Thanks for the comments

I must admit when I look at the photos I notice his smile, but then I am used to the eyes with Momma.
I do think the photos make him look like he is made of clay, just by the colour and finish lol.

He is so friendly, less than 24 hours after getting him he was on the grass roaming free and walked straight over to my son to say hello and and stopped right next to him. The next day roaming free again he walked over to my son and daughter, this time he stopped pressed up against my daughters leg as she was sitting down.

I am even more impressed with the species than I was before and that is saying something.

Gary

Gary, Bunk is amazing! His face is so comical in a beautiful kinda way. He does look like he's made of clay...What did your daughter think when he pressed up against her leg? Did he scratch her?!!

Bindi it is the same one, Big Momma is about 1 cm longer and weighs about 20g more.

Cheers Gary
