I am getting really annoyed as none of my boys will flare for the camera. I have tried all sorts and they just won't have any of it. Can anyone help, i've got more chance of the girls flaring at me x

Try putting one into a smaller container that has nice clear sides. Pop a mirror at one end and snap away Smile

Tried that one, i'm sure they're just little scaredy cats, the second they see their reflection they run away x I tried them in my seperating jars with no joy

Put both males in seperate containers and put them side by side:)

other option is putting a cupped female in with him... but you'd prob find that if you have to move him from 'home' he will be timid... left for 15mins to adjust (make sure all light settings are same as when you want to take pics tho) , you should have better results even with mirror

Only one I can get flaring is the Turq, and he's happy doing it with boys and girls!

The other two weren't having any of it. Think I'll be going back to my old camera as well, the super expensive one is horrible to find the right settings!

So, I feel you're pain Crystal!
