I was under the impression that olives are about as docile as ball pythons. David, great choice.

Babies "CAN" be nippy, but a lot of them aren't. They also tame down very very well as adults.

He is very human friendly. Present a food item he is not into and you will get owned. The downside is there is only one real look to olives. It really hurt not to get another green tree, but this guy is just as cool as all the other critters who reside here. This is the only animal I have thought about going outside of Morelia for. I actually planned on sticking strictly to chondros, but then I saw this little one! I really could not be more happy with him.
DBD, unfortunately there is not a ton of information out there about them. You will find basic stuff, but if you have problems it's best to talk to the breeder. Nick has 14 years experience with these guys, he's by my first call if I had an issue. Heat is high (for the chondro people anyways) 86-low/mid 90's is what I have my guy at in a 66qt tub. It's pretty big for him and he's always over the heat. It's super humid all year in Alabama (55-65) so misting is not important. Babies enjoy to climb and all ages love to hide.
Thanks for all the comments guys. I took my designers out other day for a photo shoot as well.
