The noise scared my lizard something frightful!
Everyone was okay and no one was badly injured. Except for a patch of my lilies. But they’re pretty resilient.
Loving all that natural light and those plants! Hey, quick BD question. Has yours ever pooped on its own back? My now deceased dragon, once pooped on his own back, and I have no idea how, but I’ve heard from others that they are messy poopers.
Their poop can be pretty nasty, to be sure. Never pooped on his own back directly, but he has done things like walk through it, or fall off his basking platform into it. It’s absolutely possible that your dragon fell into it while climbing.
To be fair, if he poops in his enclosure, my dragon will run away from it and frantically claw at the glass (also called glass-surfing) until I clean it up. He HATES having poop in his enclosure!
Ya, I wanted to run away from it too, so I don’t blame him lol
Yo what the fuck how did they end up doing that?!
Distracted driving & running a stop sign!
Well that’s fucking inexcusable isn’t it holy shit. Glad everyone was alright! Looks like a near miss for the ol’ house there bud
Adopt it
I try to leave nature in the wild where it belongs. 🙏
I wish we could reduce the natural habitat of those disgusting creatures
Same. Invasive species. Ick!
I hope you mean the car
I do lol
up close and personal like
Time to buy a boulder to go in front of the window
They’ll make a bigger car to drive over it
How much does a boulder go for nowadays?
I know a guy with a really nice boulder. Unfortunately it’s in the swamp.
I’m sure someone will find a way to drive right over / through them.
That’s one little chunky boy.
He puffed up at all the commotion! Gotta look big and scary at the big noise.
Glad you and your lizard are safe!
Thank you! We were pretty fortunate this time.
He just wanted to check out your lizard
There are better ways to do it that don’t involve a phone call to the police, I assure you!
It is important that the cops also know about this cool lizard I found
911 look at this dude 😎
That’s what the trees were for! But yeah, someone managed to dodge all that.
If this was a typical thing, I probably would, but I’m not too worried about repeat instances. I also am fortunate to have a crawlspace under my home, so they’d be hitting the bricks & rebar before they get to my windows.
However, with those larger stupid trucks I often see, neither a boulder nor a brick barrier would matter much.
I was eating at a restaurant one time with some people from out of town when a car drove past the window. Nobody really seemed to interested when I pointed it out until I also pointed out that there is not a road outside that window. The car had jumped the curb, threaded the needle between a stop sign and fire hydrant, and made it about 80 feet through the park before stopping. The cops were still dealing with the guy when I left the restaurant, he was clearly very inebriated.
Everybody is talking about the lizard but what about the dough (clay?) with the lamp directed at it??
that’s for the lizard? xD
That’s a flat rock used for basking! It’s supposed to be a bit more off-center from the heat lamp so that it doesn’t get too hot, but he loves to flatten out/pancake on a warm rock.
Awe :) you’re a good lizard owner. Just look at him looking up at you, like “is it okay to bask right now?”
Your kindness warms my heart. It means a lot to hear it be said. Thank you!
He’s a brave boy, and he got to watch the pretty lights of the police cars as they directed traffic, so he was pretty pleased.
Lizards are cold blooded so they typically warm themselves in the sun on some heated up rocks.
Was looking at your post and this crazy incident popped up on my phone: https://apnews.com/article/long-island-minivan-nail-salon-crash-5e9fc211611203204bc37f4a436ca9b7
Well
This makes me extra thankful.
Glad your scaly friend is OK!
Am I the only one who sees an alien trapped in your curtains?!
I looked quickly and that’s what the pattern looks like with the way your curtains fall 😅
I didn’t the first time, but I did after reading your comment.
I thought it looked like a stealthy power ranger
You okay? How many fingers am I holding up?
12? 😅 lol, it’s literally the first thing I saw
Bill their insurance for your lilies. Driving is a privilege and drivers should take responsibility for their mistakes while driving.
Considering the damage they did to the other car involved (you can see their trunk popped open behind the wannabe monster truck), I’m sure they’ll be paying in some way or another. They’re certainly not getting away with it without significant consequences!
I just had some grass & a few flowers torn up, so I’m very fortunate. Not looking to weaponize the system against them. Just want the folks who suffered the actual damages to get paid. Hopefully this teaches the distracted driver a valuable lesson!
You have to be happy for the little things in life like a car not smashing through your conservatory.
Have you given thanks that your home hasn’t been run into by a car today? 🙏
