well he never handeled the thing after it bit him which was like a year ago. I have a few questions that could result in me getting it or not
1) whats the possibility of getting a disease like salmanilla from it?
Very low, IDK if they could even give you disease
2) are they poisonous if i do get bit?
Nope, I've heard it barely hurts
3) does their enclosure ever smell?
As long as you clean it every once in a while it won't smell
4) when do I clean the enclosure?
Whenever they poop :)
5) what do i feed it? like superworms mealworms vegggies?
Crickets or mealworms
6) how expensive would it be to run its setup? heat lamp ect
They don't need a heat lamp, a UTH would be fine. Mine was like $20
7) would i be able to handle it?
Yup, work with it every day

:D

I have never kept one befor but it could be an interesting experiance.
You wont regret, I have been keeping herps close to 20 years now, keeping leos since a copple of years ago and they are FUN to keep:D
 
I had a leo that was actually aggressive. I gave it away for that reason because I was young and didn't know how to handle that. But the next owner calmed him down quite quickly with just gentle handling and being patient. Alot of patience is the key to everything animal related. Take it and even if it continues to be aggressive atleast you know that you are giving it a good home....
 
One of my geckos when I got him at the pet store was agressive has hell, actualy he gave me a "raptor from jurassic park" roar I will never forget :ROFL:He never did that again and as soon as I arrived home he was puppy dog as it remains like to this day. Should be kind of fun having a permanently agressive one
