I decided its a long weekend, the weather is lovely, I can put off starting cages right away and do a photo dump of all (or most) of my Oldies. There's so many here right now. So I will put up the pics and a teeny bit about them.
Oldest to youngest in this group
Alfie (35.5 mo) â Midland, Ontario boy. Been sick since I got him last year, but it never stopped himâ¦he was a go-go-go boy, with plenty of kisses when he visited. His eyes have been filmy and his coat tatty, but his weight and condition has been phenomenal. Last night he finally looked his age, with his eyes closed and him wanting cuddles and strokes under my chin. Sweet Alfie of the tatty fur.
Peony (32 mo) â the surviving Tube Girl, still have NO clue how the girl made them live in ferret tubes and a ball. Her coat is still soft, but she walks so low on her hind feet. Sweet girl with people but had a rough time with Alfie in the beginning, as they were both alphaâs in their respective groups.
Grooming on her butt LOL
Althea (31 mo) â Althea was a snake food mamaâ¦we convinced the guy that we needed her to finish rearing her tiny pinkies (they were the only ones being offered), but she bit him so he wanted to make sure she died painfully because of itâ¦she makes a cute corpse doesnât she? All her babies were adopted out but Althea stayed. Sweet, blind with cataracts, the âMamaâ of the group and recently reunited with Xanthe.
and the youngster Xanthe (29 mo) whose only issue is a small tumour that doesnât grow on her side, and and the fact that she cannot bound in her wheel anymoreâ¦she rumba walks really fastâ¦soo cute to watch from behind
She arrived at 4 weeks, left for a bit then came back as a young girl to stay.
Inca (29 mo) was part of this group (Althea and Alfie). I do want to mention that Inca's demodex mites seem to be resolving after 6 weeks of ivermectin (4 weeks injected, 2 weeks orally). I realized when Jenny was over on Thursday night that Incas face is not as pink, and fur is growing back. Here's 3 pics to show you the progression and make up your own mind.
April 15 - bare shiny skin, dark pink spots
May 4
May 17 closeup, skin is normal and fur is growing back on bare spots
