I am just wondering if I am alone when I say I have run out of room for any more cages. With 7 different style cages "just in my living room" the wife is becoming worried that I might not stop. I have over 20 different kinds of lizards plus,ducks,pot belly pigs,rabbits,chickens,salt & fresh water fish, not to mention the cricket tanks. Does anyone else think they have a habit of buying too many lizards?

I am the same way with my snakes heres a list below of what I have. I just bought some more boaphile cages and racks too. Soon a room will be filled with them. Recently my woman left me and I think the hobby had alot to do with it even though she kept snakes too. Hope your wife does not leave you.

0.1 desert striped cali king
1.1 western hognoses
2.2 ball pythons(normals they are still a favorite of mine amidst all the morphs)
2.1 high white cali kings
1.1 soon to be 2.2 jungle carpet pythons
2.2 lavender albino cali kings
0.0.1 spiny soft shell turtle

I have about 40 animals (albeit 12 are baby boas) in a small 2 bedroom apartment. They all used to be in a one bedroom prior to my baby boy arriving on the seen. Currently all the ponds, and tortoises, snakes, monitors ect are nicely stacked or otherwise arranged into a crammed "herp room" I have a few larger cages in the living room, which if limited in number, the wife is still "okay" with it. If in a house, I suggest owning the basement for the herps, and the wife can do whatever she wants upstairs. As for your mammals and birds, they're all snake food to me, but I'd suggest getting them outside acreage/farm style. They might enjoy that more too.
