thanks again for loooking im pleased you liked the mum her name is Benjie we have had her about 25 years as did her previous owner who bought her from a petshop when she was a lot smaller than she is now .i reckon she must be in the region of about 60 years she was one of a pair the lady bought i have them both now Benjie is 250mm and around 3kg my other girl is Lassie she is 270mm and 3.7kg.the male was purchased from the same shop 5 years previous to the girls so may be older.
