These little babies were rescued with their mom, Donburi, shortly after she had given birth to them. Despite a rocky start at life, they have grown to be strong, active little ones! They're currently fed Fatpouches' Seed Mix and crumbled Mazuri Lab Block.
Here's a short introduction to the 4 cuties:
Oyako (Pearl Female) : Oyako is a calm girl that is oblivious to her surroundings. She does run away fast from hands but is alright if slowly approached. (Adopted)
Tonkatsu (Standard Male): Tonkatsu is a little shrieky, especially if grabbed, but would climb onto your palm if done slowly! He is generally skittish and is fast to dodge things that scare him. (Adopted)
Shirasu (Pearl Male): Shirasu enjoys being held and would (frantically) climb up your palm if he sees your hand! (Adopted)
Tempura (Standard Male): Tempura loves to interact with hands by giving soft nibbles and licks. (Adopted)
The 3 males are bonded and can be adopted either singly or as pairs.
