Lilly

Tank has a girlfriend! He and Lilly (Kane) are exploring a new enclosure. Tank is already making his moves, but she seems pretty uninterested.

In the top picture, Lilly is on the left with millet on her lip. In the lower picture, she's on the right.

Is that new as in new new? Have you gone through parasite testing and isolation for a couple months with that one? Wouldn't want to expose your boy to untold badness... and from the women I've met, it's to be found...

>>Is that new as in new new?

That's a yes. And I deserve and accept the finger wagging (and possibly even an arse-kicking) for introducing them immediately.

In other circumstances, I would absolutely have done a quarantine. In this specific case, I felt the risk was very minimal. This girl has been at Doug Dix's facility for several years (three or four?) with no sign of illness. Her most recent cagemate there was a benti - I figure he would never risk a benti's health with a questionable animal. So shame on me, but I went for it.
