Could one of you show me a pic of your cage. I was just reading a great fact sheet about chinchillas That shelley sent me I would hate to get something that the kids could not look after. I'm thinking a guinea pig might be better. I did have one years ago put like you pete I lost it in bad weather do you keep them inside during the winter

Heres the best pic I have of some of my hutches.

I do usually bring them in, but we had a cold snap before I had chance. They were getting quite old though. I bring them into the half of the shed that the torts don't live in where I just have indoor guinea-pig/rabbit cages for the boys and a deep sided tortoise table for the girls.

Nice fish, but give me the piggies anyday... They are gorgeous.

I have always wanted a big koi pond in the garden, but it has never happened, and with the Newfies may be that is a good job!

The previous owner of our house used to breed Koi and he had a pond 15 feet in diameter and 5 feet deep, but when his daughter was born he sold off the fish and filled in the pond with rubble. It was too much work to dig it out again so now my fibreglass terrapin pond sits on top of it.

Hey lovely fish! rather large aswell

alot of people on a fish forum will take pictures of some of the big fish held in their palms to show sizes and coloration or something...

Nice pigs

Thanks guys. Watch this space as I think Solos ready to give birth anyday now, any bets on how many she will have?
Tay, you can handle them like that, but I prefer not to.
