This is Bo! He's come to me from Allison (gingerpony) who's lovingly looked after him+got him healthy+feeding! Thanks so much allison!! He's 5 years old+soooooo handsome :) i am in love with him 
How handsome is he??:
My first proper cuddle with him :):
Exploring his new home:
Hard part now is to stop myself just staring at him through the glass! No handling until friday, when il only give him a quick weigh+then feed him, then another 2 hands-off days :(

Dums generally grow pretty slow, you'd expect them to mature at about 8-10 years old
i had him a couple of years and with correct housing and husbandry and a few drastic measures, eventually he started eating F/T on his own
he was with his previous owner for a year or so but only fed 4 times in that entire time!!
i only bought him because i truly believe he was really quite close to dying, very dull, lethargic, sunken eyes, pinched saggy skin, and as he moved through my hands i could actually feel every single rib 
i'm sure there's a good few posts about him in the archives on here 
he's still small and a bit on the slim side too but a healthy weight for his size. it's just as unhealthy to over-feed or power-feed for rapid weight gain  |

he's about 3-3.5ft, hard to measure him LOL! sure he'll grow fast enough tho! |

its sad that he wasnt taken care of properly,thought you might of put years instead of months,thinking that a 05 would be around the 6 mark,how big is he? |
