My pair are both WC animals and have breed for me with out problems. I feed mine Silkworms but I'm meaning to try a few other kinds. All I did was put them in a bowl. Came back the next day and they where gone. For the hell of it I put some buy their heads and they go nuts over them.

It's all trial and error with them really ask anyone. Even Kevin hasn't got to the bottom of them yet. . . though I got my money on him to figure them out first as he seems to do with everything else lol. There seem to be a good amount of people working with them just no one producing any new data on them that is being distributed for the community. I found only 2 books on them and they are pretty much beginners guides to Tokays. . . the kind that are maybe 50 pages. Dont get me wrong they are pretty good books just they dont go in depth about alot of things. So for now until some of the guys pull together on this one we all pretty much have to help each other out with what does and doesn't work.

I wish this forum got more attention that it does because Tokays are awesome animals if people can get over the reputation of them being demon spawn. I've been working with mine like Kev said and even though they are wild caught they seem to be calming down when I'm around. . . well the male for sure but they female still dont want much to do with me. You see alot of people with tame Tokays that just needs to get out to the public that you can handle them like any Beardy you see. If that happens the market will open up, more people will start breeding them, less WC will be in the market and alot less junk animals will be sold. .

I'm done with my rant for the month. . . any comments feel free to leave after the beep. . . . BEEP!
