Quark is the same way. On both counts. :) Evon refuses to let him breed with her the first 2 days after birth. But Quark is right there in the nest with her while she's giving birth, and in between births lets Evon stretch her legs while he keeps the new little one(s) warm. I guess it's just a rare trait.
Einstein is not allowed in the nest for the first few days after Trinity has a litter. So sad to see him all curled up in a ball on the other side of the tank. :( I guess we just have some special pairs, huh? -Jackie & The Copper Dragon Clan >My Trixie was closer to giving birth than I thought - we now have >three new little squeakers!
