I meant interesting in how its so handleable,do you think they wore it out in a bad way?

I think that sort of ruins the Tokay's appeal to me. If it was captive bred and just grew up like that, fair enough, but if it's been handled so much that it no longer bothers, I think that's not really proper keeping.

i dont think they wore it out. i use to work at a store a few yrs ago and this lady brought in a monster tokay that was handable. was awesome. speaking of tokays, i went to the tinley park show last oct and nerd brought out their tokay morphs. if you havent seen the mporphs then go check out their site!!!

That looks to be a fine healthy specimen.


Personally I see nothing wrong in taking the time/dedication to tame an animal.

If you get a baby they can get like that, but it takes lots of work.
