    Holy Leaping Poirot! Apart from the Agamids, I have 3 skinks and 2 huge monitor lizards that visit my orchid house regularly. With all the super fertilisers used on the orchid plants - hey- there's a real possibility of a Jurassic Park scenario here!! Time to put up the electrified fence. LOL

    Just be careful of which side of the fence you're on when you flip the switch.
