They do great and I still love them.
Whenn I enter the room they still hide for me, I think thats because I hardly handel them, I hope it will get better as they get adult.

I'm glad you posted new pictures Fred, but I would love to see some that show how they have filled out. Rugosa are so scrawny looking when they are born. It's cool to see them develop.

I will let the Western go to a larger group, it looks like they are both male and for me I enjoy the Shingles a lot more.
So for that I will get 1.1 T.r. pallarra back they are cb 2010 and 2011 I'm very exited to get them.
