Edwin is a older gentlemen. He's about 6-7 years old, he's very particular and his old age does shine. I've had him about 2 1/2 years old, he was given to me along with his mate. He will allow you to pick him up but not for very long and he gets agitated and wants back to him home or running around. He is on live crickets, lettuce, blueberries, also a weekly diet of one or two live pinky mouse or rat. Those are his favorites. He needs to go to someone that will give him a bigger home and some attention and space to run and be his old self. I've grown very attached to him so I will be leary.
