Well, that didn’t take long[emoji39]! My niece will be raising this little fellow... expected her to long on soon and start asking question about raising leopard torts![emoji16][emoji39][emoji38]
I let them be expecting nothing. These were her 1st nest and I didn’t know if Eros was ever successful or if either of them were even fully fertile yet.... guess I know now![emoji57]
