Wow. This is the biggest collection of roseas I have ever seen.

Our Rosie is a little of both.;P
I can hold her, but she hates it when I touch her stuff:?
She's nutty , I guess:)

That is the peril of getting your spouse involved in your hobby. Now our "addiction" pretty much runs unchecked. :eek:

My G. rosea is docile, 5+" and over 10 years old. Handled by 100's of students, perfect track record, none bit, none flicked.

my NEW rosie is very sweet and docile--and she's rather active, too! in fact, RIGHT AT THIS VERY MOMENT KIDS, she's climbing around her enclosure.

My rosie is a sweetheart.

She is very active when out of her tank, but pretty pet-rockish while shes in her tank.. Shes been handled by a couple dozen people (including 2 year olds) and has never given any indication of volitility. No hairs shed, no fangs out.
