|  Growing boy... My male salvini is now approx. 6.0" total length. Check him out:       You can see a bit of a personality shining through there in those two middle pics. Reminds me of some of the oscar's poses as he does his 'feed-me' dance. Pics aren't as sharp as they could be because I purposely avoided using the flash in order to show his true colors more accurately. BV

| Thanks, Jessey! Well, let's see...I got him at around 2.0" (TL) back in November... Based on his growth so far and how he looks now, I'd guess he'll be somewhere around the 7-8" (TL) range within a year's time. Most sources I've come across say 6-8" for a male, but they have been known to get larger than that... BV
