Mangroves with added Angryface!

[Saedcantas]

Owzy's recent topics inspired me to snap a few shots of the kids while weighing and feeding tonight. They're a funny pair, Yellow who shall now be known as Java gets upset from the word go but he lacks stamina, he struck the box 15 times while I was getting ready to feed him, open the box and not a sausage till the food appears! As for White who will now be known as Bali He acts all sensible till you open the box then he's all hissy, strikey and general all kinds of murderous intent
One thing I ought to mention is that, when I first brought these home and needed to inspect them, they were freehandled, at the time this was possible and these animals had been manhandled and forcefed (totally needlessly...) before I got them. This rapidly became completely impossible even if I'd have wanted to, once they destressed in their new environment and were left alone for 4 weeks completely, they were born again meanies as they should be











Cheers!

Nice, like the white!

I am trying to improve my photography skills for my travels & find myself posting them on here when there is an hour or two spare at work... humour me lol
