Tail Dropping

[RaVeNo888o]

what would you have to do in order for a crested to drop its tail. would you pretty much have to grab it by its tail? i would like mine to keep theirs lol

[HeatherRose]

Pretty much! Don't pick up your cresties by the tail, when handling be careful of their tails...

[Zoe]

Yes, or scare it terribly. And don't forget, crestie tails dont grow back.

I agree with all the statements above, i also heard of females losing thier tails when a male is trying to mate.

I had a male once drop his tail for no apparent reason that I could figure out. He had been shipped to me. I placed him in a nice secluded tank in a darker room with no traffic so he wouldn't get spooked. The next morning I found a tail on the bottom of the tank...

I think they are cute even without a tail. and they can still produce beautiful babies!
