GREAT job. It's awesome to see someone such as yourself take herp keeping to the next level! You should look into govt'. funding, hell they have grants for just about everything else out there nowadays. I enjoy your clips, as well as your knowledge on herps(ie. your answer to@ TOOL11212) KEEP THEM COMING!! thanks.

@debbi3d Thanks. I brought this video into my psychology teacher and she was also impressed. I really am interested in seeing what these animals are capable of!

Thats neat that you target train your lizard! I teach my lizards their name,so if they cant see me I can I can still call them and they will come to me,I have lots of videos

Hi, what species are known for being affectionate? I've only had an Eastern Collard and he was very affectionate and would come when I called him. I tried to post a video response of him here, but I don't know if it worked or not.

Thats awsome. I just bought my first tegu she is a 1 yr old female red argentine. i hope she trains easily.
