Yes,
I handle him daily. The first time I held him, he opened his mouth for a few seconds, and then closed it. I handle him after I mist his tank each evening, after which, I give him some crickets.
He's very content to rest on my arm for minutes at a time. When I try to put him back in his enclosure he doesn't seem to wanna go in.
I've NEVER seen a petshop tokay or a wild caught one, so I've never witnessed the 'aggresiveness' as others state.
Maybe I just don't know any better!!! LOL! Oh yeah,
Thanks everyone for the compliments! _________________ "As a young man I started with almost nothing. I still have most of it." |
