No, I never post enclosure pics mainly because there's always someone that has a dig about something which really p's me off . And besides that I'm never happy with the enclosures myself so I wouldn't post something I'm not happy with.

We had a pair originally, but we had to have the female euthanised as she (we discovered) had huge tumours in her stomach. We had trouble finding another RTL and he went downhill fast, just before Xmas we were having to syringe feed him, we'd bring him in to the front room to sit with us just to give him some socialisation! Bless him. We managed to find a pair and once he was back up to health (although still a little depressed) we picked them up. And now he is a completely different animal, we're thrilled!!

The male we nearly lost is, you can sit and stroke him no problem, the other two will take food off you but aren't 100% confident around us, they'll soon settle down though.

They are beautiful, dont take this as a dig. i just question the ability of keeping them in captivity.
How do ou find them?
how much room do they have? how much interaction and stuff?
Just curious really, i think theyr amazing animals but i guess it goes with the typical primate keeping questions. Surely theyr too intelligent to keep properly with enough stimulation and acitivity?
