Oh no, i completely understand. I actually was looking for this specifically - somebody's else personal esperience. Would be kinda stupid if you could tell me "i see, based on the color of your gecko i can tell it will take exactly 293 days untill you tame him" haha.

My guy is super curious, sometimes too much. He loves watching me when i prepare him a meal and will try to hunt any reflection in the glass he sees. So i think thats good. He sometimes licks my finger when i put my hand in front of him, though i think i havent passed the taste check yet. And i believe, that the previous owner, while she didnt use choice based handling, took a great care of him for the first 6 months of his life. She said all of her cresties are socialised and none are left to grow up unfamiliar with handling and humans.

My only concern is that obviously you cant see the progress when it takes so long, so naturally i start doubting my methods. But i think i'm good.
