Well I waited and waited patiently and finally he arrived on a big plane 20th Feb. I was like a new mother at the airport, worried sick as to wether he made the trip ok...(it was 41'c here)
I am saying he is a he and named him Smeagol, but I am not 100% as he was not sexed. There is a pic included though that I think is a spur of a male, can anyone tell me??
Anyways, I am stoked. He has eaten a pinkie also without any fuss. So I take it he likes us
Oh and the age is 1 month...
