in memory of ronnie

a few of how she was and what she brought me,

 

[msjinkzd]

She was awesome, great shots. Those ones of her with babies are just nuts! How many of her babies do you still have?

thanks rach we all loved her. thought my son (4) would be upset the most as he always wanted to go in the kitchen and watch them/ her. but nope am the worst

all in all i have about 30ish babies left of different sizes from her last to broods.

the question i have is do i keep daddy? well yes of course.....but.......do i let him mate with some of his offspring when they grow.....??????

 

[msjinkzd]

gosh, I have no idea. I can't imagine that they would be too discrimanatory in the wild. Lets hope some cray expert chimes in!

am sure he wont mind insest, but its how i would feel......i would get him another mate (fem) of course but..........to be honest am the only breeder in the UK who has / had a happy breeding pair, and regular.

you may find them in lfs but there either wild caught or shipped in from abroad.

in the 2 years ish i have had them i have only seen them once in a lfs...

sorry just mummbling now and going to shut up, )
