idk how but i stumbled into the edible insect portion of Amazon...I might be in the wrong business. Like Like $8 for a few insects.
If it makes you feel better, I always manage to find weirder stuff online for just 8 dollars.

The coldest it was supposed to be last night was 28F degrees, but when I checked it at 8a it was already 31F degrees. Looking out the window, everything is white. We had a real good freeze. I picked all my oranges last night so they wouldn't freeze. One tree had 10 and the other had 2 dozen. The 10 oranges are very sweet and juicy. I had a hose dripping on the ground around that tree almost all summer, while the 2 dozen orange tree is next to the pond and I thought it would get enough water from the pond. I was wrong. Those oranges taste good, but they're not real juicy. I love oranges right off the tree.

Do any of your tortoises eat the fallen dried leaves ? Walker munches on them all winter.

I mainly use them to cover the hibernating turtles and tortoises, but right now, while the leaves are still fairly clean and in one piece, I gather them up to include in the babies' food each day.

t's probably why she's so fat. Went to the store for tort food, and it was just like driving on an ice rink. I was sliding sideways, glad I took those drifting lessons, my car is all big motor and my wide tires don't seem to have traction. weeeeee, I did a couple of do nuts in the intersection.....some jerk called the cops on me, what is wrong with this generation, all serious and no fun.I have a lot of fun in my car and people are trying to get me to stop. I drive a 31 yr old car cuz it's more fun than anything. Car handles great, 'cept I'm about to lose my license. Can you imagine I got a reckless driving in my own damn driveway...private property. I've asked for a JURY trial.
Looks like I'm gonna have surgery on my stomach. Told to stop drinking Mt. Dew, are you kidding or what?!!.
One of these days I'll tell you what mice feel like grabbing your naked boob. So that about catches you up on me.

Was at the Maryland house today, A couple pics, Walkers first outside enclosure.Picture 2632.jpg I built this in 1997 when he was still quit small. It has pretty much been empty since 2005. This next enclosure built at the same time houses some local turtles.Picture 2634.jpg Almost completly taken over by nature this was where the hatchling local turtles started out.Picture 2638.jpg The last is just a shot of part of the front yard.Picture 2637.jpg When I first put that shed at the bottom of the hill the delivery people would leave packages on it's front porch instead of bringing them to the house, so I put a mail box in front of it. Our real mailbox is out on the main street..

Lovely property. Is it vacant, or do you rent it out?

My oldest son and family are there. I'm seriously thinking about moving back to Maryland and renting out the beach house. The Maryland house is set up for 2 families to live in.

It's snowing! Meanwhile in WY, Jeff is stopped for the night, since I80 is closed due to winter weather.
