I've been viscously attacked

Was doing cage maintenance for the chahoua geckos, put my hand around a log slab to move it somewhere and my 60 gram male was waiting for me. He managed to latch onto my pointer finger, death roll with it in his mouth, and gape at me with my flesh hanging off his jaw. Hard to get a picture of it, but I can count 5 lacerations from seperate teeth in my finger. Hurts more than any storri bite, and even more than my yearling chondro bites. I'll let the pics do the rest of the talking haha.





This is the pic with my skin on his mouth lol


Still hasn't stopped bleeding really.

I know your chuckling to yourself because it doesn't compare to a retic bite, but for a little 8 inch gecko, I am more than impressed lol

Re: I've been viscously attacked

It's funny, geckos don't look like they would be aggressive to me, but that's quite a bite from a little 8 inch lizard.

Wasn't that the 7 footers roaming around free In the Fatal Attraction Series??? LOL!!! You never know though. My wife thinks that a snake's first thought if it escapes is to hunt for us and choke us instead of making a fast getaway......
