I'm pleased to say that he is still holding on This is a picture of how he spends most of his time This is him trying to drink water from my palm I'm not sure what to do next. I don't want to mess with him too much and I suppose nature has to take its course. But he sure is a little...

Hi One of mine got me once, that's one heck of a strong jaw they have! Keep us posted on your journey with ??? (name) Marie x
