hi all.. I rescued two blue tounges the other day from a bobcat that was ripping down there home.. I decided to bring them home as there wasn't anywere good to relocate them at the time. since then I have decided to keep them since there settling in well. they are both very relaxed and haven't bitten me. I can easily handle them and one of them even eats from my hands.. since there settling in well and I have a more then satisfactory enclosure for them, is a an ok idea to keep them? also what is peoples opinions on food? I have looked into info on the net but I just want others opinions..

When I had mine I feed home veggies like carrot, apples and corn and the occasianal snail or banana each time I put in a snail he smashed them straight away

It is illegal to take native animals from the wild. You will need to put them back to where they came from asap.

I have spoken with national wild life they are coming on Monday to take care of them. I don't wanna just release them in aplace unsuitable..
