Re: Doesn't pin eyes
No, even if I talk as I come up to him he still will lash out. He walks around with the dogs and cat and around the house ok, I guess he might have some sort of diminished sight that makes him scare.

( my poor mutilated fingers) I figured he was still going through a bit of bluffing so I ignored it and kept handling h...

Re: Lutino male (unknown parents) and want albino/ lutino ba
lol, after I posted it I thought I had answered myself about the violets!! But then I wasnt too sure just because his parents were that colour, it would be the same for him.... ;) and I hadn't heard about the ino issues you mentioned, :( in that case, I probably wont go down that road... I dont want...
