Thanks guys! I'm very stoked with these little ones. They've all had their first scoff on Sunday so its all happy days. a bit hectic with 10 baby puffy's at the same time but hey ho its all good!

I will try and post some current pics, their colours are coming through very nicely now.

Cheers

Massive congrats man!
If only the authorities could understand that this is the only true way of protecting a species from the pet trade, well done.

Thanks copperbob! I'm waiting for Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife to get back to me on adding the youngsters to my existing permits, shouldn't be an issue though. I know they have refused every Dukuduku Gaboon application I've heard of. That is the main reason we got these from Ugandan origin and the rest from Tanzanian stock. I still think breeding the local ones for relocation in some of the newly declared protected areas could be well justified.
