I've heard they are very tame and never bite, but I've heard that a million times. I was told cresties don't bite, but I've been nipped twice(1 baby and 1 sub-adult). I doubt they are aggressive, and any bites are probably by babies or hungry adults mistaking your finger as a worm. Still I have heard on a million sites they never bite. I've never heard of anyone getting bit by them. I'm planning on getting some next year.

::I love my auric's (one of my guys up top as a baby, and how she is today =)), but i find them less handable then the cresties for the fact that they "poop" on you like clock work. Well maybe it is just mine...lol. I am not sure about the leachies, but i am picking up a couple at the white plains show, so i will let you know. However from what i heard i would place them equal to the auric's Just be careful of their bite, you do not want to mess around with leachie teeth...hehe.
