Bindi Update

Postby JWSR » Sat Sep 29, 2007 3:16 pm

I may have mis-spoke when I said, in Irwin's update post, that Bindi wasn't growing at as fast a rate as Irwin has been.

I weighed and measured him yesterday, and to my surprise, he's doing just as well. He's 2 months-10 days old, 12.68" long, and weighs 161 gr. I think it's because I'm seeing him and Irwin both every day and not noticing Bindi's growth because of the size of Irwin.

I'll get some new pics up as soon as I can.

Anyone think it would be relatively safe to put them both near each other to shoot some pics of them together. Of course I'd be ready to separate if either decided to chomp, but would I be fast enough? I wouldn't want any damage done to either. What's your experience with this?

You should be okay. I would see how the react together first and if things are find, then I would step back with the camera.

It's a "just in case," bone crusher. I've just always had the habit of never putting any different species, or even sub-species together for any reason. That way I know nothing unexpected can happen. Just a precaution.

Well then, I'll give it a shot so you can really see a difference in these two guys! :D

Thank you all for your advice! :)
