Firebelly's

I recently got one firebelly. I was told that they do better in pairs and I was just wondering what your thoughts are on them?? I also cannot find a good place to get some. I am interested in getting 3 of them.

Please let me know what you guys think!!

Thanks

I keep 2 FBTs together and they seem happy. When the temps get warm, the like to hug each other a lot. The only thing you'll need to watch out for is eating - because when one has some food sticking out of its mouth, the other will try to grab N eat it. Most pet stores carry them - the petsmart, petco, and mall pet store have them here in the bay area

They do just fine alone but they are more active in pairs. If you have a Petsmart or Petco nearby then they usually have them there. Hope it was helpfull!
