My wife is similar - she just about tolerates the tortoises because they go in the garden in the Summer. I wanted a Gecko but I was'nt allowed one on the basis 'they look miserable in vivariums'
& I have to put up with her flatulent, gormless greyhound. |

yeah, stick a 100000 cb tokays back, they would be fine.....disease and worms etc might be a problem

I am so making a little house for my crestie with little curtains <_< He would 'LOVE' it -snort- I do however have somehting to say on keeping birds D: I think unless you are actually going to provide space so it CAN fly you should not have them. They are smart D: And get so bored ; ; There was a cockatoo doing his nut at the store near us I don't think the macaw would even be able to spread his wings in the width..

just my 2p worth, but comparing the lifespan of lets say a wild beardie to a captive one
are they any better in the wild sure we remove alot of things that they require from the wild suce as intensive heat, a copetition for food and incredibly high UVB levels, but also remove things suce as risk of impaction, localised predators, food shortages. I for one belive that even though keeping "Wild" animals can be considered wrong, it firmly falls into 2 seperate camps , with no one sitting on the fence. im fine with keeping them , as long as they are cared for with love and devotion.

Myself personally, I don't agree with keeping Wild caught animals, unless, they were trying to bred to create a Captive collection for the better of the species. But Captive Bred I have no problem with, they were born into captivity, and will leave in captivity. IMO, Leopard gecko's, Cornsnakes and other common reptiles are almost as domesticated as dogs, period. And again, with keeping birds its abit eeky with me
, i have no problem with Budgies and cockatiels as they have been in the pet trade and captivity for so long, i see them as 'pets' aslong as their needs are met. But when it comes to magnifficent birds like the Macaw, i strongly agree they shouldn't be kept in cages and should have a huge aviary were they can fly. just my opinion.
