This is about the only way my male pastel will sit still. He is still locked in breeding mode, pacing his cage, not eating, and my girls are done for the most part, so I put him in with this 1100 gram girl to chill out with. She is small but very stout, and probably won't be ready till late fall, but if she can keep him busy for a day or two then that is good enough for me.

This girl laid another nice clutch for me this year. She laid 7 eggs on June 2, funny thing is she laid 7 beauties last year on June the 2nd.

Here are three of her kids I kept from last year.



She was bred to the same pastel male as last year so I am hoping for a few more keepers.
