Where Are Your Lizards?

I was working on the reptile bedding change today when a couple walked into the store, saw me, and were like "Where are your lizards?" 

..... *shakes head*
Like....I was standing right in front of them? The cages are rather hard to miss.
But at the same time.
People miss them all the time.
They don't realize that they're cages apparently?? I have no idea.
But yah, people don't always see the reptiles. *shakes head* 

So I was like *gestures to the wall of reptile cages* "Right here." 

The customers had come in to buy a lizard as a present for their nephew because he really wanted one. 
But they had no idea what all was entailed when it came to reptiles or which reptile would be the best.
Apparently the nephew wanted a chameleon...but those are pets that are better for people who've had more experience with easier reptiles. 
So I directed them to either a Leopard Gecko or a Bearded Dragon because those pets are easier and more mellow.

They ended up deciding on a leopard gecko as the pet of choice because it wouldn't need as large of a cage as the bearded dragon would.

*fingers crossed* that the boy likes his present. Hopefully the leopard gecko does well for him.
