New addition :d
Haha after years of not having a Tokay ive finally GOT ONE!  unfortunately she is WC, i got her from one of the local pet store ALLIGATOR ALLEY and was the healthiest one i saw (this is my fave herp store) she is currently in a horizontal 20 gallon tub but will be getting a bigger viv hopefully within the next month, so for this time being im am going to get rid of the mites i assume she has since she is imported ( i havnt seen any but you know how that goes, none the less im treating her) and will later on house her with a male which i still am longing to get, anyways i really dont have any good pictures since she has the good ole fashioned (defensive) Tokay charm  ive had her for 2 days now and she has only eaten 2 crickets but i also know how this goes and am giving her time to settle in but here she is!
and by the way that is not tape she is holding onto it is on the outside of the container so she wouldnt freak out on the car ride home and that is only the container i brought her in

And her tokay charm

this pic was as i was moving her from the caring container to the setup.
Yep i had to put a mitten on cause she bit me multiple times and tore my skin as well  but its all good im sure if was about to be grabbed too i would bite lol (especially by a mitten) but i LOVE HER she surprisingly is out a lot, also i am assuming she is still young im estimating 10 months to a year, she is 7-8 inches long and is kinda thin but is still healthy i will fatten her up in no time (not seriously i dont want an obese GECKO) but there ya go SHE IS GORGEOUS hope yall like her too.
I will post more pics soon, whenever i get some good ones.

haha juvies are definitely easier to tame, but adults arent too hard either it just takes a while, and maybe a few scars...

HA! I love your choice of tokay handling gloves!! A mouth full of fuzz is enough to deter even the angriest of tokays!
I use gardening gloves, they work great! I've been bitten pretty hard by some foster tokays, and the gloves worked fantastically.
