This Rhino grew faster than any I've had or heard of. He was tame from the beginning, also. When he was about 2.5 years old he attempted to breed my female, Bubbles. She was not receptive at the time and retaliated by biting him on the jaw. Here is the result of that attack.
He needed mutiple sutures and his bottom jaw had to be wired back together. He healed nicely and you'd never know now that he'd been injured. I can't believe that I don't have more photos of him.
MMRR - jif said:There are several traits that I like from this line including large size, light coloration with usually lots of blue, and the easy going temperament. Loofah has been easy to handle from day one and he was so small when I got him. You might not find the same ease if you are starting with a yearling? Is Bob sold out of hatchlings this year? He is such a nice man and he knows his animals so well. Please, if you talk to him again, tell him that I sent you and that I said hello. He knows me as Jane from Michigan.
