6. Cuttlefish

The two areas I did my own thing was take them out every day from their tort table for a walk round. Food available at all times! My husband gave them pellets (that I kept in an emergency) as he found they liked them! Beatrice was overweight.

Bertie arrived with a bumpy shell that has smoothed out in comparison and Beatrice has remained same shape as she has grown.

I wished I had found this forum earlier. Anyhow, they both happily live outside in the day and in their house at night.

Not sure if this really answers your question.

You may need to start a new thread as this one started 2013, so may be missed by the experts.
Thank you.
I'll make a new thread later.
