And he is here!!

Got the little super reduced reticulated Gila home and letting him explore. He is all over and never even hissed at me. Going to offer him a pinky later. Guy is a lot smaller than I thought. He's about 10 weeks old born on Oct 27th 18. I'm so happy. My other huge want since I was kid next to gtps.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...baadda0e9c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d919c76613.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...98fe07a9e3.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9fe02295a7.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1d9d9f73ef.jpg

Aw, he's so CUTE! (oops, am I supposed to feel terror? lol...) It will be fun to watch him grow up.

Adorable but deadly

Absolutely awesome choice! I’m super jealous!

Nice Sauzo. Very cute.

I bet you just want to squeeze his cheeks and give him a big old smack-r-roo on the lips!

However, even if you want to. Don't. Don't do that.

A pinkie sounds like a great idea though. He will probably enjoy that more. In fact, you will both enjoy that more.

All kidding aside, enjoy him. He's awesome!

He sure looks just like a little dinosaur, but yeah, no lip-locks! :colbert:

And a milestone is down!! He ate his first f/t pinky...and i think he wants a second one as he is patrolling around his log where i fed him the first one lol.

He is awesome...and too cute for words! Great new addition. :D

Ha HAAAA!

Pic #1!! What a little scrapper!

Looks confident and ready for action.

Nice pickup man!

If he was MY pet, I'd have to rig up a button I could push when company comes over that plays a recording that makes it appear he's letting out a roar! :rofl:
(see how many bolt for the door...)

YEEEEEEEESSSSSSS!!!
Congrats dude!

Nah, the beaded clutch isnt hatching until end of this month or so and its from a different breeder who is known more for beaded. The Gila came from Steve Angeli who is one of the big 3 breeders for gilas along with Pro Breeders and Doc Seward. Steve also has a clutch of endangered beadeds from legally imported adults coming this May which he is taking deposits on.

How bad do their bites hurt?

OMG nice and congrats!!!

That is beaut !

I was told imagine slamming your hand in a car door and then put it in a fire.

I would have guesse slamming you hand in a car door, then putting it in a fire, and then pouring lye on it.

So, in comparison, your description doesn't sound half bad.

For the record, I'd still avoid a bite at all costs if I could. No reason to test out the two theories.

Gilas get about 1.5-2 feet. Mexican beaded get about 3 feet. Couple more pics of him after his dinner looking for more lol.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...38903706c1.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...977f89a2c5.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9e37b90adf.jpg

Came home to little Gila relaxing with stretch back arms in a little pit he dug.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...e0873dd0fd.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1d941b0009.jpg

That's one beautiful fierce critter. Amazing pick up! :bow:

He is SO cute, but after your description of a bite and the video clip that was shared, I think I’ll stick with photos. :weirdface Here’s hoping you never get first hand experience.

So what’s the boy’s name? I’m stoked for you!

Thanks. I'm pretty excited too. Haven't thought up a name yet for him.

Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Funny part also is if he is hiding, I just have to unlock the cage and slide a door open and he will pop his head out from where he is hiding to see what's up. Makes finding him pretty easy.

Wow! Thats a big step... Congrats on finally getting your little monster. I'm curious though, do you have a walk-in closet to give him when he gets bigger!! :P

Actually i was told he can live in an AP T10 4x2 cage his whole life although i will probably get him a 5x3 or 6x3 when he is an adult.
