this guys getting his arse kicked around.
but he still doesnt know when to stop trying to compete with the barras for fod.:grinno:
 
nice lookin venz, hope the barra thing gets sorted out. my venz gets its butt kicked by my jag half his length, but there both babies and he oughta grow out of that quickly. doesnt have anywhere near the aggro attitude that my sveni male has.
 
Lol he won't quit pikes will get there share of food one way or another even if they get beat up it should tuffen up quickly
