Zergling was my one and only petstore bluey. He was my second ever reptile so I didnt know any better. I can 99.99% guarantee he was wild caught, as a) petstores think its cheaper to import ALWAYS with ALL species, and b) he's an Indo, and there are VERY few captive bred Indos. He is also very interested in making little skinks, so I'm pretty sure he's a boy even though he hasnt actually gotten a lady friend yet. Its on the list, as I would LOVE to have some CBB Indos :)

I've never had a bluey with a "temper" or that was aggressive...most blueys are DEFENSIVE not aggressive. He is skittish but will settle down for a very short handling session. My bf handles him almost daily, but we still havent gotten any farther than this with him. Thats ok though, since I have 5 :)
