It's no harder than any other pokie, of which I wouldn't recomend them to anyone new to the hobby. They're fast, defensive, and very hot.

As far as knowing it's a girl, I just looked under her skirt! ;)

Is she really that bright blue without the flash?

She's actually a really nice royal blue. The flash washed out most of her true color. I wanted better pictures, but that's the best she'd let me get!

Our "Spoils of War" Ghanima. She's eating (and doing the "Dance of Joy") on the front of her Viv in all but the first pic.
Mina only checks on her four times a day. Or atleast that is all she ADMITS to doing.
