New pic of Big Old Broad and Orion.

Just wanted to show off Broad's size. She's doing very well. She's increased from 135 to 160 grams in the past several weeks. She's still a little thin in the hips, but her parietal crest is finally starting to fill (slowly). It takes Orion a few minutes to figure out she's not a guy He probably feels like he's in a scene from the movie "Attack of the 50 foot Woman." Unfortunately by the time he's interested, she's turned peach with dark green bars, and gaping. I'm not sure if I'll get these 2 to breed or not. I'm not ready to breed her yet anyways. I want to make sure she's good and filled out before I actually let them copulate (if they will).

is your Orion, any relation to kammerflage kreations orion? he even kinda looks like glorfindel

No, he is of no relation to Glorfindel. He is the son of Typhoon, but I'm not sure who owns/owned Typhoon. I got Orion about 3 months ago at about 15 months of age. He is spectacular, the pics don't do him justice. His reds and blues are simply electric. I have a purple bar female that is the daughter of Spiderman Jr. from Kammers that I hope to breed with him too, but she's sick right now. We've been battling an eye infection for over a month now. I aslo have a little cross bred girl from Kammers that is the daughter of Elros that I'm hoping to breed with Orion in about 3-4 months. She should be about 8 months old at that point. Then there's always Broad too. Who knows what will happen with that. Time will tell. Thanks for the reply. Keep in touch.

Yup. Too bad she scares the bejesus out of Orion. She's not interested in him that way either, at least yet. It might take her a little bit to get her groove on, but that's ok, cause I want her to fatten up a little more first anyways.
