RichBanfich Mar 11, 2004 09:00 PM

hey everybody, just got home from work and checkd my incubator and a bunch of baby hatchlings were ready to go in their tank when one started atacking my finger. couldnt believe it. i carefully placed him/her in the tank and he was taunting me mouth open ready to strike and expanding his sides out and shifting to the sides. at only a few hours old. UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!!!!! ive never had any of my own produced attack or bite me ever. but ive had my share of startled juvies that ive purchased bite a few times. goes to show why these little guys are the best.just had to share. ill post some pics up soon.

It cracks me up when babies that couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag are willing to fight a finger they can't even get their tiny mouths around. I have had quite a few babies act all crazy out of the incubator over the last few years. It is good for a laugh every time. I think I even have a few pics of hot-headed babies in action. I will look through my HUGE picture stash and see if I can find some.
The spunky ones are usually the healthiest and smartest babies in my experience.
