Tokay collection

roxy0679 May 09, 2011 10:25 PM

Hey all
I have always LOVED tokays. Had a pair a few years ago.. but long story short some jerk has my entire past collection. I got lucky earlier this year and managed to find a group of breeding Tokays along with a lone rescue male. I took out one of the groups adult females and introduced her to my rescue male, Capt Jack. The group also came with nearly a dozen hatchlings, from fresh out the egg to several inches long. The girls have laid quite a few eggs, candling them shows nice little wiggly babies almost done developing. Cannot wait for them to hatch!!! Capt Jack started calling last week. LMAO if you have never heard it before will surely have you scratching your head for a bit trying to figure out what the noise is. So watching for eggs from them
well anyhow here is a few pix..

nice pix I have tried twice with tokays and failed both times, they both died one never ate and lasted 4 months it was sad the other was young and ate like a champ and grew like crazy for a few months and then slowed down and evantually died. It was sad both times I really tried hard to if I ever try again it will be with a captive breed baby. the first was so skinny when I got it I knew it was a bad choice and did it anyway
