Default New male Tokay...

Just got this guy today. He's an "emerald green". Nice green background with really bright blue spots showing through. He's a wc import, so he's thin and going to take some fattening up. But he seems otherwise healthy.

Beautiful Tokay in rough shape. Glad he's in your capable hands. Post an "after" pic when he's a fat monster tokay!

Here he is a little more than 2 months later. He eats like a pig and has gained a ton of weight. He's showing his darker colors in this pic (he wasn't too happy about me pulling him out from behind his rock). But you can see how much his physical condition has improved since I got him.

he's shown a huge improvement already Ethan - great work!
He does have some very nice colours - do you have a similarly coloured female to go with him?

Thanks guys. I do have a couple of females that I'm thinking of putting him with. But haven't decided who's to be the lucky girl(s). He had only been in country for a couple of weeks when I got him. So I want to let him settle in a bit more before I put him in with other animals. But I'm glad he's progressing so well.

@ Drillman, unfortunately I don't know what his locale of origin is. Importers rarely take time to keep track of that sort of information. Especially when it comes to cheap $5 animals like tokay (not that that's what I paid for him...but the importer likely did).
