They have been in them and poop on the pads but none will lay in them. A couple stand on the wood bars infront of the boxes. I thought about putting...

    Pearl onyx vs zombie

    I've come across pictures of a pearl onyx which to me looks exactly like a zombie. I'm wondering if they are the same breed just recognized by different names depending on breeders or if they are different breeds? If different how do you tell them apart?
