :)

BTW, Robin - we've already got a name picked out for the new leo that we can't seem to get our hands LoL

She shall be Providence (yeah, you guessed it - the capital of Rhode Island...) :):):)

hehe This is better than proving that I'm a redneck!! :D:D

My gecko that did a vanishing act her first day here, Amelia, and her copilot Fred.

Mork and Mindy.


I wish I didn't think of so many names for pairs. I buy too many males as a result!

Oh yeah, Mork turned out to be female, so I have Morklings... Morkana, Morkalina, Morkette, Morkus.. etc... Yeah I really love Mork.
 
Here's one I have done,

You know you're a gecko lover.....

When you buy your girlfriend a gecko for Valentines day hoping she will let you breed it with your nice looking male.

Matt
 
Your a Nut when!

Your Giving a Public Discourse on the Origin of the different Racial Characteristics found in the world today and, you refer to people reproducing as BREEDING!!!

The audience was only around 80 people! I almost DIED!!! Fortunately I made a complete recovery and the majority thought it was most Humorous!
 
anime....

Overton, anime is japanese animation....how does one not know what anime is...i think i'm going to pass out now.
 
when you get up an extra hour early in the morning to view this forum because you know your day will be too busy and you may not get to check it again till tomorrow...

when you're the only one on this forum because it's too early in the morning...

when one of your sons first words is gecko...actually he says "gieco", but I know what he means:D

when neighborhood kids are waiting for you to get home so they can "see your lizards"...

when there are some stories that I'm even too embarrassed to share here about how obsessed I've become ;)

btw, ya'll are hilarious...but I can totally relate
 
You know your a gecko lover when......

You wake up in the morning and your wife say's do you wan't eggs for breakfast?
And you jump up from your chair and excaim "eggs"

your friends say, listen? can you hear the birds singing, and you say "BIRDS?"...those arn't birds......are they? shhhhhh.........

your looking thru a baby name book for your newest baby!
 
You know you are a Leo lover when you see a roach run across the living room and you dive off the sofa to catch it and put it back in the breeding tank before your fiance can smush it with his foot...or before he realizes that even one is loose....and has a hissy fit.

You know you are a Leo lover when that house salad your fiance got with his diner goes home in a doggie bag to feed the bugs...

You know you are a Leo lover when you go to work and realize you still have gunk under your nails from digging and looking for eggs...

You know you are a Leo lover when you are considering getting another cat just to hunt down the loose crickets under the fridge that chirp all night long...

You know you are a Leo lover when you start feeding your other pets mealworms and waxworms and consider dropping some crickets just to see if they would eat them...

Here is my favorite...
You know you are a Leo lover when you stop by Chi-chi's with your best friend and because it is cold out you put the bag of crickets in your purse, and she puts the mealworms in hers and you think nothing of it when they chirp and everyone looks at you...(But you do think of how easy it would be to get a free meal if you let them loose).....and then you take home the lettuce they use as decoration for the crickets....

And here I thought I was the only one who had escapee crickets all through the house.

LOL I can sympathize with that one, for sure!!! I give them to my hamsters and my mice - they LOVE them!!! (I have some fat mice, too, lol) :):):)

heh.. sorry I have to add another one :)

You know you're a gecko lover when you find yourself calculating costs for mealworms before costs for diapers & people food... :)

~~Dusty Windom
 
...when 220 co-workers refer to you as "Lizard Man" and someone calls and asks for you by name and they say "there's nobody here by that name." ...when you buy a juicer so you can get healthy but you really want the pulp to feed your crickets and roaches ...when your family is saying "when is dinner?" and you say "in a few minutes, I'm feeding the lizards".
 
Oh yeah, when you watch Fear Factor and they dump a ton of superworms and hissers on them and they scream and you say "What a bunch of pussies."
 
....how about when you get a bigger place so the "collection" can have their own bathroom. (BTW...the herp bathroom is usually cleaner than MY bathroom!) :rolleyes:
 
...when people ask how many you have, and you have to give them a ballpark estimate :dgrin:
