I like that idea of a monthly photo with the same item. May have to start doing that.

Yeah Mj we are expecting them to get big. we have a room set aside for them when required and make sure they are handled very frequently, including tap training to hopefully keep them as friendly as they are now.
I knew before hand that they grow fast but when i look back at the weight gain its really fast.
You should definately get one Carlb, if the dwarfs have the same character as these.

Have added a short video Jane took while I was trying to weigh Saru. It actually took twice as long as the video but she was too busy laughing at me to video it from the start.

Yeah Bob they are both growing up fast. We have noticed that Gala loves to climb, so we bolted some branches for her up high in her viv, which she loves. Saru however prefers the ground.

RP. These guys are strangely unique compared to our others. It is bandied about a lot concerning their intelligence, but they do seem to remember and work things out. This coupled with their confidence and feeding response makes tap training and respect very important. They are an absolute joy to handle and observe.
If dwarfs have the same temperament as our guys I would definitely recommend getting one.

Have updated weights, lengths and pictures for April 2014 on first post.

Still very friendly, inquisitive and naughty. They get more time free roaming since the rep room has been snake proofed. Although they still find places to be naughty, like sitting on top of the baby royals rubs.

I think that video was the last time I used the scales for these guys. for obvious reasons I use a bag and digital luggage scales (the ones you hang the bag from ) now.

They both had a bit of a growth spurt in the last couple of months.
Gala has overtaken Saru for length now but not weight.
As soon as they arrive they will be getting their next viv upgrade from the 4 by 2 to 6 by 3.
Both still very placid, inquisitive and confident.
They are both quite happy to approach you when out for a wander and Saru actually crossed the garden to our daughter then climbed up her on his own and settled on her.
Lengths and weights are on the first post.
