yes, brb are a little more difficult to house then some of the others. i had a pair a while back but decided to get rid of them and go with carpets because they are a easier to keep and maintain in my opinion. also here is a pic i just took 5 mins ago after the hcq finished its shed and ate. i think you would enjoy one of these, this one is about 2 to 3 months old and is already docile. doesnt even try to attemp at striking me. its not highly priced as some of the other carpets but i think they have beautiful colorings and markings.
