So........... Last night we had sloppy joes and tater tots for dinner. I was sitting in my recliner and had to get up to use the restroom, and while I was gone pixal scaled my couch, jumped onto the coffee table and proceeded to eat my sloppy joe! What a little turd!!! He didn't get to eat very much of it, be he was going at it like crazy. I took it away and he looked at me like "what the heck man, you just stole my sloppy joe". He was eating bun and all. Now mind you I took it away from him as soon as I discovered him doing it. Just a funny sight coming into your living room and there is a 3 ft tegu scarfing down you dinner........... _________________ 1.0 African Rock Python

you should of filmed that and send it to funniest home video.I wish I could of seen that.I found out that when I let Leonidas free roam while I'm spraying down his mulch and enclosure he gets in to the dog food.Today was the first time that Leonidas was free roaming in the yard without getting scared and trying to jump at me and bite me.He was behind a plant and he was scratching around so I looked to see what he was doing and as soon as I saw him he ate a acorn.I picked him up and put him in a different spot in the yard and he found a nother one but that one I took away from him.I'm just so happy that he isn't scared any more of being out side.Next time when you have dinner put a camera up before you leave the room again .Thanks for the funny story.

Thats really funny! Mine has the habit of picking up inedible objects. His most recent were: an orange lighter (used for candles), a tissue, and before that he grabbed half a tennis ball and shook it and wouldnt let me have it back. It was a fun game of tug of war. I have to make sure theres nothing on the floor before I let him out or he goes for it. He even bit the tape measure I was using to measure him. 40" BTW.
