Since 2015

A friend suggested we try making starters in 2012. That was successful and yummy, but it died off a couple years later. Kenny was born in 2015 when I decided to restart the baking.

Characteristics

Kenny gets angry if he doesn't get fed every 12 hours. You can only skip 1 feeding without him pouting. He will tolerate the fridge for a week at a time, but you have to bring him back and feed him a few times before putting him back in the fridge.
