I know I've posted a lot of babble to the list the past little
while. Here is more ;)
Lee and Crystal were successfully introduced last night after
only *three* days in the split tank. I held them in my hands and
let them sniff each other (UN-gloved hands, just shows how
fearless I am of animals) a lot. Just as I was pondering weather
or not to introduce them early, Lee leapt over the barrier! I was
sure they were going to fight. Lee jumped onto Crystal and was
grooming like crazy, sniffing, trying to play. It was soo
endearing :) Crystal lay still the whole time and only decided to
sniff Lee after Lee had finished. Anyway, so they're curled up in
their little can right now.
And my moms' gerbil, Miranda (aka Rainy), is a genuine,
no-mistake pear. I'm guessing 7 babies. Of course, my mom spoils
the gerbils rotten and gives them every type of health food you
could imagine so she may just have 4-5 really big babies. Anyway,
she has the 'coaster on legs' appearance Deb Rebel talks about
completely. Her mate, Lance (aka Mustache Man), is sweet as ever
and has calmed 'Randa down a bit, because she's so incredibly
hyper, and I think they'll be great parents. It's a burmese x
polar fox spot cross, with silver nutmeg, LCPS and CP nutmeg
grandparents BTW, if anyone is interested.
Sooo anyway, now that I've cluttered up the list a bit more, I'll
end here.
