Once you're a famous rock star your bank account worries will be over.... and someone else will look after your nuts!

I hope the looking after of nuts will involve a creature that's not rodent related :rolleyes:

Rofl ... well :D I'm back!!! The festival was fantastic but I still managed to get into trouble on the way to Gijs & Sabines ... My car broke down and I was stuck just south of Berlin for four days!!! ... Thankfully I did make it and managed to collect Snakys snakies :D = I finally own a pair of concinnus!!!! They're beautiful!!! I'll post the pictures once I get the camera from my guitarist :) ... I have more shots of Gijs & Sabines lair and ... of course ... there'll be shots of Xena and Xerxes.

Thanks once again to Gijs, Sabine and Hans. I'm a very happy concinnus owner!!!

He was on the supercute defensive here :) ... Xena's been eating like a pig but he's still being a fussy one ... I'll wean him of the worm flavoured fish eventually me thinks. He's my favourite at the moment :D he's started climbing onto my hand straight from the tank three days ago!!!

It's great to see some pics of my little one's doing good at their new home ;)
While they were here, the male's indeed favour fish scented by earthworms (much more than the females). Great that you like them! :D
You're very lucky if he's that calm with you.

He's been great and I think Xena is coming round to me to. She just shed yesterday and as I put my hand in to collect it both Xerxes and Xena decided they'd visit the pink thing that feeds and waters them lol :D

Thanks to my brother visiting I now have some shots of Xena for you ...
