    Other than i fully agree with you!




    **** on that note, i decided to give Gigs a break from all the activity over the last week and fed him in his tank. He was way up curled under the heat spurce so i gently grabbed him to bring him down to the bottom of his tank.. there was no argument, no pee, no tryi g to run away today! Then i geny put crickets in and he went crazy happy! Lol filled himself up and literally attacked the first cricket in just as i let him go off the tongue twizzer thing. Lolt was a great success! The whole time i made sure he saw and ate all the crickets. Never ran away or backed up scared Will keep this up for the next few days till the cleaning day.

    All for the of our friends!

    I'm glad things went so much better with Gigs. If nothing happens to frighten him he should gradually learn that your are the source of those loverly dinners and be eager to see you at feeding time and not be afraid. I'm finding that sHEila and Jelly Bean are like that, and have always been so for the most part Shirley, like sHEila and Jelly, has always been calmer, but Sir Honey has always been flighty and jumpy and spooky from the get go-- but I knew that from day 1 before I bought him. I knew what to expect, I knew he might never calm down completely, if at all, but I admired his energy and sassy ways, so bought him for those qualities rather than in spite of them. Honey doesn't seem terrified, he doesn't run and hide for the most part, or cower away, but he's determined to fly out of that tank someday, because that's the way he is, lol. I know what to expect and I act accordingly to keep him safe.

    Good luck with Gigs! Looking forward to hearing more updates on the little guy!
