Bubs know almost every word to this song and sings like a king with them. T do you sing just wondering I know PJ does. PJ have you sang anything lately? I hope you boys are looking after one another.

[@dominikmolloy621]

Hey Brian I had an idea for you... instead of building enclosures with water features for all of your monitors why not build a separate aquatic enclosure just for swimming like Salt and peppers cage that you could let them swim in whenever you want maybe a couple times a week , you could also use it as time for training opportunities... let me know what you think 😌

[@C-24-Brandan]

That monitor lizard and the boa were absolutely stunning! Would be great additions to your facility!

I think it would be neater if you did a reptile nursery rather than an aquarium, but I am probably an unpopular opinion on that. I would also love to see you get an armadillo girdled lizard I think is what it is called? The little lizard that grabs its tail and curls up into a doughnut but also looks like a miniature dragon, I would LOVE to own one.
