    Congrats
    They both look nice, although I'm partial to Jungles.

    Thanks! Yeah, we're REALLY hopin we can get through his life without him droppin his tail cuz we LOVE it. We're gonna be exxxxxtra careful with him and he's probably going to be off limits to the children unless he calms down when he gets a bit older and bigger.

    She's super chill and I will feel comfortable with the kids holding her once she settles in.

    Both of them are beautiful!

    If you want to make sure you keep that tail, always keep her over a table while handling. I have a "spazzy" female that will decide when she doesn't want to be held and he'll take off. If you grab her body, you'll get bit. I've stopped cleaning her tub out in my kitchen since I have a tile floor. I really don't want her to drop her tail either.

    Their bites are no fun. I still have a scar to prove it. Good luck with the breeding next season. My season this year has sucked.

    Yikes! I was unaware they bit haha. Oh well. We'll see what I get bit by first -- the snakes or the geckos.

    Yeah I'm gonna be super careful with him, but I think he'll calm down quite a bit. *crosses fingers*

    Sorry your breeding season sucked! Mine did with the BP's too. My girl had 4 slugs and one good egg, but that one egg is a cute lil girl!

    I've been bitten by my snakes a few times now. I'll take a snake bite over a gecko bite!

    Unfortunately, my last bite was from having to force-feed a reluctant female.


    Doesn't look like much, but it hurt more than any of my snake bites and you can still see the mouth impression to this day. I got a "chewy" bite the other morning on my knuckle. She didn't want to let go....I wish she'd just start eating normally!
