Do more research... i can tell you havent because if you looked at even just one, you would know that they will try to bite if you reach your hand in the cage... do a little more research and ask some questions first...

That was pretty rude of you Brien. If you can’t answer a simple question nicely then don’t answer at all.

Well I little background research first is easier and quicker than posting the questions and waiting for responses.

One of the first things you’ll see is that they’re aggressive and territorial.

Anyways, you’ll also see that many people have been able to tame them. Take a look at some of photos here.

I can pretty stroke the back of my tokay about three times when its decided its had enough and will walk off or turn its head towards my hand, at which point - I take it as a message that "my head is in perfect position to strike you if you touch me again"

So then I’ll stop. Or it will turn its head towards its hiding space and kinda just saunter off.

I wasn’t trying to be mean...I’m sorry. I’ve just been a little angry the past few weeks... I meant that you should just do a search in google "tokay gecko care". You will see a lot...
