    What is Boris?

    Hi all, I've asked this in the "what breed/gender" area but thought perhaps I'd be able to get an answer here: Would you kindly say if "Boris" is a girl or a boy and also what breed please? I hatched him/her out about 4 or so months ago I believe Many Thanks

    What are we?

    Hi all, I've been lurking here since getting some girls last spring but I've finally decided to register and get posting a little.
