Hi Guys,
I have had her just over two years. She is a stunning captive and quite strange to look at. I will get some photographs at the weekend. Its kind of funny in a way. You see old dogs get that grey tint around the mouth/face. Well, this girl has a yellow/orange hue around her mouth and face.
I feed her once every 2 to 3 weeks. Give her periods were I will not feed her for a month or two. She does great. She is healthy, lean, sheds great and active. Man, if she would reproduce can you imagine the genes she would be bringing back to the hobby. I'll keep pairing her each year. You never know, one year I might just get lucky. She has never reproduced in captivity so there may be little hope.
Warren
