                    it'll be under its adopted mums hiding from the thunderstorms we've had!! :hate-shocked:

                    I haven't seen any babies yet and I dare not look too often, don't want to upset the girls. :chicken:

                    They are sitting tighter than a dragon on it's gold! I will post a pic of them both sitting tight in a minute, after I've got the pic off my phone..
