This topic is very interesting, I think you could be right. The living room, does eventually become the reptile room. Just don't tell my O/H that.
She's already convinced that we are turning into a petting zoo.
Red123, your living room is like a reptile haven. It's amazing. I expect your elecy bill is very high though lol. But I guess that's irrelevant when you got such an amazing collection.
Kellogg, I'm loving your O/H handy work. He's done a great job and it all looks so neat and fits in well with your existing furniture. Although I do agree you should make some extra room behind your sofa for another viv lol  |

We are on a prepayment meter so I can tell you that we use between £20-£25 per week. Not bad considering the two boys virtually live on there game consoles and I run two big fridge freezers to accomodate all the frozen rodents. Will be adding a third chest freezer in soon to accommodate Aggies rabbits when she moves up to them. We did notice a difference when adding in ceramic heaters, heat mats cost next to nothing to run.
Oh and I can see two gaps under your vivs, naughty naughty, two extra vivs can be made out of them. That would be one really impressive stack. Your two vivs look amazing 
Smart bunny - Glad I am not the only one that hates empty space lol. And always sees it as potential viv stacks

Nice set ups, very jealous of everyone who is allowed to have their scaly friends in the living room.
Welshlamb, lovely vivs, though I think there's a criminal waste of space with so many little shelves underneath - unless, of course, they happen to be a future rack... |

That is my total dream room, but I had enough problems getting the other half to agree to one baby corn - fortunately he has seen the "light" and has admitted that she is the least demanding, least smelly and most fascinating pet we have ever had.
My girl currently lives in our bedroom to keep me company, he has no problems with that at all, though he might if I turned our bedroom into a reptile room! |

Hahaha Red 123, I thought I was bad till now!! I've only the cockatiel, 13 snakes, skink, milli's, frog, teeny sling and roach colony in my lounge. Although now I've had the boa for 7 months I'll be bringing him down as soon as I get another shelf sorted in the rack.
The leo is in my bedroom, I'm going to swap him round with the skinks as he's more sociable....and noisy. 4 of the T's are also in my bedroom and my son has his snake in his bedroom. |

I would love to say 'watch this space' but with my OH I don't think I can get away with it  . I'm so glad you started this thread Rachel because its interesting seeing how our snakes 'intrude' into our every-day lives .

| Hey, I just had a thought Kellog... how long are they away for? Plenty of time for you do do a bit of viv addition - they probably wouldn't even notice if they came back and there was a viv stack there instead... lol :P |

| Hey Kellog - smart bunny is right - and even if they'd notice, they'll be so full of news about their trip, they'll forget to grumble :-) |

You lot are an awful influence on me....I'm actually considering it ! The last time my daughter went overseas, to South Africa, she came home to find an extra viv in the lounge and a new snake. Don't think she'd talk to me ever again if I did a repeat performance .

She's probably secretly expecting another new addition to arrive while she is gone |
