Couple of things about that... first off, cool that that works for you. Two, do you work from home? I have the same "agreement" with my Cyclura, except he like to go about three times. So it goes like this. Turn on light and take him to the tub (where he goes like clockwork: he hits the porcelain and he dumps), leave for work. Get home, clean up poop in the hallway (we have hardwood floors) then when I hear him jump off his cage again (ALWAYS 5 minutes into dinner) take him again. He actually waits for me the third time, but if I take more than a 2 or 3 minutes, he figures he waited long enough, and goes right there. Good thing: his diet is now heavily weighted on the ZooMed pellets, so the fecal is harder, bad thing: he likes a lot of water (be cause he prefers the pellets dry) so it always comes with a nice squirt of urine.
