I don't know if it's a record heat wave, but it sure feels like it. Everyone is miserable.

Gorgeous, GoPokes. Now I want mauves. I like them over Lav/Self-blue.

 

[GoPokes]

Thanks. Yeah the lacing on their chest is pretty good. I just can't get a picture of them straight on. They seem to know when I have a camera and run like crazy. I have hundreds of pictures of chicken butts.

They look good to me!

I think we should come up with a different name for them though, I don't like the word mauve. LOL.

How big are they GoPokes?
