I bought my tokay about a week ago, hes a baby, but is starting to grow. To get an idea of his size I feed him med. size crickets. My first question is with regard to feeding. Should I give him some wax worms to help growth or is that just a way of getting him fattened up? If yes, about how many? I try to give him a small wax worm every other night. Ones that are too long I spare him.
My next question is about handling. I know they are aggressive and handling causes stress, but does anyone suggest handling him while he's young? Could this help tame him or just stress him out? Also, if I do, any handling advice? (where to hold, how to go about grabbing him, will he be able to wiggle loose and get away)?
Thanks in advance.
