He is good with hand feeding and being near my hands. Thank goodness for captivity bred. Yes I didnt want to get him stuck on just one food. He is eating good and has a full little belly after...lol. So I'm introducing new foods all the time.

Have you noticed much growth in him yet?

Also, I can't remember if your previous BGK came out in the daylight, but how's this one doing with light? It's my opinion that if you condition them to light early, they will come out at all times of day. I was wondering if you are noticing anything like that. Sounds like yours comes out a lot to eat!

wow munroser...17 years old. how big is it?
Sorry to take so long to reply. I keep saying that he's about 12" but my significant other says if that's all I see then I'm more blind than the BGK. :( I guess he's about 14". There's a picture of him in the gallery under my avitar. I am not the one who does all the maintenance etc...I am just the one that plays with him. He's only been in my life for a couple of years...came with the male counterpart...but I adore him.
