Hi Julie,
> Greetings! I am looking forward to hearing your talk!
Thank you,I hope that you will enjoy it.
>So you think this is a case of really bad rubber jaw, eh? Could very well
be. Thanks for the input,
It is only a guess,but I think it sounds like it.Do you know if they have
putten it out to get a closer look ?
When they try to get it out it will be stressed, an for sure show the
typical weard movments of a soft boned
Gecko.If this is the case my opinion is that the animal have gone to far and
the freezer is the most humain
alternative.
Se you in Daytona
