PEOPLE ON YAHOO ANSWERS DO NOT READ OTL
http://tinyurl.com/7qonug4


I didn't anywhere say I'm trying to handle them. I'm trying to tweezer feed them; to //try// and gain their trust.

I never said tame them

Gain trust =/= Trying to grab them like an idiot

I EVEN SAID AFTER "NOTE", If I can never handle them, then fine.

I just want them to trust me, incase their is an emergency and I need to grab them.

It's like the people just read the title and were too lazy to read the rest OTL

Well, no offense, but it's Yahoo Answers, what did you expect. xD There's like 1 out of 10 answers that's decent.

Nah, on the serious note, I think you are on the right tracks. I think all you need is time for the male to get used to tweezers and understanding they aren't a threat and are safe.

And I think that shirt grabbing method is rather counterproductive. -.-

If they bite me, oh well.

I'd rather them bite my hand, and know a hands for being held, than have to wear gloves every single time or risk bitten

Shirt grabbing?
If there another answer?
I may just close it OTL

Yeah, I guess it's the process of taming them.

I have very little experiences with reptiles, I mostly just fed my partner's Corn snake couple of times. xD

Nah, it's included in a long copy-pasted answer. Well, no harm in keeping it up, there might be actually sane person stumbling upon it.

But I think this answer is most thoughtful one ever.
"tokay gecko!!!!!! and he will be like who is that!! and then you will be like its your friend!! *soap opra music*" -.-

@cafe Yahoo Answers, like 99% of the internet, is full of trolls and people who don't actually know what they are talking about. If you want a real answer I suggest looking around for a forum that is specifically for owners/lovers of various reptiles/lizards and ask there. You'll get answers from people who actually know what they are talking about.

@cafe

I agree with orderedchaos. There are plenty of reptile lover forums and sites, they are worth checking out. 😊

Haha, yeah.


I think I made account ages ago but it's probably purged. I will go check it out, actually.
