My boyfriend recently got a nasty Tokay, as you some of you may know. He's been joining forums (I don't think he's been approved here, yet) and researching taming techniques.
He came upon the idea of using vinegar to discourage agressive behavior. The basic idea is to squirt a small amount of the stuff into his mouth within 3 seconds of agression so that he assosiates it with the bad taste.
Now, this was posted on another herp forum I frequent and I saw no objections to the idea, and this user says he's used it successfully on other reptiles, dogs, cats, and even horses.
We'd both like to hear what you guys think. :main_robin:
(Posted it in general because, if it is safe, a similar method could be used for leopard geckos and other reptiles.)
