Amethystbelle will become famous soon enoughAmethystbelle will become famous soon enough

Let me introduce to you…….


Four very special little boys. As some of you may know I lost one of my boys, Rupert last week. I actually vowed I wouldn’t get any more as it is so painful when you lose something so special. But on Saturday, I was surprised by four little baby boys. And they won me over straight away as only Degu’s can. They are so full of life and all such little characters and have helped me take my mind of Rupert a little bit and I think he would approve as he was a livewire himself. I have two names so far Ted and Dougal (inspired by Father Ted ) and I’ve got a few more to consider for the other two boys but as soon as I decide I will let you all know

Anyway to the bit I’m sure you will all enjoy I thought I would share a few pictures with you. As of yet I haven’t captured all four together on camera that seems to be the elusive picture but I will get it as soon as they've settled completely in and as soon as I do I will post a picture of them all

Here is 3 of them hiding from the camera, the fourth is in the stick pile



Here is two of them sat in the sunshine.



And a few other random shots i got of them.

Yeah they did seem a little camera shy but they are definitely getting more nosey and more adventurous and don’t seem to mind the camera at all now
