Conversation with my mom about holiday visits 😂

[summerseeking]

Me: Hey mom I'm trying to figure out the best plan for visits. I think you should fly to California. With my reptiles being so young, it's hard to leave right now. Let's look at tickets.

My mom: I was wondering what you were going to do with the Chameleons because I have been doing my research...and also are you making sure to give them their vitamins and supplements because those are important. I also read that their food can have parasites on them if you aren't careful...where are you getting the food from? I agree you can't leave them for a long time. They are too young and they need to eat every day right now.

Me:.....oh wow...mom... you have done your research...

I then gave her a rundown of my whole setup and she said...

Mom: Nice, it sounds like you're doing a good job

lol

My mom was disappointed she she couldnt feed the turkey guts to the tegu for thanksgiving.

Sorry mom, the tegu is brumating till feb/march...

My mom’s great with all the animals, calls my male cham handsome, etc.

My dad still thinks my tiger salamander is a lizard.

My grandparents love all my critters. My one grandma said my reptile room smells "really interesting" and that it "feels great". It's basically a jungle in there.

You know what that's "code" for, right?

I'm lucky too - both my mom and my mother-in-law like my chams. My mom always wants to watch me feed them and loves when they are out free-ranging on the lanai with her.

Ooh, Ooh... You need to tell her... for the 'ultimate free-ranging chameleon experience,' she needs to hold a live roach in her teeth for the chameleon to strike at and munch on!
