Do you have to get him out? I've let geckos live in my house before. They eat any creepy crawlies that are around. I would imagine that he can find his own way out if he really wants to.

Yeah, it's too bad you can't just keep him around... eats bugs.

If he's okay living indoors I don't have much of a problem with him. If I go to pee and find him in the toilet taking a drink though I'm going to freak out and probably run screaming from the bathroom.

Snakes are rather icky and snakes with legs I think fall into that category.

Can they climb on walls or anything that's going to freak customers out? I wonder if they eat or repel mice? Not much of a bug issue but we're in a pretty rural area and have mice problems every now and then.

People ask us if we let the dragons wander the house. We can't because we also have cats and the cats would LOVE new toys to play with.

Snakes and other reptiles can be quite fascinating if you get to know them!

They really can't climb flat/straight walls (like some other reps can such as geckos), but they can climb pipes, branches, etc.

They may be of some assistance on the mice, but they are probably limited on how big of a mouse they can catch. Rats would probably be too large for them.

Reading up on them a little, you may want to see if you can get him out of the building as there is a small potential for the lizard biting someone. They aren't poisonous, but their bite can leave a mark.

Sounds like the girls I dated in high school.

I thought you gave up dating high school girls once you turned 40?

I wasn't serious ;)

Whew! I knew you would comment on that one, I was afraid you would call me out on my use of a plural in my reply.

Kevy Baby 05-14-2009 03:27 PM

I was being polite.

But even singular, it is a stretch

I thought it was a good idea! But NA is right about the tails.
