Re: Esmeralda - Bayonnaise Leachie
Ezzy is doing great. She continues to try to kill me when I go in the tank, but I use the welders gloves and if need be just remove the wood or perch she's on. Once picked up or removed from the tank, she calms right down.
However, if you are planning on getting a Leachie, remember, their motto is, "I MUST PROTECT THIS HOUSE!"
"Dad, leave me alone, I am shy and I WANT TO EAT MY DINNER"

Too bad you can't train them to protect YOUR house...I can just "see it"!
And they'd get fed easily, 'cause how many intruders would even know what a Leachie is, even if you had a sign warning "Premises protected by an attack Leachie!"

Re: Esmeralda - Bayonnaise Leachie
Two videos of Ezzy.
Going back into her tank after I cleaned it.
Eating her dinner. That is NOT slow motion.

She didn't half thump going back in, lol, she's seems pretty solid
I guess she wants to savour every moment of her food, lucking it that slowly
Really is so cute

Re: Esmeralda - Bayonnaise Leachie
Haven't posted about Ezzy in a long time. She's doing great and still wants to kill me when I go in her tank, but is fine once out. She loves to chirp and talk, usually discontent, but she's worth the trouble . Everyone loves her unique look and she's easy peasy to feed to boot. She's been hanging around 200G +/- 5G for a while now.
I am giving her leapin' leachies food, which Ferry loves, but she won't touch it unless I put pangea in. I prefer the stuff formulated for her, but she's stubborn. At least she's getting 50-60% of the good stuff mixed in.
For others with Rhacodactylus, it's worth looking at the food Steve makes. I bought both Ferry and Ezzy from him and he really knows his stuff.

Here's Ezzy!

I'm so glad to know you're still on her "hit list". Nothing like a pet with a "good appetite" & no shortage of moxy.

I'd be worried about Ezzy if she didn't try to, "Defend This House," every time I went to pick her up. It means she feels happy and safe in her enclosure and wants to protect it. The day she climbs on my hand like Ferry is the day I get concerned.

Yeah, Ferry too, perfect camouflage. Could you imagine with foliage too?
Interestingly enough, at least here in the states, it's not super easy, or cheap, to find them either. The females only produce a few eggs a couple times a year, if that, and can be very picky about a mate. I've heard of breeders trying 10 males before the female accepts the courting.
