    Hey! We are great thanks! Perky is getting bigger and stronger by the day. He’s put on 2g in weight and his shell is clearing too. His little character is starting to shine through and he’s just a joy to sit and watch. He’s definitely a big part of our lives now. 😁

    I did wonder Thanks for the reply. I did also question the “lavender essential oil” myself. I don’t feel comfortable applying it. Do you know of any other treatment?
