I know reef fish aren't our only animals!

I figure most of us probably have dogs, cats, birds, freshwater fish, reptiles, small mammals or something of that sort! Lets share some of our other pets!

Lol all but the snake and the baby gecko I've had for a while. Typically each animal gets certain days of the week for cleaning and "playtime". Except the big hermit crab. Hes a jerk. The others are nice lol

I finally gave up all my tanks and fish at the high school and officially donated them and probably wont be returning there to volunteer anymore. So now I only have 4 fish tanks at home! Lol but 8 tanks counting reptiles and crabs

Eddie is not technically ours as she's a free roaming deer but ever since she got hit by a car out front she lives in our yard and we feed her and play with her every day.

It wasn't easy to get them to sit still for a pic

This is our chinese water dragon. Don't know if it's male or female, but my daughter decided to name it Sofia. Haha. We've had her for over two years.

Our cat Alfie. We've had him for just under a year. We adopted him at your store Makena. [emoji4]

Hey JGon,

I believe yours is female. At two years the males should have a tall crest on the back of the neck and the spikes will be longer going down the body. The males will also have a wide triangular head instead of the narrow female head. You should see white pores on the underside of the back legs in a female. You might have to Google what they look like to see. I hope this helps!

I've heard different things from herp shops. Females will lay eggs even without a mate. Mine hasn't. So they said it's a male. Then they said males don't always have those features you described. I've always thought it was a female since we got her. I mean she looks like a female. That's why my little girl named her Sofia. Lol. I tried looking under her legs too and she won't let me.

As I understand it, juveniles look like females until they are 1.5 - 2 years old. Around this time they start to display sexual traits. That's why pet shops can't accurately tell the difference. I'm not sure when they start laying eggs, but I do know that females have additional care requirements for good health. I stopped working with reptiles in 2000, so I don't remember everything, but it may be worth looking up.

Very cool Makena! You have quite the zoo going there! The neighbors have a bearded dragon and a couple of geckos, but none as colorful as yours.

All I have is this guy:
