England,
I think part of the reason we've been so chatty lately is that we've been trying to be distracting.
Nothing wrong with a good chatter. Breaks the boredom ?.
how are you anyway? Hope all is good. I’m just playing catch up. What’s this game you guys was playing ?

Yes.. this time was by far the worst and now it’s coupled by a development of acute glaucoma...his eye pressure (I’m sure there was a term for that) got up to 55 which is hospitalization time.. so we had to get that down. It’s better now. Monday was a crap day full of doctors. I feel so helpless that he has to go thru this and I know it has to be so painful. You can’t reverse the damage done by this, only try and control it. We go to his specialist today and if the inflammation is down enough, we should be able to tell the extent of it... which I pray is minimal.. all of this while trying to get my dad sorted out has honestly shook me... on the up side, Jayden is feeling much better despite all.. he’s a trooper... Being here in the CDR and diverting my mind has done a lot for me.

SOOO, let’s post some smack and be merry ?
They also need a kiss emoji to choose from. Big kisses and hugs. I am so glad that Jayden is feeling better though and he does sound like a real trooper. Very brave boy.

Well hell... that sucks to have to wait another day! So is sexing Geckos like sexing tortoises? I hate when you read the ads of breeders or dealers trying to lead people into believing they are getting females! I wish they would have sent you a picture cause I will believe that it’s pretty:)
LOL. yeah me too. But maybe surprises are good. Holding thumbs. I think they do need to be a little older than 3 months before you can see if it is male or female. The females are straight under their tails and the males have two bumps just under their tail where it meets their body.

Think about 6 months to a year before you can actually tell if male or female. But don’t quote me on that.

They should have a separate chat app or something so members can chill and natter. That would be cool. I’m aware they had an app before and it got removed. I’m still gutted over that one.
If they had a separate app then none of us would come on here to read the posts etc. We would be in the chat app all the time. Besides this is a chat thread. so it is seperated to a certain extent.

Another thing is sometimes the females can form a fatty a bulge and be mistaken for a male. I think it is around 6 months of age that you can tell if male or female tho.

I’ve had reptiles most of my life. Tortoise is a new one for me. But geckos. Dragons. chameleons. I’m on it ?.
ive been looking into getting another chameleon. I must be mad ?
Nope, not really. I understand completely. If my husband would allow it, i would most probably end up like Tom and have a dedicated reptile room full of reptiles.
