I agree, BTS are one of the best larger lizards. I'm 16 and have had my bluey for 2 years now. Even when i got him as an subadult, he was quite tame and never shown any signs of wanting to bite (especialy considering i keep an Indonesian, not one of the most friendliest of BTS, and most likely WC too). All he ever does is bluff when i want to pick him up, he's not picky about food. In a few weeks after i purchased him, he was as healthy as a CB (of course, acording to me ^^). Planning to get a female for him quite soon, maybe babies! Especialy now that the shopkeeper said that the exportation of gigas is going to be restricted in Irian Jaya.

P.S : always try to get CB animals whenever possible! I got a WC coz thats the only kind they sell here in Indonesia . The only CB reptiles are leopard geckos, perhaps some imported snakes, and some tortoises & turtles.
