: morgan's right, they are very active. but it's their fun personalities that have made them one of my favorite. the male's tail is very long and thick. i've seen some russians with tails over two inches. my female's tail is skinny and less that an inch long. they are mating at least four times a day! they do love to be outside! when it gets too hot though they aren't too active and like to burrow in the dirt to keep cool. i heard they like mar, apr, may best june july and august they lay low and september they are fairly active again. good luck.
