Vampire's Kiss

The Vampire's Kiss" The huge Transylvanian leeches are beautifully colored leeches. They are also believed to be the basis of Bram Stoker's novel Dracula which portrays a human being - an earl, who indeed possessed leech-like behavior and was believed to be a leech disguised in human form. Some species of this variety of leech grow very large in size and are preferred as leech pets because they are easy to care for. Giant leech pets are at least 1 year old. These leeches can reach even a year without feeding and when they do start moving, they are slower to move, but much sturdier than their smaller counterparts. Giant leeches can be fed every 3-6 months as pets. These leeches will expand to quite a size large.Since it does not require much maintenance and feeding, it is considered the perfect aquatic pet for some who have decided to try something different. Giant leeches are intelligent creatures and very lively and fun to keep and care for. They have a mind of their own and also a personality. If you're looking for another leech with a personality, the buffalo leech is another alternative to the tray and raise, although they are much more difficult to maintain and care for. If you buy two pet leeches of this giant size and keep them together, they will eventually mate in the spring and one may become pregnant and give birth to a leech cocoon full of leeches.
