She's so small, Kresh was not that small when we got him.

Here they are together. He is doing really well with her. And yes he does have some pyramiding, when we got him we were not told everything we should have been. So now working on making him as healthy as can be.

They make me very happy. Can't wait till they are running around the back yard!

The new baby is a cutie. Kresh doesn't look pyramided. He looks great for a 6 month old. You've done a good job.

It makes me happy that the standard for what most people consider pyramiding is changing.

Thank you! She is super cute. And I'm very happy to hear that Kresh doesn't have that bad of pyramiding.

I agree Tom, it is nice to see the pyramiding pendulum has swung so far in the right direction.

Oh wow poor thing. Glad she's in such good hands now. I hate that I let that happen at all, but as you can see it was already starting when we got him. In the 1st pic of Kresh you can already see it. Where we got him had him on alfalfa pellets, eating iceberg, and no water dish and told us that was what we needed to do with him. The only thing we changed from the pet store was we feed him dark greens instead of iceberg. It wasn't till a few months later I found a different forum that told us what to really do with him and I felt really bad that we were doing it so wrong. Now he seems happier and we are going to make a outdoor place for them soon.
