Cax Leech (Kahcks)
Basic Information
Genetics and Reproduction
Cax leeches produce very rapidly by asexually laying eggs underneath the scales of the prefered hosts, Saurians.
Growth Rate & Stages
These leeches hatch at about .1 inches long and can grow up to 2 inches in about a month.
Ecology and Habitats
The Cax Leech's preferred host is underneath the scales of a Saurian, where they sink their four mouth spines into the flesh beneth and begin to feed off the cold blood.
Dietary Needs and Habits
Saurian blood is by far the most nutritious for the leech and thus is what they consume almost exclusively.

The only facial features the Cax Leeches possess are 4 mandable/spines which they use to both latch onto their hosts and suck blood through.
Symbiotic and Parasitic organisms
The Saurian race's most common and annoying parasite.
Lifespan
Up to 2 years
Average Length
1-2 inches
Body Tint, Colouring and Marking
Cax eggs can sense the color of the surface they are laid on and are then tinted that color upon their hatching to aid in camouflage.
