Some of you may remember when i rescued 2 neglected AFT's from a classroom, here are some pics of the females progression over the past 3-4 weeks, she was 23grams when i brought her home, she's now a good 45grams and counting
i will get some pics of the male in about a week or 2

Hi bro, I really like your third picture, awesome all around. The white stripe on your AFT is killer, looks like a racing stripe. Keep up the good work!

Thanks dave, that happens to be my favorite pic of her next to the one of her sitting in my hand, im amazed at the progress she's showing, she's like a bottomless pit...eats everything in sight, i honestly though i was in for the lonh haul..but keeping her healthy and helping her gain her weight back has been very easy, giving her a pinkie every week along with 3 mealworms and 10 mealworms every 2 days, the pinkies really do wonders...lol

Nice job. Those guys were obviously in need of some TLC.

Hey Dan, good job. She is looking amazing . Looking at your pics makes me want one even more, especially that pic where she is sitting in your hand. My leos would have to be intoxicated or somethine before they would ever sit in my hand. Lol, I can only imagine an intoxicated leo, what a sad sight that would be.

Lisa, haha maybe when yours are older, ya never know, all my leos sit in my hand like that..i've even done it with my male tokay gecko..oh man...if i could only find that picture...i'll have to look for it..

hopefully When I changed their cages last time, it was a little cold for them out of their home (I have to get a heating pad), so all three crawled up on my hand at the same time and warmed their bellies on me. It was so cute.

tokaydude_2 May 17, 2004 09:54 PM

lol, i love it when they lay down to warm up theirr bellies..makes em look so fat after they eat...lol

Heres that pic of the tokay sitting in my hand

tokays can be tamed in time, i've had this guy for about 4 1/2 years since he was 2 minutes old, he was handled everyday for 2 hours..now he never even gapes at me..he's like a leopard gecko in a tokays body...LOL

lisa_cristin May 17, 2004 10:58 PM

Lol, it's so cute when they try to grasp you. Good pic
