I got a Indonesian BTS,he is a rescue and approx 1 1/2 years old.
He didn't even have a name.How sad?
He was hardly ever held or interacted with but that is about to all change and he will learn to love me or well errr I'll bug him till he does.
He was in constant hiding. When he was out noone paid any attention to him.
Well I don't really know the sex,I'll just call him a he.
For now I will call him Bonkers.
Pic is blurry,just click on it.

BTS are great lizards and even wild caught Indo's seem to tame down really nicely once they are in the care of the right person! Good luck with him! I would recommend getting a fecal examine though because an indo is most likely wild caught or farmed (every indo I have met has had parasites). You probably will never know the sex so just pick a personality that suits him and wait for him to prove otherwise! lol
