Handiling N. Levis Levis?

[leopardgecko95]

Do any of your all's levis tolerate handling well?

My N. l. levis will tolerate handling, but are very easily stressed and should be handled at a minimum.

My male hates to be handled, so I do it as little as possible. He thrashes around and holds his mouth open to look threatening. One of my females however, almost seems to enjoy it. I think she associates me with food now, so when I put my hand in her cage to clean it, she'll come out of her hide to greet me. Picking her up is easy, and she'll just sit on my hand for as long as I have her out.

Each individual levis is different, just like with all other geckos. But like Marcia said, it's best to only handle them when you need to. (Cage cleaning, stuck sheds, etc.)

Just curious, will they bite? And if they do, does it hurt?

I don't have any Levis at the moment, but they are just so darn cute that I think I'll eventually get one in the future, so I'm asking in advance...lol.
