Yesterday I went out shopping for 3 or 4 hours. When I got back I went to say hello to Bullet, and noticed that his beard was pitch black. Is this normal?
I took him out of the cage and soaked him for about 30 minutes, thereafter he went out into the garden in direct sunlight for about an hour. What fun he had, eating bits of grass, chasing and eating ants, and then as it was a blisteringly hot day here the flying ants decided to come out of their underground shelters. Bullet went into super hunt mode and must have devoured about 40 of these flying ants.
By the time I put him back into his cage the black beard was completely gone.
Here are some pics of Bullet swimming.
