Posted by: zippybomb at Sat Nov 24 11:59:45 2012 [ Report Abuse ] [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by zippybomb ] Hi, i've been trying to tame my mangrove since I got him in May last year, and it hasn't been working out so well. The two techniques i've heard of are holding him all day every day even if he resists or bites you kind of thing, or the very slow, gradual process of starting off hand-feeding him and working from there until he's tame. I went with the gradual one, but I have a few problems. My monitor hides most of the time, and so I obviously can't hand feed him if he is burrowed under half a foot of dirt. He's also very scared of me, and so whenever I open the cage to hand feed him, he'll run into a hiding spot and be in a kind of flight mode, so he won't eat. I used to give him weekly soaks, but he was panicking the entire time and pooping on me as I carried him to and from the tub so I decided to stop. Does anyone know what to do from here? Any tips would be very much appreciated, I love him very much and I would hate for him to grow up and be terrified of me.
