I decided to make a foray into the world of......

LIZARDS!!! Yay!! I made a deal with everyone I know to shoot me on the spot if I ever bought a Leopard Gecko or Bearded Dragon so the next logical choice was.........

Yellow Ackies! I got 4 from Niagra Reptiles (Jon Kendrick) and they are the coolest thing. They are just like birds!! And soooo smart. Hands down the coolest lizards I have ever owned. I'm kicking myself for not getting any sooner!

Thanks Jon!

Cool. So that's what a yellow ackie is. I thought it was some kind of snake.

How smart are they?

They look pretty nice Jeff. Congrats, buddy!

Very nice. I love ackies. The only problem is they do bite and are very quick.

....

Its actually a pig tank that is used in the goldfish/koi industry. I work at a koi nursery so we have them TEMPORARILY setup in 2 of these. The wood cages are just waiting for the paint to dry. The cement tiles are the best thing about the cage. Its a modified "Retes stack" and it works great! Plywood can be used also though.
