    how much do you handle or spend time with your reptiles?

    Hi there just a thought, I understand breeders with large collections don't always handle or spend time with each of their reptiles but this question is more for people who have a moderate sized collection (just for the enjoyment of owning and looking after reptiles). My question is this. How...
