Zaf Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I got my first adult E. Chopardi today and was disappointed at how skitso it is. I took my Javanica out of the box it was very calm, crawled on my hand. I put my hand down in the cage it slowly crawled off. I opened the Chopardi box and it jumps out on my hand running full speed up my arm and didn't stop running the whole time i was taking it to the cage. I get it to the cage and it hits the ground running up the side of the cage and all around like a crazy person(roach). Is this common behavior for the Chopardi or did I get one that is just diifferent from the majority. I have had Javanica's before and they have always been so calm and slow moving. I was hoping the Chopardi would be the same with no such luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephyr Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I've noticed smaller males of most hissers tend to be particularly skittish. Your females and larger males should be much calmer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
