I don't think he ate normal from day one . Shipping him to me in the winter without heat packs did a number on him . IMO . I just though he was picky . But looking back at it now i think he was having sinus /ear problems / runny nose the day i picked him up . i took him to a vet right away and they checked his lungs and said they were clear and he was fine , but the runny nose kept coming back , i would raise his heat higher than normal and it would go away . I do think it was goood he was on a antibiotic for 15 days . But i blew it letting the vet keep him for three weeks .

lesson learned !!

You know i really think him being shipped in freezing weather was foolish,tom crutchfield new better that was BS.Another thing i think is him being sick from shipping then getting settled in his new home stressed out,then the vet stressed out your rhino worse plus bad care bye the vet didnt let his immune system rebound till now being in the right care again and the immune system is working full force,just my opinion.Plus the great care you give him.

Well i mean it doesnt surprise me that tom crutchfield sent it that way,he ships all over the world, well fool it gets cold all over the world use damn heat pads and insulated boxes since you seem to not answer peoples ??? lol.You know about two years ago i contacted him about his rhino's and he seemed like he didnt have the time or day to answer a couple questions about his rhino so i passed on his rhino's,dont get me wrong his rhino's seem awsome great stock but his bad attitude turn me away,robk your rhino is awsome looking like toms stock but tom on the other had idk,just sayin.

The 09 Russetts is about 22" - 24" Fat bodied. Not a very nice temperament yet. All the rest are tame and handleable.

I got him from a breeder on Kingsnake. He was not handled previously. Raised outdoors in a large pen. I am sure he will calm down. Just working with him everyday.

When I buy something the first Criteria is Character of the seller. Second is quality of animals. Ty fits that order perfectly.
