I don't know if I'd call them large, but they are definitely easier felt when embedded in your finger than crestie teeth :)
Not that she attacked me, she was grabbing a piece of grape from my fingers and missjudged a bit. It didn't bleed, but left a few tooth marks for a couple of days. My cresties have done similar bites but I never noticed any marks at all, and barely felt it.

Now if you want to talk big teeth, let a leachianus latch onto your pinkie finger. I found out the hard way when I fed Oscar a pinkie mouse. It seems she wanted more than one, and in a pinch, any kind of 'pinkie' will do. That bite bled for a while, and I've still got a faint scar. All from just a nip, not even a bite and chew, just a grab and let go. Oscar is a Pine Island (male turned female, if you're wondering about the name), I'd hate to get a GT bite.


:I think I read somewhere that aurics have large teeth.

:I haven't check, myself. Do they have large teeth? C'mon, stick your finger in there and find out . . .
